Ares de Borg's Terrain Pack II: Open Beta! 2016-10-05

[Takhisis]

Thanks Blue Monkey,

but I had found out the hard way, that I have difficulties to change the sea to ocean borders ( I believe wCSO.pcx ), since I am unable to tell them apart.

Despite that, I am using Ares de Borg´s terrain (being very careful with early ship movements ).

Why don't you have the colours replaced by ones you can actually see and distinguish, and then change it back?

Thanks Takhisis,

I have darkened parts of the color palette with irfanview.

It may look somewhat crude, but the change is enought, that I can now differ between sea and ocean.

 

[Ares de Borg]

Good for you. Glad you can use it now.

Nice work! I may have to install Civ3 yet again.

 

[Takhisis]

You don't have it installed?

 

[ronning]

The artistic respect is mutual. It's obvious that you take allot of pride in your work. I'm a fan.

 

[Ares de Borg]

Thank you ronning, your compliment is much appreciated. Thank you for sharing your work with us.

Is the feb 2011 version still available for download somewhere?

 

[Ares de Borg]

Some older mods might use it, but it's obsolete.

 

[Takhisis]

Not if you haven't researched the 2014 tech yet.

^They are still in the Civ III era

@Ares de Borg I love your terrain. It's beautiful and less "cartoony" than other terrains. However, I struggle a little bit seeing the "bonus" grassland. I have to really look for the little magenta dots. Is this something I could edit in GIMP? If so, what files? Thanks.

 

[CorvusFortis]

I think, tnt.pcx in terrain folder is responsible for bonus grassland depiction.

I love your terrain as well. I am using it with Theov's excellent mod Expanding Civ3, which can be found here.

Expanding Civ3: a Theov Mod

In my opinion Civ3 is one of the best games ever. But the developers left some options on the floor. The modding community picked these up and this is my expansion pack. I've added Elephant units, Pirate Ships, Techs, 2 governments, Great and Small Wonders, more bonus resources, Austrians as a...

I have figured out how to substitute Theov's barbarian camps for the one's you use.
