Help please with displaying more than 3 yields on a plot

[johny smith]

I am trying displaying more than 3 yields on a plot, and looking for help if anyone can figure out a way. The folder for it is Art/Interface/Symbols. I increased the size of the vertical_symbol.dds and have it working mostly on displaying new yields. But I am having trouble with the NIF'S to make it display more than 3 on one plot. When I export from 3d max it strips extra UV sets from the NIF. So was wondering if someone at least knows a way to keep the data in the NIF.

Anyway there is a link of what I began anyway. The symbols need tweaking more I know, but before I put more time in it I would like to know if it is possible to display more than 3 yields on one plot.

If anyone wants to try and figure out a solution you would have my many thanks.

Here is a look at it anyway.

Well I finished it the best I can for the yields added anyway. Just put three on a plot at once at most anyway. 6 were added health, fruit, wild_game, fish, timber, and ore. But there is no point of displaying the health unless there is a way to increase the types of yields displayed at once on a plot. Anyway if someone tries to help thanks in advance.

It is possible to display more in Colon. so it might be transposable in Civ4 if it is only SDK or probably not if related to the .exe.

Ya I think it is possible in COL but not sure how. They changed the art setup from Civ in COL.

Civ makes some NIF's for them and links to a texture that looks like an atlas. But I there are no art defines for the one part for the displays on the map, and I have saw nothing in the SDK.

COL just uses an atlas has no other files what so ever. No NIF's. Nothing but an atlas of some sort.
