Hello anyone who is interested...

LATEST NEWS: The Alpha Version of the Tech tree is now complete, along with about 95% of units and maybe 30-50% of buildings. I have finished developing the Alpha Version of our combat system, and soon we will have a tonne of fallout themed promos as well. I am really excited about the combat system, I hope people will really get a kick out of going toe to toe with guns and melee!!

This will hopefully include a lot of the elements from Fury Road and my Original Fallout Content.

Lib.Spi't · Apr 4, 2009

got any ideas? or just a whole lot of patience? hehe

Brugarin · Apr 5, 2009

I had some Usher ideas. They're in a nearby thread.

I would help further, but I'm caught up in some stuff. Have to finish college at this point.

Lib.Spi't · Jul 2, 2009

Hi anyone who might be interested, I had a few ideas about how to make fallout civs in the game such as enclave, BOS, NCR, Supermutants, etc. I had a couple of ideas for making the 'stronger factions' like Enclave, BOS and Supermutant have a much slower expansion but have access to better units and buildings.

My main idea was to give the 3 teams a UU Settler that replaces the normal settler and this new settler can only build on certain terrain features. (my thoughts were Vaults, Military bunkers and Science facilities) so that these 3 civs will grow much slower as they have to hunt out these sites where as the other civs, NCR, Tribal, Raiders etc. would be able to build anywhere.

With each of the special terrain features i thought it could generate a set of specific buildings that can only be built there. So for example you build a base on a vault and it founds the city with a vault building. the vault would be a prereq for other buildings like, water purifier, hydroponics, teaching machines etc. the same with the other two military developments at a military bunker and things like FEV vats (a Supermutant UB) at the Science facility.

Another idea was that the 3 'Strong' civs would also have a shortage of people to recruit (Supermutants can't reproduce and E. and BOS are too busy being professionals) so their strongest units would have a cap. as to how many they could build and i also thought that they would need to conquer the 'normal' towns of other civs in order to gain new recruits. I thought this could be achieved by having all normal settlements found with something like a 'village' building and this would act as a prereq for things like a recruiting office or FEV selection centre for if/when they are conquered by a 'Strong' faction these could then be used to build a recruit unit that can be taking to a proper facility and be upgraded to a number of unit types for the strong factions. Depending on tech and constructed buildings. (not sure about the theory of this part though whether you can tie unit upgrades into needing a specific building, I know once upon a time it was linked to barracks but that was back in Civ 2 i think, so don't know about the possibility now)

Some other ideas:
Tribals: Quick and easy to make warriors, a few high end cap. units like tribal machinegunner etc. with limited scrounged or captured tech and weapons used only by the greatest and most revered of them (like the Vault Dwellers Pip Boy). Also some special civ traits. one that gives a 25% or 50% increase to their safety rate so they can quickly gain access to tiles representing the fact that unlike the vault dwellers the tribals don't fear the wasteland because it is all they've ever known and have fully adapted their lifestyle to it, also perhaps something like a trait that removes or reduces the penalty costs for distance to capital or number of cities representing that each is a self contained village and they only really unite in times of need, such as wars. Also if you don't like the idea of horses in fallout I suggest that the fast infantry is a good idea and this is how i would do it. A promotion, something like 'pathfinder' that gives +1 movement, and perhaps no penalty for terrain. The way i would explain this is:

Although they would in essence have the same speed as a vehicle they wouldn't be moving as fast, only more directly, if you reach a cliff a vehicle has to drive around, a person can climb it etc. also vehicles would still have the benefit of the Old World Highways to give them that extra boost of speed, but it would mean that the tribals aren't completely left behind in terms mobile units. Also a harsh existence breeds a very lean and fit people with great stamina. When The English faught the Zulus in Africa they were amazed at how fast and fit they were, they could run for hours day after day and be ready to fight at the end of it. An incredible stamina.

Certain elite tribal units could even have this as a starting promotion.

The end result would be that the Tribals could spread out to cover vast areas quickly but would need to produce lots of warriors to attack or even defend against the more powerful civs.

Also Fallout has never fully explored America only chunks of it. Fallout was the south west, Fallout 2 was the north west, and Fallout 3 was the DC area, so it is conceivable that there could be a resurgence of the Great Plains Tribes with stocks of horses etc.

I'm currently working on changing the Fury Road civs into fallout inspired civs trying to use as much of the existing leaderhead animated art as possible I will eventually put out a graphics requested for some of these to be slightly modified or new ones made for things like Ghouls and Supermutants.

Here's my idea so far:

Brotherhood of Steel: (Obviously!!) replaces Guild
Enclave: replaces Australia
New California Republic: replaces Hopeville
The Civilised Ghouls: replaces Usher
The New Reno Families: replaces Centurion
The Wasteland Tribes: replaces Amdahl
The Raiders and Slavers: replaces Stormtroopers
The Master's Army(Super Mutants): replaces New Holy Rome (a whole new take on the Master Race Doctrine!)
The Herbologists: replaces Aquarians (I know this isn't strictly Fallout but its a blending of elements from Fallout, BeastLords + Hubologists + an Eco-movement. I just think it would be cool to have a One with Earth Eco Warrior Cult. Very distinctive possibilities. You could also blend some of the other cults like the atom cult in to it.)

Other possible groups:
Hunter's and Trapper's Guild: replace either Exodites or Kingtown
Communist China/Russian Infiltrators: replace Phoenix
The Calculator's Robotic Horde

I want to try and make the different races as distinct as possible, different goals, methods, and play styles. Some vast and sprawling others very spread out isolated, some with small powerful armies, others seething masses, high tech, low tech, etc. got the starts of a lot of ideas to make all of them capable of success, with bonuses and draw backs.

The_J · Jul 3, 2009

I didn't know, what you intended in the working thread, but this idea sounds really flavourfull :goodjob:

.

Lib.Spi't · Jul 3, 2009

yeah I thought it would make quite a nice dynamic between the different civs and also get that seeking tech mission of the BOS.

davidlallen · Jul 4, 2009

Which parts of the code are you stuck on? Are you working on modifying XML, or python, or sdk?

Lib.Spi't · Jul 4, 2009

python and XML if you go to 'Founding cities only on specific tiles' thread in the modding question section at this link?? http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=326362

You can see the story so far basically I am trying to create the settler unit that can only found on certain terrain using the python code 'can'tfoundcity' or something similar to that by adding it to the fury road gameutil file. other people have managed to get it to work in a normal bts game, i need to try and do that today to see if it is a problem with my code or some issue specific to fury road.

PROBLEM SOLVED

Please use pakbuild to extract all the art files from the fpk file in the assets directory. (Search pakbuild in the forums for instructions.)

Lib.Spi't · Jul 7, 2009

I have a very odd problem.

I am making UU's for the civs and some of them appear as unique units in the Civilopedia for the given civ but others don't, they appear in the civilopedia they just don't say they are unique to a civ. In the game they work as unique units only appearing for the given civ and with their unique unit abilities.

here's some code from the civilizationinfo.xml:

Code:

</Cities>
                        <Buildings/>
                        <Units>
						<Unit>
						<UnitClassType>UNITCLASS_SETTLER</UnitClassType>
						<UnitType>UNIT_EXCAVATOR</UnitType>
						</Unit>
						<Unit>
						<UnitClassType>UNITCLASS_WARRIOR</UnitClassType>
						<UnitType>UNIT_WARRIORMUTANT</UnitType>
                        </Unit>
						<Unit>
						<UnitClassType>UNITCLASS_MARINE</UnitClassType>
						<UnitType>UNIT_MARINEMUTANT</UnitType>
                        </Unit>
						</Units>
						<FreeUnitClasses/>
			<FreeBuildingClasses>
				<FreeBuildingClass>

The 'excavator' and 'marine' both appear as UU's in the pedia but the warrior doesn't, I had the same problem with the marine, it used to be 'UNIT_MARINE_MUTANT' but i got rid of the second underscore and then it worked however when i did this for the 'warrior' it didn't appear as a UU, but it does still work as a UU in the game?

Here is the unitinfo entry:

Code:

<UnitInfo>
			<Class>UNITCLASS_WARRIOR</Class>
			<Type>UNIT_WARRIORMUTANT</Type>
			<UniqueNames/>
			<Special>NONE</Special>
			<Capture>NONE</Capture>

They definately match and there are no errors from the game except the fact that it doesn't come up as a UU in the pedia?

I have other civ entries that are the same except they don't have an excavator and the units are specific to their civ. basically every civ has its own warrior and marine UU. The Warrior doesn't appear for any of them.

yeah the punk axeman works. it's just really bizarre

davidlallen · Jul 7, 2009

That is curious. I cannot think of any reason for it. In the basic mod, the barbarian civ has a UU over warrior, which is the Punk Axeman. Does your civilopedia show that OK? There is also no reason why subtracting an underscore should make it suddenly work. There is no significance to the exact spelling of the name. Assuming that you matched the exact spelling between the civilizationinfos file and the unitinfos file, any spelling should work.

Apart from suggesting to check everything again, I cannot provide any solid clue about what is wrong.

Lib.Spi't · Jul 8, 2009

i figuered out the problem with the warrior UU, I no longer had a standard survivor in the game (I had renamed it as one of the uniques) so the civilopedia didn't register it fully. once I put the normal survivor back in it started to say that they were unique units and that it replaced the survivor. Bit of a pain cause I don't particularly want the original in the game as no one uses it but nevermind.

Now if only I could have the same luck with my Excavator python script I'd be dancing the night away!

davidlallen · Jul 8, 2009

If your python changes are relatively local and have a comment to show where they are, I can certainly read through it and see what I can see. Are you getting python error popups, or is the code just not doing what you want?
