HELPFUL BUILD LIST - GRAPHICS PACK
Revision: 2002-03-14
Version of Civ 3: 1.17f
WHAT THIS PACK DOES
The pack intends to change two graphics files used in the Build List as well as in the Built List of the City View. It is updated for version 1.17f.
The files that need to be replaced are the two:
1. <Civ3 Folder>\Art\City Screen\buildings-small.pcx (Buildings and Wonders)
2. <Civ3 Folder>\Art\Units\units_32.pcx (Units)
So these are the files you should backup. However, I also include the original files, just in case you need them or want to uninstall.
For Buildings I included the following info given by each Building or Wonder:
1. Culture Points generated (original ones, before the Millennium doubling)
Color used: Blue
2. Maintenance cost
Color used: Golden
3. Pollution Points generated
Color used: Red
4. Happy Faces generated (just for that city)
Color used: Green
For Units I included the following info:
1. Number of possible upgrades
Color used: Green
2. Number of "carryable" units
Color used: Blue
I used colors to distinguish between types of information given by the numbers.
I have attached three images so that you can see units, buildings and wonders.
I also included an Excel XP spreadsheet containing the most important information regarding buildings and Units, taken from the civ3mod.bic file, which I used in doing this. You can check or update the data (for newer versions) by yourself.
The Pollution Points affect how pollution appears in a *city*. The formula for that is this:
Percent chance of pollution per turn = Pollution Points + 1 per citizen above 12
I took this from the Civilization III Official Strategy Guide.
However, I suspect that this percentage chance is also affected by the global warming effect, but I havent had the chance to confirm that yet.
INSTRUCTIONS
You can find complete instruction on how to install in the readme file included on the pack.
CREDITS:
This Graphics Pack is heavily based on the works done by Il Mafioso with the "Civ 3 Usability Pack" and Nemo with "Nemo's Graphic Build Queue". I just tried to improve on their efforts and make things a bit tidier.
So, *most* of the credits should go to them, for having the splendid idea of doing these two original graphics packs and sharing their efforts with the world, which I've been using.
You can find their original work in these threads:
