C2C : Empire Earth

Are these animated?

I don't believe they are animated. I am unsure of what to do with this..yet.

I am more concerned at the moment of filling out the empty techs of the Ancient Era, I have buildings designs and have the time and capacity to code them late this week, and then test them.

I am waiting for Alberts2 to create an XSD Building Shema so I can use XML software to analyze and understand the relationship between buildings. It will also help with certain automation tasks like macros.

I have 2 days left on break and I am excited to introduce new components to this modmod. After Ancient, I am moving to filling up Transhuman. A break has given me new insights and helped me recharge. I wish there wasn't a new building ban in C2C but that is reality.

Some of the top of my head.

I have to work on the schema a bit more to commit a first version. There are still tags i have to add to the schema:crazyeye: it's a big project e.g. for buildings we have more than 250 different tags.

There is no rush at all, take the time you need lol. Designing is like 80% of the effort and coding is like 20%. I'll just keep designing new stuff until you are ready.
 
I will be focusing on adding the following buildings this week,but there are some new buildings that I havent mentioned that will be dependacies to add :

I realised that instead of having to build many buildings I may be able to have them change stats similar to the way the Stone Workshop. There will be different Tales available at the start with more at the domestication techs with still more at Taxonomy as you learn the differences between a Red Fox and an Arctic Fox for example.

I a looking at using the Heritage tech as the place where you can build buildings that let you build the Alt-Timeline units in any of your cities if you have the wonder. Also it is the place where you can choose to have one of (Camel, Elephant or Horse) in all your cities, if you have the resource anywhere in your nation. I would also like to do the same for Felines or Canines but we don't have the cat units properly defined.

BTW Shouldn't "Jason's Voyages" be a wonder under Exploration?

Advanced Digital Warfare Biometric Warfare

Adaptive Firewalls( these programs will automatically patch themselves if they are bypassed in any way to that you can never get in through the same hole twice. The Security Team holds master keys to each firewall and can circumvent them in case of emergency.)

CodeBank (The Upgrade of Darknet. This is a repository of all known encryption schemes, firewalls, and protection algorithms and how to break them in the fastest possible time. it is also home to the most advanced decryption algorithims in the dominion. Security teams trains by hacking into this servers.)

Home Security System (Biometric) (A lock or seal which can be opened only by contact with the palm of the human hand to which it has been keyed.Fingerprints are held to be unique; A human palm offers more points for comparison,(especially hand veins) and is therefore more secure. )

Virtual Punishment (It seems like decades in prison, but only is used for a few months. The prisoner wears a Headspace Helmet (Virtual Reality), and programmed subliminal images are played over and over. Slowly the prisoner is removed from all traces of their personality, until this personality is reprogrammed. You can argue that this is a placebo effect or forced hypnosis.)

Genome Authenticators:(alphanumeric strings are obsolete, because computing power are making theme easily hackable. Iris Scanners can be fooled by pictures. Now an implanted chip in your wrist encrypted with your Genome is scanned to let you in high security area, open the door to your automated vehicle, etc.



Prototyped Pathogens
Prokaryotica 1st generation Research institute for the augmentation and design of pakaryotics for weaponized and industrial uses.


Intracellular Manipulator Lab 1st generation research institute for the augmentation and design of new biological components inside cells. New designs of nucleus, ribosomes, mitochondria etc that can be transgened into other cells.

Ubiquitous Computing
Synthespian Arcade (the Upgrade of Blogs)A center at a physical location with softwared programmed experts. The virtual expert is only an expert on a particular topic. )

Virtual Police Precinct (Police officers wear augmented reality equpment,specs, which are able to both capture visual information, and also present information to the officer wearing the specs. Rather than filing written reports on what happens when on patrol, your specs can record what happens and place it in your lifelog. Any of your interactions with superiors or other officers can also be logged. All of this information is placed in a Virtual Police Precinct.This is a virtual location for police lifelogs, official communications, paperwork, informational databases and evidence of all kinds. Extremely encrypted.).

Electronic Voting (Using computer terminals or augmented reality to register votes from citizens. Genome Autheticators and Adaptive Firewalls are required. )

Aroma Equipment Center (Devices capable of reproducing selected scents capable of fooling the human nervous system. The idea of being able to reproduce a wide variety of odors (or scents) with a machine and playing the scent back are here. )


Mass Surveillance

Automated SentryA biometric "watchtower" that scans facial features for identification. Biometric algorithms that make use of face recognition biometrics are used in place of human beings; the automated sentry is a biometric identification system. Ironically, face recognition is probably the oldest means that humans have of recognizing each other.)

Biometric Verificator (A device that measured physiologic responses (biometric data) and translated it to a set of colors that unerringly reported whether or not the measured person was telling the truth. Would you behave differently if you knew that, at need, you could be verificated? Would you live your entire life differently, if you knew that people could tell, without fail, whether or not you believed what you said?)

Vivisector Antivirus(An intutive algorithm that takes another computer program or algorithms apart, while it's running, to see what it does. If it is a rogue algorithm, it is destroyed. Can also be used to scan electronic devices in a wide area. This is a necessity to protect the cyber elements of our future, since there exists young hackers that disassemble other programs and algorithms, and put them back together again with malware without leaving a trace; even while those programs and algorithms were running. Can be used by totalitarianism goverments to have a true great firewall on its people. )

Websight Implants (Implants that let you visualize the Internet in your mind by closing your eyes and letting your augmened equipment present it to you. Although each part of the Web is unique, it all followed the same general pattern: colored lines representing links, glowing circles of various sizes and brightness indicating websites. Now, you can search the Internet by thinking about a phrase and your Augmented Reality Contact Lenses show it in front of your eyes. As you can imagine, this is a perfect way to show a censored Internet to you people. )

Emotion Transmitter (An implanted device that directs some sort of energy wave into a person's brain, allowing them to experience a chosen but temporary (dialed) mood. This makes for a new kind of non-lethal weapon, and is virtually controlled by Law Enforcement for crowd control and to stomp disobedience. The favorite emotion transmitters settings are Obedience to Lawful Authority, Sheeplike Subservience, and even Fawning Admiration of Government Functionaries. The Emotion Transmitter can probably be hacked and capable of generating very specific emotional responses. The controller has a 25 foot radius. One of the reasons mainstream cloning happened later, law enforcement was able to control clones).

Alibi Archive (A recording made of transmissions from a personal implant that perceived everything that happened to that individual.The images and other data flowing from an implant into the alibi-archive could also be "tapped" or viewed by someone else.)

Forensic Panopticon (An algorithm housed in a super computer that gathers information from many sources to effectively surveil any citizen as effectively as if he was in a glass cell. The Forensic Panopticon puts together all of the information available on a person, including all known real-time data on their location and activities. A prison without bars, it makes the work of a Virtual Police Precinct much easier, but is astronomically expensive to maintain.The computer from the movie Eagle Eye is a good description. The term "panopticon" was coined by Jeremy Bentham in the late 18th century. The basic concept was that a watching guard could see easily into every corner of every cell in a specially designed circular prison. A few of this and you can have your own police state.).

Nanogenerators

Tranceiver Implants (The upgrade of Cellphones. Implant enables two-way communication with needing to carry a device in your hands. )

Escapin Manufacturer ( Synthetic polymorphic proteins binded with nanogenerators that prevent the majority of room temperature stable liquids from leaking. Allows the manufacturing of naval ships that are more resistant to sinking if hull is broken.

Mesh Networks

Laser Optics Factory (The upgrade of Fiber Optic Cable Factory. Terabit networking. The hybrid silicon laser is a key enabler for silicon photonics, and will be integrated into silicon photonic chips that could enable the creation of optical “data pipes” carrying terabits of information. These terabit optical connections will be needed to meet the bandwidth and distance requirements of future servers and data centers powered by hundreds of processors.)
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/research/intel-labs-hybrid-silicon-laser.html

Mesh Networks (The upgrade of Wireless Networks. Wireless Networks rely on a small number of wired access points or wireless hotspots to connect users. In a Mesh network, the network connection is spread out among dozens or even hundreds of wireless mesh nodes that "talk" to each other to share the network connection across a large area. The biggest advantage of mesh networks, as opposed to wired or fixed wireless networks , is that they are truly wireless. In a mesh network, only one node needs to be physically wired to a network connection like a DSL Internet modem. That one wired node then shares its Internet connection wirelessly with all other nodes in its vicinity. Those nodes then share the connection wirelessly with the nodes closest to them. The more nodes, the further the connection spreads, creating a wireless "cloud of connectivity" that can serve a small office or a city of millions.)

Polymorphic Internet(The upgrade of ISP Offices. The concept of internet polymorphism can be explained as "one interface , multiple Internets". Polymorphic Internet is an amplified version of cloud computing that is tiered to specific categories; that are not websites or part of the traditional internet . The Internet is like a tree, (that because of Mesh Networks), has now grown branches that have blossomed new Internet "leaves". An Internet branch may have heavily encrypted "Genome Internet Leaf" that allows for biological downloading to implants, while another branch may be "Droid Internet leaf" that stores the cloud AI of Droids, and is only accessible by Droids. Many of the "leaves" of the Polymorphic Internet are not accessible by "wireless", some "leaves" require special equipment to send or receive genome, biological, algorithm, and bacterium messages.)

Gene Enhancement

Transgenetics Lab (The transferring of genes from one species to another. An example is goats that can grow spider silk in its udders).

Holographics

Holographic Advertisement Firm (upgrade of Augmented Reality Advertisement Firm. New holographic marketing and holographic subliminal ads.)

Augmented Consumables
will post at a later date.

Mainstream Cloning

Warrior Auragenex A facility that programs clones that are genetically modified to excel in militaristic duties. Their training is accelerated by a series of musical frequencies that have been programmed in the brain. A musical frequency (song) creates a specific neurological response that triggers a specific behavior on command.


Wizard Auragenex A facility that programs clones that are genetically modified to excel in scientific duties. Their training is accelerated by a series of musical frequencies that have been programmed in the brain. A musical frequency (song) creates a specific neurological response that triggers a specific behavior on command.

Rogue Auragenex A facility that programs clones that are genetically modified to excel in scientific duties. Their training is accelerated by a series of musical frequencies that have been programmed in the brain. A musical frequency (song) creates a specific neurological response that triggers a specific behavior on command.

Beauty Auragenex A facility that programs clones that are genetically modified to excel in entertainment duties. Their training is accelerated by a series of musical frequencies that have been programmed in the brain. A musical frequency (song) creates a specific neurological response that triggers a specific behavior on command.

Labor Auragenex A facility that programs clones that are genetically modified to excel in hard manual labor that is to costly for droids. Their training is accelerated by a series of musical frequencies that have been programmed in the brain. A musical frequency (song) creates a specific neurological response that triggers a specific behavior on command.

Droids

Mining Ant 12 foot mechanical ant designed for core mining at the depths of the earth and withstand environmental temperatures of up to 174 degrees Celsius / 345 degrees Fahrenheit .

Recharger Butterfly 11 inch butterfly droid that can quickly recharge electrical devices with its proboscis and collect energy with its solar powered wings. Usually found in Malls and locations with high population.


more Droids to come.

Gene Jurisprudence

Mutant Asylum (A facility that segregates and quarantines people that have suffered undesirable genetic enhancement accidents for the "protection of the greater good", and used for the study of how pathogens affect their genomes.)

Xenogenetic Fertility Clinic (The upgrade of Fertility Clinic. Xenogenetic means being of foreign origin; having originated elsewhere. Choose the phenotype of your baby like color of eyes, hair color, height, metabolism and other features. With embryonic accelerator techniques your new baby will be delivered by a maternity clone in approximately 5-6 months. You can even shop for designer babies composed of the genes of your favorite movie stars. All guaranteed to be 99.9% genetic defect free. )

Genetica Pet Shop (Pet shop that offers pets with specially designed phenotype, like dogs with blue fur, miniature 2 foot permanently tamed black bears, birds with printed designs on their feathers, among other offerings.)

Cell Visualization Hologram(Upgrade of 3D Human Atlas. Standard optical microscopy has severe limits in studying the growth of living organisms. Live cells don't have enough contrast for easy study and their internal structures are indistinct. The use of dyes can bring these structures out, but typically kill the subject cell. Special holographic technique lets researchers see living cell development in three dimensions.)

Microbe Hydromining (Gene-tailored microbes refine gold and other vital elements directly from sea water. )

DNA Publishing(Encode a book, poem, story, academic journals, social blogs in DNA, then multiply it on the Polymorphic Internet. Unlike digital goods, each DNA encoded object is physically used when bio-downloaded to an implant. According to Thymine Publishing; "this is your chance to expand your print run to astronomical scales. Any message you want, I'll encode it in DNA, run PCR on it, and send you a billion copies.")

Fabricow Farm (Cattle and other creatures that create gene-designed biomachinery in their wombs. According to Foster & Sons Fabricows "Organic solvents, once unbelievably dumped into sensitive watersheds by shortsighted businessmen, are now recycled through filters grown specially for the purpose by pampered, well-fed fabricows. And these same animals' modified milk glands produce lubricants to replace long-vanished petroleum oil in our vehicles. In this way we make use of efficient fabrication methods evolved over billions of years by Nature herself.")


Novus Chemistry

Eukaryotica 3rd generation Research institute for the augmentation and design of Eukaryotics for weaponized and industrial uses.


Rapid Recuperation

Cryptogenomes (With DNA piracy on the rise, biometrics and DNA authentication is no longer secure. A new encryption standard of cyptogenomes, where multiple sequences of genomes from several species are combined to create a new genome sequence.


Bacillus Computer A team of scientists have engineered bacteria that could solve complex mathematical problems faster than anything made from silicon or graphene. Just as electronic circuits are made from transistors, diodes and other devices, the Bacillus Computer is made from genetically engineered bacteria. A primitive form of organic computing.

Endocrine Manipulation Lab The endocrine system is referring to the collection of cells, glands, and tissues of an organism that secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream. Many other organs that are part of other body systems, such as the kidney, liver, heart and gonads, have secondary endocrine functions. For example the kidney secretes endocrine hormones such as erythropoietin and renin. The design and augmentation of hormones unlocks part of the biological source code.


Warrior Endogenex A facility that programs clones that are genetically modified to excel in militaristic duties. While the Auragenex uses musical frequencies, the Endogenex uses hormones to trigger a specific behavior on command.


Wizard Endogenex A facility that programs clones that are genetically modified to excel in scientific duties.While the Auragenex uses musical frequencies, the Endogenex uses hormones to trigger a specific behavior on command.

Rogue Endogenex A facility that programs clones that are genetically modified to excel in scientific duties. While the Auragenex uses musical frequencies, the Endogenex uses hormones to trigger a specific behavior on command.

Beauty Endogenex A facility that programs clones that are genetically modified to excel in entertainment duties. While the Auragenex uses musical frequencies, the Endogenex uses hormones to trigger a specific behavior on command.

Labor Endogenex A facility that programs clones that are genetically modified to excel in hard manual labor that is to costly for droids. While the Auragenex uses musical frequencies, the Endogenex uses hormones to trigger a specific behavior on command.

Mass Driver

Hive Shipping Center Mechanical bumble bees carrying a capsule of mail or shipping packaging are enclosed in an electrolux sphere. Using a mass driver cannon they are shot to the high atmosphere, break the sphere, and descend to the location of its sibling shipping center. They have an operation range of 155 to 510 miles (249 km to 820 km).


Media Hivemind

Transcendence Broadcaster First generation nueroelectrical tower that deliver your favorite shows and movies to your head (via your Transceiver Implants or Angel Media), with digital smell and touch. In the future the other senses like chronoperception (aware of time) will be unlocked with Neuron Engineering.


Angel Media Device can be used to provide your media directly to your mind, or to the mind of a nearby person.Upgrade Transceiver Implants and Emotion Transmitter. These devices also come in milspec versions for use by the military.

Basic Menslator
First generation memory translator that works by examining the mental image of what you are trying to say. Future technology will unlock models that can translate more senses in video instead of images.

Aphrodite System
Finding the right mating partner is a thing of the past. Let Hermes match you with you perfect mating partner on Earth by using your genome and a series of intuitive algorithms.

Coma Moratorium
A medical center where people can communicate with those in a coma or severe brain injuries via neuro-endocrine electrical signals. Still in its infancy, future plans include communication with people who have died in the past several hours or days for forensic purposes.

Biotrail Scanner
A kind of energy receiver that could retrieve the biological trail of a nearby specific individual similar to a bloodhound scent used by detectives.

Voxcoder
Transplant that improves language learning and communication by mapping the waveform of a spoken word or phrase to the brain but can only decode human speech. Primitive compared to an Universal Translator that can decode multiple species.
 
@MrAzure

Does your mod have any new Crimes or Diseases? If so what are they? I just wondered since you might have some done that I wanted to have anyways.

I haven't added new Crimes or Diseases yet. I am waiting for Alberts2 new Schemas (no rush buddy) before I continue.


Playing Galactic Civilizations 2 Ultimate and Distant Worlds Shadows while I wait. I'll check back in a few days/1 week.
 
@MrAzure

What do you think about setting fleatcher hut required to build archery units (excluding atl-atlist).
Forge required to build bronze/iron based units
War factory (not in game jet) to build tanks and heavy equippment

In every RTS game (like Empire Earth) first you must have good apriopirate infrastructure to build units.

In C2C we have it partially implemented like ships requires shipwright chariots ...

Dont you think that we should go this way deeper ??
 
I HAVE really been enjoying his new buildings in the prehistoric though... some really good work there. There's neat hidden gems behind buildings that aren't so great. Really like that.
 
I did enjoy using xEmpirEarth until recently the game stalls while i try to enter the civivcs screen.
The reason for this is a missing "ART_DEF_BACKGROUND_Civilization".
May i get a guide how to set up an appropriate background or whether how to remove this "feature"?
 
God knows what he amended :D
Show me the codes and I tell you what to do with it
 
This is the portion i suspect for the aforementioned behavior:
Code:
## Unique Background ##
		sBackGround = CyArtFileMgr().getInterfaceArtInfo("MAINMENU_SLIDESHOW_LOAD").getPath()
		if CyUserProfile().getGraphicOption(gc.getInfoTypeForString("GRAPHICOPTION_CIV_BACKGROUND")):
			sCivilization = gc.getCivilizationInfo(gc.getPlayer(CyGame().getActivePlayer()).getCivilizationType()).getType()[13:]
			sNewArt = CyArtFileMgr().getInterfaceArtInfo("ART_DEF_BACKGROUND_" + sCivilization)
			if sNewArt:
				sBackGround = sNewArt.getPath()
		screen.addDDSGFC("CivicsBackground", sBackGround, 0, 0, screen.getXResolution(), screen.getYResolution(), WidgetTypes.WIDGET_GENERAL, -1, -1 )
This piece of code resides in EmpireEarths CvCivicsScreen.py.
 
Probably just missing some art reference file sets that were expected for this to work properly, interestingly enough it looks like it wants one for all civilization definitions... wowch!
 
By right, if there isn't a corresponding art define entry for the particular civilization, the default background will be used, rather than a civ specific background. There will be a problem if there is an art define entry, but it points to garbage.

Thus, unable to tell the problem without seeing the exact python exception screenshot.
Anyway, I doubt the graphic option exists in C2C...

Simplest solution is remove everything within the if statement, leaving just the first and last line.
