I got the Civilization III GOTY edition by downloading it online at trygames.com. I then purchased the Conquests version from the same site to go with it, but for various "technical reasons" that were explained to me by the people with atari support, it doesn't work with the downloadable version of Civ III GOTY. (This wasn't told to me before I bought it, which supremely ticks me off.)

But anyway, I decided to make a mod importing all the conquests and PTW units and civs to GOTY. I figure since I paid for it, I should at least get to use it. Not quite the same, but I'll be working on terrains and resources later. What I want to know is this: I want to create new civs in GOTY that use the same names, leaderheads etc as Conquests. But conquests has different names for leaderheads and flics, usually with a X_somethingsomething. Can anyone tell me a thorough, step-by-step guide to add a new civ using the Conquests heads and flics?

@the mods-sorry if wrong forum, but I couldn't decide which one to use. I thought of C&C, but it's not exactly a high-traffic area.
 
Honestly, for reasons IIRC not even known to the game developers (Firaxis), already GOTY differs in some points from Civ3. The online version has pretty huge differences; I remember there was a lot of trouble getting DyP to work here. Can't even tell for sure if it was possible in the end.
So, my 0.02€: You should get a Civ3 CD version for less then 10$/€, either via ebay, or an online retailer. You'll save so much time and work and frustration, it's easily worth the money.
 
You are right T this should probably be in the conquests thread or maybe even tech support.
