There's definitely a special ArtDefines for them inside the scenario, but I can't confirm whether it's just a fort or not

EDIT: Yeah, I think it's actually just the fort dammit game show some consistency

I bet the bastards even actually had a model for it since they made the icon

Exactly! What, they just didn't want to texture it? Lazy bastards.

It's not wrong, it's just like saying that a dog raised with cats is now a cat. Also, Svartalfheimr is Nidavellir. It's just the maggot holes in the body of Ymir, which is earth. It's trippy as hell how the dwarves happened.


I like it, but I still think Valahalla should be a thing for them. Also, anyone thinking if this happens we should also make:

The Vanir: Njord

UA: Alfseidr: Produces food and happiness when a war is stopped.
UU: Sessrumnir? : Replaces battleship?
UB: Sessrumnir? : Replaces Palace?

EDIT: Dammit, just realised my pedantry won't allow this. The singular of Einherjar is Einherji. Sorry.

Now I'm being racist. We need to include the Jotnar:

Utgard-Loki: UA: Giants (definitely needs to be changed): All units gain sight and movement.
UU: Shapeshifter: Unlike the spearman(?) it replaces, the Shapeshifter is not affected by terrain (as in it treats all terrain as grassland).
UB: I got nothin'

Alright - for some reason I've finished three Civs in the last three months, figured out how to actually make Events and Decisions, probably will update Julius Caesar shortly due to free time, and am right now waiting for art so I started to try out how to make art other than maybe building/leader/unit icons, which led to my most impressive attempt of... this leader screen of Ioannis Kapodistrias.

I mean, it's not even remotely close to the level of people like Tarcisio or Jan or Leugi or any great artists, really, but it's... a start.

Unfortunately, I've run into a massive, Great Wall of Trump-sized modder's block, so I've even lacked examples on which to practice my art and, who knows, maybe actually get something going.

Nevertheless, here I am to see if there are any designs that would be interesting - no UIs, though, those are... not exactly useful. As for unit models, don't go absolutely overboard - my resource is at best limited to poaching UUs from the 3UC/4UC mod or anything from the Unit Model sub board.

I have that design from some challenge, I think? Anyway, Klepth and Fireships work for a Greek-independence civ. I can hand over my civ icon for it too if you want.

Oh, and UA should be based around Philhellenism.

 

[Urdnot_Scott]

Wait did you want a Greek independence civ design or what?

 

[GPuzzle]

Any Civ, the leaderscreen was just the best art I made so far, which is to say it's not excellent but it's better than what I've ever done, to show my art so far.

just dump some civs on me, I need ideas

 

[Tarmont]

ayy search for my design of greece on one of the old challenge thread I'm too lazy to upload it again

 

[Hoop Thrower]

My main question here is... shouldn't Venizelos be a better leader for a Modern Greece civilization?

I know he didn't participate in the greek independence war, but he's far more iconic, just picture a modern greek guy and he'll probably be the first to come to mind.

There are already two Venizelos being made. Both with the same design.

 

[GPuzzle]

I'm likely not going for a modern Greece, thank you.

 

[Uighur_Caesar]

Here's my Greek independence war design: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showpost.php?p=14143590&postcount=1965. Superwaffles said he was planning on using Scott's Greece for modern Greece so there wouldn't be any conflict.

Did you guys literally not read my post?

Oh but do they all replace a city state with Montevideo?

Did you guys literally not read my post?

Why not finishing the Riograndense Republic mod?

 

[GPuzzle]

Could never get a design which satisfied me. Ultimately I'd love to finish it, but again, modder's block.

 

[Uighur_Caesar]

Oh wow lol. I didn't see the last one.

 

[Hoop Thrower]

Oh! I may get back to you about that in a bit!

What about the Yaghan civilization we discussed about some time ago?

Or Solano Lopez's Paraguay, I'm itching to see that being done too.

 

[GPuzzle]

That's the problem: I'm not satisfied with any designs I make, save for Hammurabi who is a slightly modified version of Zantonius Hamm's or George III which is somehow great.

I need designs in the first place! I never was good at designing, but now I turn them into a full-fledged reality! Problem: I lack the designs themselves!

 

[Uighur_Caesar]

Any country or time period of particular interest? Or some kind of mechanic you've thought of but haven't figured out who to give it to?

 

[GPuzzle]

Nope, head is empty in that regard. Can't find mechanics interesting enough.

That said, Enlightenment/Industrial is a favorite of mine. I considered doing Solano Lopez but I'm unsure.
