Creatures in War [CIW] [Mod in the making] [Need some support and ideas]

Yeah the grey alien's model is small in nifskope and blender. But the model gets stretched out with the skeleton in game.

I am not sure if this is the right place to ask nor could I find any helping information yet, therefore I will ask here:

When I regularly load the mod into the game, it starts perfectly well, but all text fields are blank. It is hard to navigate under these circumstances, but I managed to start a regular game. In-game it is the same: No fonts or texts whatsoever, but the buttons are there (I can tell from seeing them lighting up when drawing the curser over them).
And yes: I have the v3.19 of BtS, the Hotfix is installed as well and I copied it in the right directory (other mods work out fine). The very same problem occurs with the mod "History in the making". Maybe the reason for the problem is the same so someone might be able to tell me how to fix this.

Thank you in advance. :)

Edit: Same problem now with the "History Rewritten" mod. :mad:
 
Sounds like a language issue. If you have the game set to something other than English, try English instead.

If there is a single entry in any of the files that specify text which is missing an entry for the language you are using it will not display the text at all. (As far as I know, the only mod which has fixed this is Caveman 2 Cosmos, which displays the English for anything that is missing in any other language. I don't think that even my Rocks 2 Rockets mod-mod of C2C does this yet - as I recall, the improved language text processing is several DLL updates ahead of where that is.)

The answer depends on the time period you are talking about. E.g. The Towers of the Teeth at the entrance to Mordor were originally built by Gondor in the Second Age, only to be abandoned and taken over by Sauron in the Third Age. I expect you are talking about the Third Age which is the time period during the Hobbit and LOTR books but there is no definitive answer to this question.

The following links are pretty good resources about Middle Earth, but a simple search on Google will provide the history for any location.

Rhun - Same as above, a land/nation, not a city. No cities known here. Neutral/Evil, Menl

If you need more city names, let me know, I'm working on a Middle-earth mod.
 
Thank you both !
topsecret i will use your Gondor Third Age Unit Pack for new civilization in this mod, but i don't know who will be leader, and which name they will have, maybe Gondor, because on the other sides are Morian Orcs, Leader is Sauron. This my mod is more like parallel universe and mixture of games, movies and etc.
 
I am current work on my All Civilization World mod which is renamed to "RECONSTRUCTION", after first release of Reconstruction i will release new version of CiW which will have most stuffs from Reconstruction.

I have one new idea. I think to put Steam fighters (or some Drake as fighter), Steam bombers (or some another Drake as bomber) and comets, meteors (act as the Nuclear bomb). I am put steam tanks in game i will not put steam ships.

What's others thinks?

Had a thought that you could have an improvement like cottages that require being worked to mature that then hatch drakes.
or like the percent chance of finding a new resource under a worked mine.

Removing Drakes from the Tech tree and making them available based on either effort or pure luck.
