CiV.1.DOS.SCENARiO/MAP: HUGE LANDMASS/DESERT WORLD

here it is:
my first self-created CiV.1.DOS MAP ...

the
DESERT(ed) WORLD - CHiEFTAiN LEVEL
1 huge landmass continent
(85% land, 15% ocean at map)

i hope
you will like this map -
have a good time playing it.
i did need ~ 6 hours
of work to make it look best.

i don't want to tell you too much about it
maybe this: no ships in need -
every hint else would maybe spoil your fun.
...
simply imagine a situation after a catastrophe
where the tribes start again;
don't worry -
you will always find good spots for cities...

the first attached SAVEs
down below
are
CHiEFTAiN LEVEL

that means:
it's enough space to explore,
you have time to build some big cities before your enemy is pressing -
you can explore that continent without haste.

attention:
i have to rename CiV.DOS files here at forum
because i can't attach Civ.DOS MAP or SVE file extensions directly
in a "civfanatics forum" (very strange, but sadly true).

so the attached
Civil0.txt is NO TEXT file - it's the Civil0.MAP file
Civil0.sav is NO CivNet file (or else) - it's the Civil0.SVE file
BOTH files are in need to load a map / scenario into CiV.DOS:
Civ.DOS needs 2 savegame files -
you start as
Caesar of the ROMANS in CHiEFTAiN LEVEL

RENAME
Civil0.sav into Civil0.sve
Civil0.txt into Civil0.map

and copy it to your CiV.1.DOS folder to play...

HOW TO RENAME FiLE TYPES / EXTENSiONS / SUFFiXES
with winXP / win2000

i am on win98se
and dunno much about winXP / win2000 administrative/security settings
but i try to help those members on winXP / win2000 who have no idea what to do.

at -for example- windows 98 second edition
you are just able to change file suffix like *.txt and so on
if you can SEE for example
Civil0.sve
written this (DOS) way (= Civil0.sve )
(not just "Civil0" and something like "SVE file" 'down under' )
in your (CiV) directories window ( "win'95 style" ).

in win98se you just have to go
to ViEW
(at directory window)
and from there to something like " Directory Options / Preferences "
there maybe again into something like " ViEW " (or "settings") (above)
there maybe into something like " Advanced Settings "

anyway

you may find
after all anywhere
a field

where you can
"check" (X)
or
"uncheck" ( )

a lot of options.

the most important in 'our' case here
is something like

" show all files "
- check this

and something like
" (don't) show (known) ... suffix / data / filetype "
- uncheck or check this to 'make ALL FiLETYPES/SUFFIXES' visible...!

...maybe you will be able to rename suffix/filetype after this procedure...

DESERT(ed) WORLD - EMPEREOR LEVEL
1 huge landmass continent
(85% land, 15% ocean at map)
.
.
.
the attached SAVEs down below are
EMPEREOR LEVEL
that means:
AWFUL HARD:
1. BARBARiANS SMASHiNG (even) YOUR Ai OPPONENTS
2. YOUR Ai OPPONENTS ARE PRESSiNG
3. NEARLY NO TiME TO EXPLORE
4. FEW TiME TO DEVELOPE / iNVENT
- just fighting for your existence...

The same 'planet'/MAP -
another tribe & start location:
The City of Washington is already founded (o.k. location) -
1 Militia already produced.

...any comments, wishes, ideas?

I'll play it later. It sounds interesting! But right now I'm rather busy.

Nice scenario. I've just conquered the world (Emperor level) at 580 AD and got my highest score in Civ - 164%. The game is too easy, however. I think you may somehow isolate some of AI civs. For instance, you can place a lot of mountains in the centre to divide the continent into two parts.
