Aha, now I get it.

Yeah, I posted a bit in the request thread. No such luck so far.

Would it be out of line just to make a new thread in the unit graphics forum? It's certainly a big enough list...

 

[sakhr]

i suggest you wait some time and repost a couple of weeks later

 

[cfkane]

Okay, just an update.

I've been toiling away on getting a first draft in. I've created all the leaders, I just need to find/make appropriate artwork for them. The three new religions are in place and they all have their buildings and missionaries, but they are still lacking building and unit artwork. The corporations are almost done as well.

Hopefully I'll be able to release an alpha version with new leaders, religions, civs, and corporations. Heroes, wonders, projects and events will have to come later (i.e. once I get artwork)

Might want to check out my super hero flags and stuff, just a thought??

 

[cfkane]

edit.........

 

[cfkane]

I think I've been planning this mod all wrong, especially with regards to the heroes.

It would probably make more sense to give each civ only one unique hero (not counting the special legend units) and leave the rest to be built by anyone, just like regular wonders. It would make it a lot easier to program as well as open up the field to other characters to be included.

 

[cfkane]

I think I'm just about ready to throw out an alpha version of the mod, with leaders, civs, corporations and religions, but still without the heroes, wonders, and events.

I've already tried to upload the file to the database, but it doesn't show up. Whose approval do I need before I post an alpha?

Try PMing thunderfall

 

[cfkane]

After a lot of back and forth, the first draft of this mod has been released.

This sounds like a really fun mod to play . There's a Civ 2 or Civ 3 mod, (I forget which), called "The World of Jules Verne" that you might want to look at for ideas. It came with one of the expasnion packs and had things like the time machine, capt nemo's sub, the country of Mongo, etc.

That was actually one of my inspirations. I was planning on making The Time Machine a world project and The Nautilus one of the heroes that will be included in the mod.

What's the country of Mongo? The only fictional place called Mongo I know of is the planet ruled by Ming the Merciless in Flash Gordon.

 

[maxbjr]

The very same Mongo ruled by Ming is what they used. It was a mainly non player civ that was located in the north Pacific islands with a few scattered outposts in other places. It took the place of barbarian civs.

 

[cfkane]

Ah. Okay.

By the way, anyone who has downloaded the mod and played a bit of it, I'd love to have any feedback at all.
