Graphics Modification Requests Thread

[callicles]

Because we are on the topic of city-sets, I thought I would share I thought I've been having for a few weeks.

Instead of having city-style dependent solely on the civ choice, (and I recognize this may be more fitting for a mod-compent thread than graphics) what about having the city/unit style dependent upon climate, resources, civics, and religion?

Hi, Everyone!

For my new civ (Principality Of Transylvania) I need a unique building Fugitive Camp. This would be the prereq of the transylvanian uu (fugitive). This is a little camp where fugitives could be trained. Thanx

Hi, the meso or egyptian styles are wonderful ! It's just there is no appropiate bulidings to them (just the standard ones). Unfortunatly, the more standard buildings I build, the worse it looks. I hope you could create and skin buildings to fit meso and egyptian styles. Thanks!

When I think there are enough graphics outthere, I'll be sure to include them in the EDC-mod.

hey, i'm making a mod about a school feud, between students, other students, townskids and teachers, but i need some graphic texture. I know it's a big work, but it can be done. its:
- i need a city texture that Doesn't grow bigger (like a big old schoolbuildig/castle thingy. It is an academy afterall).
- i need unit textures of teachers, bullies, kids with guns, kids with spraypainting, kids on motorcycles and a speedboat. (kids = read teenagers)
- i don't need improvement texture, as they wil be deleted (it all happens inside the school buildings)

you can even make'em or learn me how to make'em. both will be appreciated

whoa, 14 pages. Any chance someone can catalog all the requests and note if they have been done or not? (I know its a lot of work ut it would be nice).

1)
I'm wondering if there are any graphic mods out there that make cottages, villages, etc bigger so they cover more of the tile and look more contiguous when next to cities.

2) Can anyone make an animated John Fremont Leaderhead? I think it could use the head of Cyrus and the suit of Washington

Do you think that if you mod the textures of the terrain and units to make it look simple like Civilization 3, the game will run faster?

Someone mentioned a crocodile graphic but I did not see it ever posted. I am not sure if it was in the unit thread or this one, but I am in dire need of a crocodile or aligator graphic as a bonus for a new terrain I have added: swamps! Could anyone please help?

Check the options in the graphics part of the options menu to increase performance. I think that would be a major project to do that, for something that already has solutions.

I know it's only been a few days since Beyond the Sword was released (or in some cases people don't even have it yet), but I would like to challenge some of the accomplished leaderhead creators to change Willem van Oranje's portrait from this:

to a more realistic, historically accurate portrayal, like this:

I would really love to see this happen!

 

[snipperrabbit!!]

lionheart, I really don't see the point of your request. There is just tedious differences and it's not worth the time expense.

I agree, its a little nitpicky, and I really don't see much need for that. If you really want it done you could try skinning.

Nico has the right idea. We need to pester for a unique Indian cityset!

I have done my share of pestering exactly for that.

The reason I asked about the Willem van Oranje leaderhead is because, as we've seen so far, there have been people who have worked on Darius (because people feel he needs a moustache), Suryavarman (because people think he needs to be less yellow) and so on..

Willem van Oranje could do with a slightly fuller beard on his cheeks and a less ridiculous Salvador Dali / Catweazle moustache.. But, it was just a request, no need to get hostile!

I'll see what can be done..

I am not any good at making or editting resources so I would like to know if some has made any other illegal substances resources such as marijuana or opium? I would also like to know if some one is working on making some new techs like prostitution and gambling? These things could make a mod more interesting.

Yes, check the database under resources in the graphics downloads. There are also some in mods. I know I have seen an excellent marijuana in a mod.

I'd lik to request a 3d leaderhead for a second Dutch leader, either Queen Wilhelmina, King William I, Thorbecke, or Beatrix. I know this is a lot of choices, but some are probably easier than others.

How about William III? The only man after William the Conqueror who succesfully invaded the British Isles and managed to take hold of the throne? Besides, if it wasn't for him, there wouldn't be all those lovely Orange-marches in Northern Ireland..

Anyway, here are some pictures of the people mentioned for those interested:

Queen Wilhelmina speaking from London, adressing her subjects under German occupation:

Johan Rudolf Thorbecke, the man who wrote the Dutch constitution. The first article clearly states that no-one, no matter what their race, creed, religious persuasion or sexual preference shall be discriminated against..

William I, the first king of the Netherlands. (Though I'm not sure he ought to be included, Aeven mentioned him, so here he is..)

The current queen, Beatrix (Again, I personally don't think she's warranted a place as a leader for the Netherlands, but Aeven mentioned her..)

William III, stadholder of Holland, Zeeland, Utrecht, Gelders and Overijssel and later, after kicking Louis XIV out of the Netherlands and James II off the British Isles, King of England, Scotland and Ireland..
