*NEW*GRAPHIC: Population with larger (15x15) Smiley Mood Badges

Similiar to the previous Mood Badges but larger (15x15 vs. 8x8)

Screen shot in the post that immediately follows this one.

If you would prefer the previously released tiny, less obtrusive badges, they can be found (along with a screenshot) here:

Zip file = 221k

Installation instructions are in the ReadMe.txt included in the zip file.

Here's what they look like in the game:

That's awesome! Thanks.

I can never tell the difference between a mad Persian and a content one.

How do you change .bmp or .tif files into .pcx format?

I use Paintshop Pro and do a Save As.

Just a suggestion : wouldn't it be more visible if the happy face had a green which was a little deeper and the sad face was bright red ?

Yes, I think Happy Faces should be DARK GREEN and sad should be BRIGHT RED!

RoY

what? Rioting is Bright red... it's correct Blue is for depression and Red is for anger...

How about hot pink and lime green?

I know one thing - Silver is a nice colour and happy should have the colour silver

EDIT July 5, 2005: I made my own smiley set including for all the Conquests at http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=122958.

Now updated for Conquests!

I am spoiled to having these little mood badge smileys. Civ3 Conquests adds specialists, so the original smiley PopHeads won't work with Conquests. I decided to make the mod myself since no one else has yet. I found it surprisingly easy. The Conquests PopHeads.pcx is only taller by 50 pixels, all the original heads are the same and in the same positions, so all I had to do was carefully paste EvanCiv's PopHeads into the new Conquests PopHeads.

I even blantantly modified his ReadMe.txt with the new folder info and kept the old screenshot in the zip. But I acknowledge that this is other people's work that I've cut and pasted.

Here ya go: C3Cmoodbadge15x15simplesmiley.zip (221K zip)

(The file was too big to attach, so there's no download counter. Sorry.)

See above for screenshot. Use the version in EvanCiv's post above for vanilla Civ3 or PTW.

EDIT March 3 2005: This works for the "epic" game, but it appears the "Conquests" scenarios have their own popheads.pcx files. You *could* copy this c3c popheads file into the individual conquests folders and have it work, *but* it might mess up the ethnic or era feel of the scenario. The conquests popheads appear to be the same people, but for example in Mesoamerica everyone is native american, and in other conquests the people never look industrial or modern. So if you copied the smiley popheads into the conquests folder you'll get europeans and asians in Mesoamerica and modern citizens where they should be middle ages. Several of the conquests share popheads files, but none use the stock C3C epic pophead file (as compared by md5 signature): Sengoku has unique popheads; Mesoamerica has unique popheads; Napoleonic Europe and WWII in Pacific have identical popheads; 7 conquests have identical popheads: Age of Discovery, Ancient Treasures, Fall of Rome, Mesopotamia, Middle Ages, Rise of Rome and The Three Sisters.

Thanks very much Puppeteer, I can't live without these things now.

Does this work with PTW? I don't have a directory to install these icons into in PTW.

Yes, the original one should work with PTW.

Anyone gonna make Conquests versions of these?

I mean for Fall of Rome etc. They seem to use a different pic, so could someone put smilies there too?

Thanks Puppeteer! I'm sure EvanCiv would be please to know that you are keepping his legacy (15x15 smiley mooo) alive. Btw, I really really really love these smiley mood badges and I wouldn't want to play Civ without them.

But if you use them, they still won't affect the conquests.

I've also made my own popheads during the beta, and added "nationality flags" (well, they're supposed to be flags) -- even for the specialists.

So, in continuation of the popheads trend, here's: popHeads with Nationality Flags for C3C.

EDIT: Here's a preview screenshot.

Screenies? What do they look like?
