[Graphic Mod] Varietas Delectat v9.2 [civ specific unit sets]

[GeoModder]

That's an error in Cultural Citystyles. I have the same on my end.

@Avain: I'll fix it and provide a corrected PlotLSystem file.

 

[GeoModder]

That was easier then I thought.

The error was that in the medieval/renaissance era the unworked spices plantation was still referenced to the early/classical graphic. The corrected file is in attachment. You only need to drop it in assets/art/structures/buildings of your mod folder and it should show okay.

Thanks Geo!

I tried to reproduce but failed...

Never noticed this bug either, and the waterworked graphics is a component I merely incorporated in Cultural Citystyles. Never adjusted a thing about it.

version 9.1 uploaded

You can call this one a "performance" edition. I tried my best to optimize the graphics
as much as possible; meaning that VD graphics, Chuggi's CD and Geo's CC are optimized by me. (for details see changelog at first post)

@ Avain, (possibly GeoModder, too):

Just as an FYI, I have a possible error with version 9.1. I'm playing a game with the BAT 3 prototype, to check out some new additions, and when hovering over a certain city, my graphics cards go bonkers. I'm not even able to take a screenie to show you because of the corruption. Moving away from the city makes the problem go away.

There are a huge number of variables to check here, and I'll keep you posted as to what I find. The only difference between my two BAT 3 WIP versions is the version of Varietas in use (9.0 vs 9.1), and it does not happen with 9.0 in the same time period/era.

Further details to follow.

Ok. What would be useful is of course the actual city stats: which civ, what era and what buildings.

Thanks.

Not to mention what units in said city.

Nice, what kind of optimization do you do ? Just texture resizing or actually changing the nif ?

I am thinking about adding TheCapo's Tamerlane to my mod, that one could use some heavy optimization (hint)

I'll second this. I could definitely use an optimized version of Tamerlane if you are up for it, avain.

Tamerlane was actually a candidate for my mod (and still is) - I really like that LH!
So now that you explicitly ask for it, I might as well get to it

All sorts of things (yeah, nif changes too, triangulating, texture changes/reallocation in nif, sometimes I need to cut off things, e.g. Cetshwayo's armbands were having insane vertice/triangle counts): http://forums.civfanatics.com/showpost.php?p=9216675&postcount=47

you have seen this?

Yes, but I cannot even export a model that I imported to Blender (and I'm not sure my import is ok)

Timur Lenk (Tamerlane) optimized (and some small corrections and enhanchement): http://www.filefront.com/16799445/Tamerlane_optimized.7z

I will be including it in Leaders of VD, too.

i think we should discuss this one time in Ekmeks tutorial thread - or in one of mine - depending if it´s a leaderhead or unit
