Double Your Pleasure - Mod under Construction

Here is the list of changes that I am planning to implement in the mod I am working on.

A more detailed description can be found lower down the thread. If while reading through this you see something that you know you came up with and I did not give you credit, just let me no and I will rectify the situation. I have borrowed heavily from others in compiling these changes. My goal was to take the best of what was out there and create something greater than the sum of its parts.

Sounds really awsome... can't wait for it.

the faster you animators can put together some of the units I have requested the faster the completed mod can be issued. Not to pressure anyone.

I am working on it one era at a time. Just started putting the ancient era together last night. All the techs are in place but there aren't any connecting arrows. I think that will wait until around the end. then I can post the ancient era as a beta and hopefully get some of you to try it out.

Are you gonna use my spy unit once its done? Anyone has permision to use any of my units (If I never said this). What are your requests? I might be able to help a bit.

I will if she's wearing hot pants!!! Just kidding she looks great.

Since you asked, I need the following units:

Ancient Age
Barbarian Rider - chinese rider with horns on his head
Elephant Rider - download the bmps in the unit forum
Elephant Archer - download the bmps in the unit forum
Chariot Archer – download the bmps in the unit forum
Trireme – Should be a simple conversion from the Galley - just put a bronze ram on the front and maybe throw a scary eye painted on the side
Longship – Should be a simple conversion from the Galley - just round off the front and put some round shields along the side

Middle Ages:
Longsordsmen – Bjorn is working on this but ... (edit: This unit is almost done - fabulous!!!!)
Crusader - Should be a simple snatch and grab job from ToT Crusader unit - I can supply the images much like I did for the HumVee
Musketmen - Animepornstar has put out a beautiful preview of a unit that is perfect for this, please let us know how that is coming along
Partisan – I am imagining the modern worker with a gun
Naval Mine - round ball floating in the water with some pressure contacts sticking out of it. - pesoloco, this one has your name all over it.

I would love to add these units:
Trebuchet
Bombard
WWII Infantry - I think the Sniper unit by zyxwyvu will work for this

I would like for someone to convert the mech infantry into an apc by removing the heavy cannon and replacing it with a light machine gun.

I would like to have an Apache helicopter instead of Blue-O's which is IMO more futuristic looking than the rest of the units in the game. Again I can suply the bmp images if someone will use them to make a usable unit.

This may be asking a lot. But I have supplied the bmps for many of the units already and would be more than happy to supply the ones I mentioned above.

sounds very ambitious and a lot of fun. I think it would be a great addition, if not a little difficult to get your ball bearing down to the new options available at your finger tips. I'd suggest a really easy to use and see readme/mod post so that people can get a better idea with a quick glance. Otherwise some people might be turned away, as half way through I was kind of winded already from reading all that info . It looks tasty though...

actually this is what I call the "change log in brief"

the full doc has all the civilopedia info included.

so you think get rid of all the what it does, etc and just put the basic info?

and should that be in a new thread or what do you suggest?

here is a taste of some of the images for the mod:

Social Democracy

Republic

fascism

These changes will make an incredible, indepth mod.

Just a few minor suggestions:

Have you though about changing the name of fundamentalism and fascism, to theocracy and nationalism. These names are a bit less coloured by recent history, and possibly have a wider application.

Also I have been experimenting with a few different improvements/wonders over the last few weeks...

Wonders:
Suez Canel wonder (increased trade effect)

The Mausaleum (one of the seven ancient wonders of the world, and where the name Mausaleum came from - with a religious, happiness effect).

New Improvements:
Holy Office of the Inquestion (Built only by Theocracy, lowers corruption, but makes one citizen unhappy)

State Media (Built only by Communists, lowers corruption, but has a negative effect on culture)

While I understand the flaws involved with specific government improvements, I believe if you add a negative aspect to the building which is acceptable under that particular government, but could prove a problem under 'better' governments, this could help solve the current limitations. For example the Inquestion will lower corruption, an important effect, but makes some citizens unhappy. Under a theocracy with no war warinesss this will not be such a problem, but if you were a democracy at war, it would be another story.

And of course you could always add my favourite Bonus resource... the mountain goat (food in the mountains, you got to love it )

Well just thought I would tell you a few of my ideas, take what you want and leave the rest...

Good idea's! Keep up modding.

Hey bud,

Been working on a mod myself. I found a nice way to draw the lines for those techs. It is pretty simple. First you have to erase the previous lines. Copy and paste can do it simple enough. Then go into your game, take a snap shot of your tech tree, paste it into your background picture. Then draw the lines from there. Don't worry about the background images as they will be covered by the overlay that Civ 3 throws on there. That is the way I did it anyway.

beautiful! very good thinking. I was debating with myself over this very thing just the other night. I hadn't come to any clear decsion on it but now, with your outside opinion, I will do as you suggest.

Kal-El, remember to do those lines after you have linked all the buildings to techs that you want to. After you add buildings they will make the boxes bigger, probably making it so you need to reorganize your techs again.

I have a question, how do you make a tech use a smaller box instead of a bigger one? Damn its annoying that some techs are using the biggest possible box when they have no buildings attached to them (or just one building).

mizaq,

so far I have only noticed that big box phenomenon in the ancient age. I don't know if there is anything that can be done about it.

The ancient age doesn't have the smallest box available to use it has a size 3 and a size 4 (the biggest one). I tried adding smaller sizes and, ew, it went crazy. The best thing I can figure is that they wanted to take up space in the ancient age to make it look more full than it really is. There is no forseeable way to change it. As far as I can determine which techs in the ancient age get which blocks is hard coded. Iron working for example has one icon in it and it uses a size 4 block. Currency which also has one icon in it and it uses a size 3 block. Maybe if we delete and readd those techs it will do it right. We'll probably have to use a different name to get it to work right.

even new techs in the ancient age with nothing attached to them have the larger boxes. So I don't know if deleting and renaming will help. but you i didn't realize that you could even make the smaller box available. where did you find that and how did you try to change it?

don't you hate when you think you have this game figured out and then there is something hardcoded and the thing you have been working on for the past two hours crashes the game?
