CFC Graphics Modpack Library
Section II: Terrain and Resources


Note: This thread is intended only for the library itself. Please do not post comments or other replies here. Instead, you should send such things to the original C&C thread. By restricting the posting to this thread it will hopefully make browsing the library and finding what you need much easier. Thank you.

Preface: Given the positive feedback on section 3 and its resultant stickiness, I suppose it's time I started the next section of the library. Please post any comments, suggestions, etc in the original C&C thread. Particularly of interest is any advice on how to organize the resource packs since there is so much overlap in what is included

As with the last time, initially the layout will be in major disarray while I fill in the details and find/create suitable preview shots -- the index will be incomplete, links will probably point to the wrong places and screenshots will be placeholders which have nothing to do with the mod they're near. Your patience in ignoring such things is appreciated :)

Ares de Borg's Terrain (a community compilation)

After some time playing with this terrain, I'd like to release it to the public.

This is mostly a graphics compilation.
Over the years, many wonderful terrain packs have been released by creative minds, enhancing the look of Civilization by all means.

I took what I liked most, merged it together, tweaked it to fit my taste and got what you see here.

To all the original creators:
THANK YOU! Without you, this pack wouldn't exist.

I'd like to thank:
Aaglo, Arne, Hikaro Takayama, Joker, Pounder, the RFRE Mod, Rhye, Snoopy, Taé Shala, Varlin Saliptor, Winter, Womoks, and whoever I have forgotten and whose work helped creating this pack.
R8XFT and Stormrage for their support.
The whole community for keeping CIV alive.

I am honored to say that the mods "Anno Imperii" and "The Elder Scrolls" will use this terrain.

Somebody should update this library or just delete it. Being 16 months since the last update it is bordering useless. :sad:
 
My point was there is A LOT missing from it. You can get a MUCH better selection using the search feature - like over 10 times what is listed. I would rather see it updated.

No need to get upset...
 
I feel I must somewhat agree with Amesjustin...there have been a lot of great additions since this was last updated. But I don't believe that it should be deleted...
I know it would take a while but is there anyway that someone could add the new graphics into the library? Or would it be easier for everyone to just post their favorites?
 
I am trying to keep my site updated (link in sig), but people are making things too fast. I could write a script so that whenever I add a graphic mod to my site, it posts it here too... :shrug:

- GIDustin

Edit: Where did the shrug emoticon go? Or am i going crazy?
