FfH2 Cosmetic Issues Thread

Something else I missed going through the text file.

Under TXT_KEY_POPUP_CONTROL_INFERNAL, "You have founded the Ashen Veil" should read "You are the first player to have researched Infernal Pact."

Playing as Rohan my first two cities were automatically named identicaly "Altheriol-ta-Mealthiel".

EDIT: Please disregard. I must have inadvertantly added a space to the intial city name and therefore the two cities were not identically named. [Thanks Emptiness]
EDIT2: I wasn't playing as Rohan, I was playing as Rohanna of the Hippus civ. [Thanks Dumanios ;)]
 
Are you sure the first one wasn't named "Altheriol-ta-Mealthielb"?

No "Mealthielb", but I notice there is a trailing space, as in "Mealthiel ".

If I restart the inital save the first city is "Mealthiel" with no space and the second city is named differently. If I restart and rename the first city with a space, as in "Mealthiel " the second city is "Altheriol-ta-Mealthiel".

So I suspect you're right that I must have renamed the first city and the second city just uses the first default city name "Altheriol-ta-Mealthiel". :goodjob:
 
The pop ups for the Overcouncil screens still make references to the U.N. Can that not be changed or has it not been gotten to yet?

How do you play as the Rohan? :p
 
downloaded and extracted art files from 41g

is elohim chariot and horse-archer still missing their body texture? i got a pink something riding horse with these two. was it just me?
 
Elohim axemen have spears (spears and shields). Why not called them spearmen instead and issue solved.:)
 
logical error in serial killer chain event - as the luchurrip, you get the option to press him into service, but since they lack swordsmen, you get a wood golem with 10 XP and crazed :crazyeye:
 
Kael, some suggestions for the 'pedia.

The Mercurians <Tag>TXT_KEY_CIV_MERCURIANS_PEDIA</Tag>

The current 'pedia entry for the Mercurians consists solely of lore. It might help -- particularly newer players -- if there were some description of how the civ plays in the game, maybe adapting some of the text from the Mercurian Gate 'pedia entry. Here's some suggested text:

"The Mercurians are not available at the start of the game, but enter when another civilization builds the Mercurian Gate world wonder. The Mercurians will take over the city with the Mercurian Gate in it and become a permanent ally and teammate of the civilization that built the Mercurian Gate. A human player having built the Mercurian Gate will be given the option of abandoning the player's original civilization and playing as the Mercurians instead.

"In addition to units that they can build normally, the Mercurians gain Angels whenever a unit of Good alignment (i.e., a unit whose religion is The Order, The Empyrean, or the Runes of Kilmorph) is killed."

I don't know if that's entirely accurate, as I've never played as the Mercurians. If you accept the text, modify as you see fit.

The Hall of Mirrors

There's no 'pedia entry yet for the Hall of Mirrors, as you know. Pending the writing of a complete entry, it might help for now if there were simply a sentence or two explaining what this building does. Something like the following:

"The Hall of Mirrors creates Illusion duplicates of attacking units."

Asylum <Tag>TXT_KEY_BUILDING_ASYLUM_PEDIA</Tag>

I would recommend adding a single sentence to the Asylum 'pedia entry, something like the following:

"Living units built in a city with an Asylum have a X% chance of starting with the Enraged promotion."

I don't remember if it's Enraged or Crazed, and obviously I don't know the percentage, but this is an important side effect that should be mentioned in the 'pedia.

Council of Esus <Tag>TXT_KEY_RELIGION_COUNCIL_OF_ESUS_PEDIA</Tag>

The last sentence of the Council of Esus 'pedia entry reads "State Religion allows access to the Shadowrider unit." In the interests of being consistent with 'pedia entries for the other religions, I would recommend adding Gibbon Goetia to that sentence.

Dwarven Vault <Tag>TXT_KEY_BUILDING_DWARVEN_VAULT_PEDIA</Tag>

I know you added information in the Dwarven Vault 'pedia entry about the increased happiness and production provided by each level of Dwarven Vault. I thought the Dwarven Vaults also provided increased Great Person Points, no? If so, I would suggest adding information about that to the 'pedia entry as well.


That's all I've got for now. Hope it's helpful.
 
In the background info text of Lucian's 'pedia entry, steel weapons are mentioned. I think iron weapons would be more appropriate given the context of the game.
 
Technically it would be better to make Iron grant Steel Weapons, in the way that Copper grants Bronze Weapons. Copper and Iron make terrible weapons.
 
Something else in the 'pedia.

The Graveyard 'pedia entry (<Tag>TXT_KEY_IMPROVEMENT_GRAVEYARD_PEDIA</Tag>) says that casting Sanctify grants a Law Bringer, should say Host of the Einherjar.
 
The artwork for the Hippus assassin is a little off, the knives arent quite in his hands, but floating in the air next to him.

I've actually been considering adding Coal, and allowing Coal + Iron to grant a new weapon type, Steel. Mithril would then be buffed, and made more rare... I think extra strength and some magic defense would be appropriate.

What art would you use for that resource? Cool idea though.
 
The War Tortoise sounds like a War Elephant? How about the loud hissing noise a snapping turtle makes instead?

Something else I apparently missed in the text file:

Under <Tag>TXT_KEY_WB_MULCARN_REBORN_VICTORY</Tag>, in the 3rd paragraph, in the sentence beginning with "Decius," the word "withdrawls" should be "withdraws."

Under <Tag>TXT_KEY_WB_WAGES_OF_SIN_TALIA_1_SHEAIM</Tag>, in the 2nd paragraph, in the sentence that begins with "The wife of Varn Gosam," the word "temperment" should be "temperament" and "withdrawl" should be "withdraw."

Under <Tag>TXT_KEY_WB_WAGES_OF_SIN_TALIA_1_SHEAIM</Tag>, in the last sentence of the last paragraph, "allegience" should be "allegiance."
