[Rufus T. Firefly]

This is a new laborer: the engineer. Better than normal one (fast worker), available with mass production?

Nice job Rufus!
I'll use this to replace the modern worker.

 

[gorn]

heh heh heh ... I've just found my new POW graphics!

 

[Colonel Kraken]

Right on! Your contributions are outstanding.

Um . . . except, how do I open an ACE archive?

You can use Power Archiver

Excellent work Rufus!

 

[Rufus T. Firefly]

Use WinAce

EDIT: added new chainsaw animation

 

[Dom Pedro II]

Wow, that was pretty ambitious since there was no chainsaw to start from!

 

[Halidon55]

Great idea. I can use some of these.

There are no files called 'engineer' in the Civ program directory, except one of the scenarios.

Where exactly do I insert the files for the 'engineer' (and 'engineerforest')? And do any files need to be backed up prior to inserting those files?

Thank for anyone's help!

 

[KingArthur]

Well if Goldflash doesn't like it I LOVE it. It can go into my zombie scenario as a "chainsaw maniac". Does it come with sounds?

You can do one of several things. You can create an Engineer unit using the CivEditor. Or you can make this a modern worker. If you want this for a modern worker, you should put these files in the Worker Modern Era folder in the units folder and change the INI file to recognize the new FLCs.

 

[Goldflash]

YAY! Chainsaw!

 

[Dom Pedro II]

I can just see Goldflash's character going nuts on the guitar at that... CHAINSAW! *crazy guitar solo*

Is this the same worker with a new forest clearing flc or are all the terrainforming jobs have new graphics? I can't remember what the original worker looks like (I don't play civ hardly at all).

Similar, but not equals. Shirt is not era-specific, and he has also his helmet. For terraforming action, I can't remove shovel, because it is also on default. For jungle, I have thinked on flamethrower, but not too appropriate to marsh. I have in mind to do pneumatic hammer for mining, but this day I have completed Galileo.

EDIT: added new mine animation

Hello Rufus ! Your unit looks great !! But I can't download it because I have not a "ace" reader ... Is it a free program ? If so where can I find it ?
Could you make a zip ? It's a pity not to download this great unit !!

As I have already said (#6), use WinAce. I use ace files because their compression is better, you can decide which dictionary use (ah, zip-whelch algorithm!)

Chainsaw? Now I want zombies.

(Looks great.)
