CivArmy's Mod: 31 new civis + much more

[CivArmy s. 1994]

thanks for enjoying fellows! But I didn't receive the FTP stuff yet, so, I didn't upload the files 01 and 02 and reduce the file list to 31 I continue waiting

 

[thapagan]

I like the look of the starting locations. You have cleaned up europe, but I feel the america look a tad over filled. maybe if this turns out to be a long term project
some of thos starting locatons can be moved, play testing will show.

My vote is for a north africa, west africa and austria stating locations,
But does my vote count???

will try it out next week depending on work.

Looks nice, god job

thanks for enjoying! But the world map doesn't show the starting locations cos I didn't added my world map yet. when I do one I can add the real starting location and other world map with fake starting location, using the tips that u posted BTW, the present maps in this first version are: Americas (Meso, South and Norht toghter), Africa, Oceania, Ancient World (almost all Europe + north of Africa + Mid East), Brazil, Latin America and São Paulo state.

EDITED: it is easy add these civis in other world map already done, it can be done in the Editor and I can teach people to do that (it is really easy). The process is:
- Open in the Editor the World Map that u want add these civis (or other map).
- Click "file", "import", "yes", select "rules" and press okay.
- Save and load the World Map in your Civ3 Conquests.
- If u want, u can edit the starting locations and other stuffs in the editor.

C'mon, dude, upload those damn files, don't make us wait so long

thanks for enjoying friend! But I have to wait to receive the FTP stuff, who sent it to me is Thunderfall of CFC and he didn't send me yet. I think other people are using the FTP system before me, I just can wait. But people can already download the LH

 

[CivArmy s. 1994]

the links of files 01 and 02 r working and I have started the process to reduce the number of other files

At last !

P.S. Don't listen to those who don't like starting locs, they're nice, now the bloodbath will go on in Latin America not in Europe(like in most mods)

@CivArmy

The way I made static leaderheads is a flc containing 12 identical frames. I guess you've tried to use pcx files.

I'll try do that,thanks man , so, people can play with the statics LHs when they r downloading the animated ones

At last !

I think Thapagan is just suggesting a new format to starting locations, not doing a complain We can use my starting location or change their in Editor if necessary
Good game friend!

Ok. I can only take being disparaged only so much.

What I didn't express succintly enough, or maybe I went about the right way. But the choice of Civs show no clear logic pattern. You have Cormanthor (I Looked that up, but that is just nit picking... Just a simple typo..) which is a fantasy, so maybe its for whimsy. The rest is just hodge of second tier modern nations, which is not belittle anyone, but there are superpowers (US, Germany, GB, France, Russia, Japan, China, ect) then there is Argentina. Which is not bemean there world achievements ( Like harboring Nazi's, never declaring war against Germany in War World II.. But I won't nit pick). Neanderthals I won't go there.. A mod I though was to have a theme of some sort. Like RAR which was to make a more complete CIV experience. Or historical Mods like War War II or the Conquests series. The ones that were picked just run the whole time period. The Picts were displaced by the Irish ( Who were Celtsic people) these Irish become the Scots. Which would be an interesting Mod. The Irish settling and pushing the Picts and the Various Angle, Saxon People pushing fromt the south. The Venerabe Bede would a good source. Yes the Cherokee would be a good substitute for the Iroquois they had there own alphabet and government. The Supreme Court ruled that the US could remove them from North Carolina, but President Jackson ignored and removed them, hence the Trail of Tears. Which ranks Jackson on par with Hitler, Hirohito, and Peron in my Book. Yes I am a history major. Every culture has value. We have had our bad moments (the US our treatment of native people, Australia the treatment of the aborignals (sp), Brazil the treatment of the native tribes... hmmm do we see a trend. Heck the Sudan is allowing Muslims to rape and multilate non muslim people. They still practice slavery. And don't get me started on Japan's conduct during World War II and refusal to accept responsbility for the actions of their leaders and their military.



So I will let this drop after this unless more mud is slung, but I have soap and water. To sum it up Civ Army I just think the mod lacked focus. Its just all over the map. I mean the Forgotten Realms would make a great mod, if some take the time, which is not me. I work 60 hours a week, and have no time. The Albiginsian Crusade or the Northern Crusade would also make good mods. Or the War Between I think it was Sweden and Russia (Peter the Great I think) would be a good mod. You have Russia, Germany, Poland, Baltic Countries (Don't remember the exact map of the time ie if Norway was united with Denmark, whether Poland was independent, but I think they were.) For Asain Mods one could do the Mongol attempt at conquering Vietnam... Greek Persian Wars. Arabic Muslim conquest of the Middle East... But I think Firaxis has too much overlap with the Mideast civs anyway, and they haven't include the Isreali. I am tired and rambling.. If think the mod is good then enjoy it. Too all a good night and peace be to all

Do I have to do a draw??? Again:
- the civis were choice cos they were my first 31, doesn't matter if they were small groups, fantasy groups, small present nations or other reason. Many of them were requests of people who cares with them and others were nations that I'd like to do.
- DON'T TURN THE THREAD POLITIC (which nation killed its own native tribe, which nation is superpower...). The moderator could close the thread (and with reason), cos the thread could lost its focus.

[BenWilbur] I hope that a history major like you doesn't think that the US declared war on the Third Reich any more than Argentina did! But Civ Army is right - this is not the place to start attacking particular countries - there's a very thriving Off Topic forum for precisely that purpose. If you wish to argue that point you must do it there.

I think what you're failing to appreciate is that this is meant to be a mod of civs that aren't in the main game, which Civ Army has done as additions. He's posted them all as single one-off civs that you can add to the main game if you want, but this is a collection of them all, I suppose as a sort of "what if the big boys hadn't existed?" mod. And what's wrong with that? There are other such mods out there as well, you know. There are also mods and scenarios that focus on some of the historical situations that you mention. But a mod or scenario can be anything the creator wants - as focused or as disparate as they like. Personally I quite like the idea of playing Europe without France or Germany, or Asia without China and Japan. It's alternate history, which is rather what Civ is all about, one way or another.

THE iRISH DID NOT DISPLACE THE PICTS AND THE CELTS WERE NOT SOLELY IRISH. THERE WERE SETTELERS IN SCOTLAND BEFORE IRISH SETTELERS CAME. A MIXTURE OF NATIVE SCOTS, IRISH CELTS, BRITTONS, ANGELS, AND THE PICTS COMBINED UNDER CHRISTIANITY TO FORM ALBA (THE SCOTS). I HATE IT WHEN THE IRISH TRY AND CLAIM THEY FORMED SCOTLAND. SORRY ABOUT THIS RANT BUT IT REALLY BUGS ME. GOOD MOD BY THE WAY.

Yes, I could, but it would take 400 mega more of CFC server , cos I'd post again the files that were here before the mod I wanna save space in CFC.

You know, CivArmy, I just noticed that the start location for the Elves is near mount Halti, which means "Elf" in Sámi. I spent a summer holiday thereabouts.
Either it's just an amazing coincidence or your knowledge of geography is fearsome indeed!

 

[tyguy quebecer]

Right!!!

 

[tyguy quebecer]

Civarmy, could you make a quebec civ?

good new to u, I'm working in this one these days, it is leaded by Governator Champlain and u can see his preview in http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=115339 . feel free to post your comments (city list, leader list, threads, UU...) in that thread

 

[CivArmy s. 1994]

Well, the new version of this Mod is available to download in page 1. Now, people must download just files 01 and 02 to play using static LHs (I fixed this system) and some LHs and units own a new and better version.
