Hello everyone. I am an active Civilization 4 player since 2008. I came across the Caveman2Cosmos mod about a year ago and it is the best thing I ever played. I've finished the tech tree on the on the largest map on the longest time pace.
Besides from my intro, the reason I made this post is because when I played Caveman2Cosmos is that I noticed that there doesn't seem (to my knowledge) any maps that are built for all the eras for a single game play. I noticed that all of the maps are earth maps with no space.
The reason why I joined the Civ forum is to create a map that will allow the player to interact with world in a unique for every era. I plan to have:
> a large Earth (prehistoric era to the information era)
> a moon and cislunar space (information era to nanotech era)
> an inner and outer solar system with a sun (nanotech era)
> interstellar space with some planets (nanotech era to galactic era)
> some galaxies and the universe (galactic era to cosmic era)
> distant past, future tiles (Transcendent era)
I created some maps before in world builder, but never anything with any real thought put into them, let alone a map that would require an effort for a this mod pack. I'm wondering if there exists any tools to make maps for this mod besides in-game worldbuilder. Before I actually do design anything, I would like to hear some feedback. For instance, if maps like this already exist, tools to create maps, and any ideas I should also consider for my rough plan.
Thanks for reading to the end, and rule on my fellow Civ players.
