G'day everyone, first post. I think I've just about got it right - I've added an AT-AT walker to Civ3 Gold (the version I have) using the Civ3Edit application that came with Civ3 Gold and managed to get it working fine in a scenario, my problem is that I can't see the text entries in Civilopedia. I've done the following:
1. Created a folder in the art/units folder called AT-AT, which is the same name as the .ini file
2. Unzipped all the files (flc, etc) into this folder as per the instructions on this thread
3. Updated my units_32.pcx file with the icon
4. Copied the PRTO_AT-AT file from the text file in the zip file into the Civilopedia.txt file (I put it in between Panzer and Artillery)
5. Copied the following into the PediaIcons.txt file:
art\civilopedia\icons\units\atat_large.pcx
art\civilopedia\icons\units\atat_small.pcx
The unit works fine in the game, but the description comes up blank when checking the Civilopedia entry - only the attack/defence/movement stats are there, as well as a huge pic of the unit itself. From what I've learned on this thread, I'm guessing that in steps 3 or 4 I've stuffed something up.
Is the sequencing of where you put the Civilopedia and PediaIcons entries important (eg do they have to follow the sequence of the units_32.pcx file?).
Another thing I noticed is that the atat_large.pcx and atat_small.pcx files are not named AT-AT, which is what my folder in the art/units folder is, and not what the Civilopedia name is (PRTO_AT-AT). The pcx files came already named that way, so I didn't want to change them. Is this important?
Also, I read something about an animname reference, where is this located?
I didn't fill in anything of that nature...
Appreciate any help.
