You're right MM. I cannot yet edit the arrows in the civ advances because I'm still working on it. Only when I realize that all the advances (for all the civs!) are done competely I will make the arrows.

You have to manually edit the background files located in art\Advisers
Of course, you should copy the files over to your mod folder first
Yes Virote. I have made this work some month ago, but then I have changed all the graphics and the arrows are lost. So I have decided to add the arrows only when all the others things (Civ advances, graphics) are set up and I dont' work too many times for the same thing.

To manually modify the art means that you need to get a graphics program right? and is adding the arrows a lot of work?

Hi Bosh. I upload a new version of Mod today. If you can wait some hours you will have the updated version.

Yes. I have modified many graphics from the original game. Of course I have used a graphic program. There are many graphic programs, I have Photoshop and Paint Pro Shop, but I love use a free program: The Gimp. If you want and need more informations, there are some tutorials in the Tutorials, Reference, & Guides:
Cutting and Pasting with GIMP (Step by step Improvement creation)
Adding the arrows is not a difficult thing, but some time is needed. You can learn some here:

Thank you very much Imperator, but can I use Microsot Office Power Point 2007 to edit the graphics?
Thanx,

Nope. You definitely need something which is made to edit graphics. The three favorites around here are The Gimp, Photoshop and Paintshop Pro.
If you're strapped for cash, The Gimp is free.

Me thinks that would be an inefficient, it's pretty limited editing plus I don't remember if it can read .pcx For basic editing use Microsoft Photo Editor. For more advanced stuff do like he suggests and use the Gimp (just google it)
x-post gallore. I forgot I'd had this tab open a while...

You didn't install it over Civ3Complete, did you? (Since it is already patched up to 1.22, and requires a different disk, I guess it could pose problems...)

I DO have civ3 complete.
OK. Since CIV III Complete is patched to 1.22 version I think you need to reinstall the game. Not cancel the folders so you dont' dowload the Mods you have.
