Hello to you all!
I've been coming to this website and over time exhausting your supply of Civ2 Scenarios. I have Civ2 Multiplayer Gold, just so you know.
I wish to make some scenarios:
1. Main Project, long term. A mediterranean scenario.
2. Shorter term. A scenario to emulate Napoleonic era sea battles (and maybe using the same technique to emulate land battles).
3. ???
I'm hoping that by posting my intentions here you'll be able to keep me pressured to pursue the idea, and also that you'll be able to offer help.
Barriers so far:
1. Creating a map from scratch, there has to be an easier way than editing each tile at a time, surely? Maybe I just haven't looked hard enough, but is there some way of either using a sort of "brush", to mouse over terrain (unlikely), or to tell the game "(0,0),(0,200),(200,0),(200,200) all plains", or such? If there is no such way then I'll just go ahead with doing it nice and slow. I see other posts on the matter and I am looking at them, but I'll put this question anyway, in case new and refreshing information comes up, oh yes, please, go off topic onto any rambling matter if you so wish.
2. Changing city names. There must be a way, but until I find it can anyone else tell me if they've done it and if so how they've done it?
3. The other stuff I'll ask as I come to it; such as "can someone please design me a graphic for a small flimsy ship that may be able to carry some cargo and a crew of 5 or 6, pleeeeease?"
Apart from that, hey all! And I like the scenarios you lot churn out and I'd love to get involved.
Thanks in advance.
