Civ 1 mod

With all the cute little icons? sounds great!
:) I still play Civ 1 on my lap top, and get great amusement from it; exept from the combat engine (battle ship killed by phalanx etc. can get very anoying), you could recreate the civ 1 combat system by giving all the units 1 hp, so that they either win or lose on one combat, it would make wars super fast, you could have realy huge maps:) . Although it could be nice if the elite units had 2hps cos in civ 1 vetrans got an attack and defence bonus, also modern units such as the battle ship could have an extra hp bonus to protect them from primative attacks, a good unit to start this on would be the musketeer.
You may need to come up with a few new units, like a leader unit; although you could use the barbarian leader or player diplomat as these wouldn't be used.

I think all the civ 1 graphics are much lower res than civ III so you will have to be carfull when adapting them.
 
Well I think I won´t do units look like those in Civ 1 and I have just done the rules. I took the units from Civ3. That 1hp would be quite good idea although it IS quite funny that one Phalanx wins the Battleship. I´ll change that.:D
 
I think that this mod is very interesting and cool, its nice to have the good pictures of civ3 still though, i was worried that you might've put the civ1 graphic in

good work, and i noticed that all the units you made in the automate mode thing, which i never thought of before but it seems like a good idea just got to try it

good job,

hey what i meant was that

If Ville decided to all the graphics back to the civ1 i agree that would be "rad" but if it were the same terrian but different unit graphics that would look really *awkward*

In fact could someone try to do that? I know it would take a long time and i just don't have all the skills nesscary to do that
 
Has it crashed? :confused:
When I tried it on my computer it crashed when I built my first city.
Is it because of the mod or is it just in my computer:)
 
Does any one know how to extract the grapics from CIV 1, without having to screen capture them all that is. Once you had the graphics, putting them in the game wouldn't be all that difficult, just a case of cut and paste.
