Rise and Rule for Civ3:Conquests

Increasing the pollution reduction power of the RC makes sense. Good idea Roland.

For people interested in trying the treasure producing structures in a game, would somebody post tech assignments for the improvements?

I ask this becuase I don't really expect Civ 3 to be patched again and I am personally interested in trying a few games this way, if it means there are no SGLs.

Alternately I could request that an alternate biq be posted.

thanks

In earlier versions was a late middle age tech called "plantation systems".Or you could make them available with the techs which make the ressources visible they need.I would prefer a middle age tech.

However, since I read a workaround for the SGL-problem here on the forum(see post 30 in this thread: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=101826 ), shipments might find there way in RAR again, even if there is no more Firaxis patch...no promise on this, since everything has to be tested, but I'm optimistic.

I just ran RaR through the new pediaicons checker, here's the report -
(couldn't do a text file for some reason so I had to make a screenshot )

Rise and Rule 1.01

Simply put the .biq file into the …/Conquests/Scenarios folder (next to RaR1.00.biq)

Please also go to your …/Conquests/Scenarios/RaR/Art/Units folder; make a copy of the “Longbow Apache” folder, and rename it to “Apache Longbow”. In this new folder, rename the “Longbow Apache.ini” file to “Apache Longbow.ini”. (Better keep the original folder instead of renaming it, in future updates the txt files may be changed)

Since the RaR Barbarians are more than a small nuisance, it is also recommended to add the line NoAIPatrol=0 to your conquests.ini file (in the Conquests main folder). This will restore the PtW Barbarian behaviour. Note this will cause the AI to patrol its borders again, leading to lags on slower machines after the Ancient Era; for that reason, you can simply change the line to NoAIPatrol=1 once Barbarians are no longer important (usually around mid-Medieval). Still a matter of personnal preference, though.

Great, great, great.
Thank you sooooo much.
Awaiting that superb civilopedia work and Kal-el graphics.
Great work.

Thank you for the update!

there were actually several different techs that opened up different improvements to be built not just the plantations tech.

Thanks for the update! I'll get right on it.

Wonderful. Thank you for all your efforts. Your latest update is much valued and appreciated. Easily among my most cherished possesions.

I love this mod too....but isn't that a little much?

Ha ha, I understand. It's quality stuff.

A little strange thing: from ironclad to modern ships they waste 2 moves in sea and ocean. Is there an explanation or is it a bug? Thanks.

It is on purpose for ironclads...they were slow in history and rather designed to operate in coastal areas.RaR reflects this by the unability to enter ocean squares and slowed movement and even danger of sinking in sea tiles.So be careful with them.

Ok, I also find that the modern ones have the all as road flag checked so no problem with their movement. Thanks.

Are you sure about that "danger of sinking". How did they mod this as the technology that allows safe sea travel is far earlier in the techtree than the technology that allows ironclads (I know about the wheeled feature that disallows ocean travel). Maybe this is a civilopedia inaccuracy or am I missing something here?

You're correct Roland, I keep preaching that since ages

Of course you are right, I have forgotten for a moment that the unit settings regarding traveling water are always overwritten by the techs.I don't know at the moment what the civilopedia says, but the editor setting is "can sink in sea".Nevertheless it has of course no influence here.

yeah, that's one of those things that we tried to get changed for C3C, but they didn't think it was important enough.
