Fallout Advisors & new backgrounds

WISE installer is not free, unfortunately. I will have to look around for something else.

Doing it all by hand is a serious pain. There are nearly 80 files and 15 folders. I'd like to spare you that pain.

Check out the terrain changes I made. Hope you like them.

A = Raider Outpost
B = Goody Hut
C = Wastelands (replaces Grassland)
D = Dead Forest (replaces Forests)
Dead Trees replace Pines
E = Hills - colored to match Wastelands

Okay, I hope this isn't too confusing. The Wastelands produce only 1 food like the old plains. The new Plains, which you can see has not been altered graphically, now yields 2 food like the old grassland. I thought this would really screw people up, but after playing it for a while, it is really easy to get used to since the Wastelands doesn't look like it produces anything and the Plains obviously looks like it does comparatively.

I'm working on a component install system, so you can pick and choose what you want to install. This will make the overall file bigger, but only by a half megabyte or so.


Buildings Added :

Jet Factory
-------------
.Maintenance and Pollution Cost is equivelant to a Coal Factory
.Cost to Build is equivelant to a Hydro Plant
.Increases luxury trading and luxury output by %50
.Makes 2 people unhappy in all cities
.Negative cultural effects
.Must have Brahmin
.Requires Chemistry

Buildings Changed :
-- note that all buildings have the same effects as the ones they replaced

Legalized Gambling (was Banking)
.Casino (was Bank)
.Organized Crime Syndicate (was Wallstreet)

Boxing Ring (was Colloseum)

Auto-Doc Clinic (was Hospital)

Merchant Caravan (was Marketplace)

Sewer System (was Aquaduct)

Let me know what you think - and any other ideas you may have!

I've also changed the borders to a solid color - I don't know about you, but I had a difficult time trying to tell where exactly my cultural border was with the dashes. I'll play a quick game and get a screenshot of the new borders soon.

www.clickteam.com has a great installer and it is free.

 

[Skarekrow]

Thank you for the link. I think this may be a better solution than the installer I have now.

 

[Plexus]

[JakeStone]

Anybody download ths guys files prior to him pulling the plug on this link? I would like to use some of his material in a mod I am making.

Hi.

This is Skarekrow.

I was browsing around a store for some older or used computer games. I had some time and thought that I'd like to play something. Well, I snagged a used copy of Civilization III. I couldn't help myself. I love this game! I downloaded all the updates and you know what? All the feelings that made me want to make a Fallout Mod came back to me.

So give me a little time to save up some money. I'll buy Fallout Tactics (which I wouldn't mind playing again either) and Fallout 1 & 2 again. Then I'll snag the new Civ3 Add on - Play the World I think it's called. THEN I'll start on a new Civ3 Fallout Mod. If anyone wants to send me these games or even a donation, I'd be much obliged.

Until then...

ciao everyone,

Skarekrow

 

[JakeStone]

Thanks for the reply. Its good to know you are still out there. any chance I could get you to post the cool custom resources you made earlier?

 

[Skarekrow]

Sorry. I'm not interested in uploading the resources unless they are integrated into a final MOD.

In any event, I'd ask that you please restrain yourself from ripping graphics and ideas from other people's MODS. It's just not cool. Personally, I think if you can't do the work yourself, you shouldn't even be trying to make a MOD.

You can do what I did. Take screen captures from the Fallout games and use those screen captures to make your graphics. It's a pain in the ass and takes forever, but it's worth it!

 

[JakeStone]

wow, no reason to get that kind of attitude. I like to play the game and I have no ambition to "rip you off". I thought your graphics were nice and I wanted to use them in games I play, by myself, or with friends. If you have such an issue with people downloading your stuff why did you put your work in the forums in the first place?

 

[Skarekrow]

I didn't "get an attitude". After all, I did say "please". I'm sorry if you felt I was being mean. I simply meant that people making their own MODs should not take work from other people's MODs. If you feel that is unreasonable, then... Well, I don't know what to say.

Once the next MOD is released, you are free to do what you will.

Thats how you make a better Scenario, mix up Scenarios.
I make up alot of my Scenarios but I also use alot of other people ideas in my Scenario( with respectful permission ) and that made them alot better.
