Double Your Pleasure

I got the mod and most of the units. I am gonna check it out later. BTW I am 2/3 done with the elephant rider. Only the attack animations stand in my way and those look like they will be easier as the whole elephant is not moving (aligning the death animations was a pain. It always appeared as if the elephant was killed by a cannon at point blank)

I hope to have it all finished tonight

GIDustin

well that's good news for everybody!

Are shipyard and port supposed to be able to be built by a city in the middle of a mass of land? Or can they be built by any city on a river?

I have conquered the 680 AD crash. That was because not all of the .flc, .wav and .amb files are in the correct folders. They are now though.

Now, I have a city on a river in the middle of a continent that is building a port, and next in the queue is a shipyard. Ideas?

yeah, ran into that myself last night. I forgot to tag them as coastal facilities in the editor if you do that it will fix that problem.

ask and thou shallt receive!

edit: no longer necessary, just download the whole thing.

Man! So far so good! I like it.

My only issue so far, and it really is just a personal preference thing, but alot of your buildings in the build queue don't have graphics. Are you working on them or have you just not gotten around to updating the buildingslarge.pcx and buildingssmall.pcx files yet?

Also, I am pretty good at getting graphics from pretty much all over (web sites, games, books, etc.) and converting them into nice looking .pcx files for the civilopedia and also for the city aerial view. I particularly like see a city with all the stuff built in aerial view. If you have time, list what buildings you need and I can work on them for you. You like the amusement park graphic I posted in another thread, cause I see it in the civilopedia (only you mirrored the file ). Let me know what else you need.

Nightstorm,

Actually, I didn't see your post of the amusement park. lol, I had to find it on my own. I found a lot of images at the simcity3000 website.

I have pics for almost all of the buildings its just a matter of putting them together. I would be more than glad to send you what I have, if you wouldn’t mind doing that. I can compile that tonight and either send it to you or post it here.

The only ones I am missing images for are:
Labor Union
Civil Liberties
East India Company
Emancipation Proclamation
Edison’s Workshop
Civil Rights Movement
Genome Project
Central Bank
Cable Network
The Internet
Global E-Bank

I am not satisfied with the radio tower or the computer network, so if you could find alternate images for those. For the computer network I have the computer image from CTP ad that is a possibility.

Re: the overhead view, it really doesn’t work right now. You can only add in new buildings by replacing old ones. If you want to put the statue of liberty in you would have to remove the lighthouse or the colossus.

let me know how you would like to proceed.

thanks

nightstorm,

just saw the thread with the pics. Those look great. I especially like the SoL, the Sewage Treatment Plant and the Taj Mahal. Would love to use those intead ofthe oes I have now.

should have asked earlier. have you figured a way to get the aerial view to work? I thinkit would be very cool to have a city just crammed full of stuff. can you imagine what a city iwll all of these improvements would look like?

Beta Updates:

1) Industrial Ages Science Advisor: At the start of that age, if you click on guerilla warfar, it requires and makes you research industrialization but doesn't have an arrow going from industrialization to guerilla warfare.

2) Industrial Ages Science Advisor: Communism requires Marxism and has an arrow from one to the other. But, if you click on Communism, it does not force you to research Marxism first.

3) Industrial Ages Science Advisor (minor fix): Civil Liberties needs moved over about 10 or so pixels to the right, or the arrow from radio needs to come up and then point left instead of just pointing up (it is off-center).

That is what I have seen so far...will post if I come up with more

You can post here or email the stuff to me...don't worry about size of .zip file if you email, cause I have cable and it screams!!!


As for the aerial view, I tried adding a few of those earlier and thought they worked...will have to look again, maybe I changed something. I will still try to work on it though.

great, you will have it within 6 hours.

now I can focus on putting the civilopedia.txt together.

SIM CITY 3000 UNLIMITED!

Forgot I even had that game! Gonna go gleam some pics from there for ya...That will be quick yet nice!

can't wait to see what you come up with.

Here are the buildings I've come up with...so far...many more to come...

Still working on converting them and getting them onto the Civ3 invis background color.

So far we have...

Arc De Triomph
Shop
Bank
Capital Records Building
Casino

Hotel
Lincoln Memorial
Military Outpost
Musuem of National History

Some of these are already done...some of these can also be used as other buildings...will still try to find more while working on and convertin what I have...

I use all of these images for the aerial view...I can them resize them for use in the buildingslarge.pcx or buildingssmall.pcx files (for the build queues)...I can resize and put on a background for the Civilopedia...etc. etc. etc...

Here is an example of one of the Capital Records Building...

Wow, that looks amazing. It sure would be nice to see something like that in the aeriel city view.

Anyways, Kal, I'm downloading the units zip files, so I'll install those and hopefully everything will go well.

nightstorm,

so you got the aerial view to work?

can you create a composite of the images you have, similar to the one in your other thread?

I am at home now and will be putting together what I have.

I will see what I can do in the morning...the wife is limiting computer time for the rest of the evening

I may have to put together a few of them, but I will try what I can...I got several of the 51 I posted from Sim City 3000 Unlimited thanks to your idea Kal-el...some are from the internet and some are my own...I try different designs with the SC3000 building architect tool and then load them into SC3000 and get them from there...

I will post tomorrow only those that are finished...will post later those that I get done...

Another sample...how about this for your radio tower...(working on a combination of a smaller version of this tower with a small radio-station type building)

'Tis what the Great Lighthouse should truely look like...

nightstorm those look great with you help this wil be the most beautiful mod available.

Those images look really good. I am impressed!!
