Yar. Are you thinking about making a Khmer Rouge then?

We have no comment on that at this time.

Antiochus VII · Jul 15, 2004

I just used the Khmer to replace the Dutch in my mod & renamed the Swiss Merc "Phk'ak" which works as a good counter to the Indian UU. Animation is wrong, but historically the unit makes some sense.

The Otomo Spearman is the best I've found so far. At least it's Asian with a polearm. But if Dom Pedro II is hinting...

Dom Pedro II · Jul 15, 2004

No more commitments. I do what I do when I do it. Period. But perhaps it will be done someday.

Outstanding work with the Jayavarman leaderhead! I had been using the one-era Ho Chi Mihn leaderhead all of this time. This is wonderful!

Here's some settings I'm using with the Khmer tribe in my mod:

City Names:
Angkor Wat
Hanoi
Saigon
Rangoon
Bangkok
Vietiane
Da Nang
Mandalay
Phnom Penh
Bien Hoa
Kampong Cham
Sara Buri
Ubon Ratchathani
Champasak
Udong
Battambang
Kompong Svay
Prey Nokor
Koh Ker
Beng Melea
Phnom Bokheng
Kampot
Siem Reap
Kracheh
Stungtreng
Muong
Melouprey
Sre Khtum
Phnom Chambak
Senmonorum
Siempang
Phnom Prey
Phum Saour
Phnom Chumreap
Phum Tik
Snay Pot
Phnom Udeng
Caturmukha
Isanapura
Hariharalaya

Military Leaders:
Jayavarman
Yasovarman
Suryavarman
Wijaya
Gajah Mada

But what should I list for Scientific Leaders?

Rita Poon · Jul 22, 2004

Hmmm, possibly architects-though most of the time the Kings got credit for designing the temples.

Martial artists?

Whoever wrote the Reamker?

Inventor of the alphabet?

BTW-didn't Gajah Mada work for the Majapahit empire? I have him as military leader for the Malay civ.

I like everything in the update except the fancier helmet in the middle ages - are you enhancing his clothes as well to match up with the changes so far?

P.S. I don't have too much trouble with the relative height of the faces in either the old or the new version, but after playing with the old one so long now its hard to get used to the new one! :crazyeye:

Rita Poon · Jul 31, 2004

Not yet done with the Middle Ages. Thats just the direction I'm moving in. Will absolutely do more work on his clothing. Here's an example of what I'm shooting for:

I have a fixed version of the Ancient .flc, just PM me with an address & I can email it to you.

Antiochus VII · Jul 31, 2004

I like that - the added richness/texture of the clothing will really put the middle ages together! Matching the detail/engraving on the helmet would be fantastic but I don't know if its workable. Regardless I think the Khmer will be well represented!

Drift · Jul 31, 2004

I think his face is now too short - I preferred the earlier draft in that regard. It looks squashed (I'm on a 1280x1024 too so that may affect it, but none of the Firaxis leaders look that squashed IMO)

Rob (R8XFT) · Jul 31, 2004

I'm glad I'm not the only one who preferred the original....

Rita Poon · Aug 1, 2004

OK, I just thought he looked more silly & in the spririt of the game. I'll hold off on this for a while & just re-upload the original with the fixed ancient era.

Antiochus VII · Aug 1, 2004

I still think both versions are fine - the helmet in the new industrial flc is a really nice touch too BUT there's a lot to do on the medieval I assume so we'll be pretty happy with whichever version we get!

Rita Poon · Aug 1, 2004

Thanks, Guys

The revision will contain:

-Adjusted Snake in the Ancient Era
-Pith in the Industrial Era
-Maybe still squash him, but a lot less. Like they are in the PCX's. I really like how Jayavarman looks on the diplomacy screen.

Will see what I can do with the Middle Age. Main problem I'm having is creating a texture map for the helmet. Can add a solid design, but no detail without the map. Know how to create maps UV Mapper for .OBJ files, but haven't figured out prop files yet.

Rita Poon · Aug 10, 2004

Alright, updated the picture again. This time he's not so squashed down. Still got a lot of work to do in the middle era.

How can I add civilization with the ace file. A lot of those leaderheads here its on .ace format. And its not working. What I'm doing wrong. I download some on flc file and works fine. Any budy can help?

Rita Poon · Aug 24, 2004

.ace format is a compressed format. Like a .zip file. You need Winace to open the files.

Get it here: http://www.winace.com/

JaseEmtP · Aug 25, 2004

Guys,
You can get WinRAR which will work with zip,ace, and rar files all.
BTW the leader head looks great. Downloading now

Rita Poon · Aug 26, 2004

Jase you, sir, are correct! Winrar is a very useful ap.

BTW-I gave up on the revision. Most people seem to prefer the original, in spite of the blacked out sun. So here's the updated ancient era files, with the fixed sun:

That's too bad, I liked the helmet in the industrial era - but he was just fine to start with anyway!
