[Religion and Revolution]: Further Native Nations

Folks, May I ask for a little petition?

If we change a leaderhead or another button which is already in the colonization atlas, please let us use the atlas as well for the changed button, or we will lose the overview...

I will amend the button for the changed leaderhead above...

If you don't want to work with the atlas, don't hesitate to ask me to change a button...

Ok. :)

Great. :thumbsup:
But simply leave the old button in there, too.

I have never been a big friend of the "atlas-concept", but it is no problem for me to work with them ...
 
Ah ok. I have also no problem working without the different types of atlas, but I thought we could reduce the necessary files (download content) by using this feature.
 
Hi Folks,

Here are the first 5 new graphics for the native nations.

Please note:

a) I mostly used graphics from the civfanatics/colonization community (free download section or other mods) or the standard game and improved or modified them. A special thanks already goes to bernie14 and Melcher for their fantastic units and/or graphics...
b) In the game they will be visable as usual (three warrior instead of one etc.)
c) I have tested them and they work well

I know, some of them look a little bit different (within one nation), but I think it doesn't matter... :)

And please...bee amicable, I worked 4 hard days and nights for this result ... :lol:

1. Caribs



2. Navajo



3. Hurons



4. Algonquians



and last but not least...new graphics for the Sioux:


Here are the Guarani (new tribe) and the Cherokee.

I made only a few changes (face, fringe, trousers).

Guarani:



Cherokee:

 
And here are the Zapotec...now only the Inuit are missing




Please note:

I made a huge update and have uploaded all new native graphics.

Feel free and test them! It was a huge update and maybe I reached not all files...
 
Sorry, maybe I took the wrong leaderhead graphics. :dunno:
(I have a lot of them lying around ...)

No problem Ray, I just wanted to clarify the leaderhead.

I will correct. :thumbsup:
(And use the one we originally wanted.))

Great. I would be a pity not to use such a fantastic looking leaderhead.:yeah:

Maybe we can use the one I accidently configured for one of the other 3 upcoming Native Nations ... :dunno:
(South American or Central American)

Perhaps. Although if we were going to use the leaderhead for one of the upcoming Native Civs, I would have to change at least one the civs to match the leaderhead. The leaderhead is good but I think it would need some tweaking to make it a better fit for a native civ?

What about using her for Queen Isabella of Spain - it would be good to have a female European monarch and Isabella certainly encouraged western exploration. The leaderhead as it is looks more European than NewWorld native.
 
I posted previously that the foreign advisor screen is looking too crowded and doesn't allow you to see all the information clearly - I can't seem to find that post now.

I used the custom game set up to add a few more AI's to try and get all the Europeans to appear at once, as well as most of the natives. It didn't really work because I got both french players etc.

However it was useful to see what is going to happen - the foreign advisor screen became so crowded that the tiles even overlapped.

As far as I can see we are going to have 27 tiles - i.e. 6 European Nations + 6 Monarchs + 15 Native leaders.

I have started to think about new formats for this screen. Is there anyway we can code a 27 x 27 grid table:
- with little symbols in each box, indicating the relationship between the person at the top of the column and the person end of the row.
- then when you rollover the box you get a popup telling you the detailed relationship between the pair,
- of course the table would have a blank diagonal line down the middle because each nation would not have a relationship with itself.
 
What about using her for Queen Isabella of Spain - it would be good to have a female European monarch and Isabella certainly encouraged western exploration. The leaderhead as it is looks more European than NewWorld native.

That might work. A crown or something might have to be added, but I think it would be less work making her look like a European monarch than a Native American. It's spmething to think about for a future release.

Ok, then let us forget that leaderhead for now. :thumbsup:

Queen Isabella of Spain already exists as completely working leadherhead to my knowledge.
Why should we take efforts to convert another leaderhead. :dunno:

We had thought of this. But all texts ingame are for male kings. We would have to change the whole texts + translations. Therefore we did not implement Isabella.
 
Here we are...the Inuit:

Warrior:



Armed Warrior:



I'm not totaly satisfied with the graphics, but I think it is a good compromise. I didn't find typical Inuit cloths, so I had to use this headpiece (wolf).
