I have put together a list of changes that I would like to see made to the game. Unfortunately I don’t have the time to implement all of them. I am looking for people with know how to help put this mod together. I have posted a synopsis of all the changes at the double your pleasure thread.

Needed: Data Entry 1: Duties include inputting all improvement, small wonder, and great wonder information. Knowledge of the Editor a must, Civ3 MultiTool by Gramphos a plus. Should have some experience already in the moding industry, but not required.

Data Entry 2: Duties include inputting unit information. Knowledge of the Editor a must, Civ3 MultiTool by Gramphos a plus. Should have some experience already in the moding industry, but not required.

Data Entry 3: Duties include inputting all information into pediaicons.txt file.

Data Entry 4: Duties include inputting all civilopedia entries.

Animators 1: I have posted numerous bmp images that need to be consolidated into unit animations. I need these to be completed in order to have proper units for the completed mod. Knowledge of PSP or PS, as well as Flicster are a must. No artistic talent needed!!!

Follow the links to the corresponding bmp collections

Chariot Archer

Elephant Rider

Elephant Archer

Animators 2: I need artists to put together some units based off of already available units. Knowledge of PSP or PS, as well as Flicster are a must. Some artistic talent needed. The ability to cut and paste is absolutely necessary.

Units needed:
Ancient Age
Barbarian Rider - chinese rider with horns on his head
Trireme – Should be a simple conversion from the Galley - just put a bronze ram on the front and maybe throw a scary eye painted on the side
Longship – Should be a simple conversion from the Galley - just round off the front and put some round shields along the side

Middle Ages: Longsordsmen – Bjorn is working on this but ... Crusader - Should be a simple snatch and grab job from ToT Crusader unit - I can supply the images much like I did for the HumVee
Musketmen - Animepornstar has put out a beautiful preview of a unit that is perfect for this, please let us know how that is coming along.
Partisan – I am imagining the modern worker with a gun
Naval Mine - round ball floating in the water with some pressure contacts sticking out of it. - pesoloco, this one has your name all over it.
Modern Age:
APC – mech infantry, minus the cannon on top, plus a heavy machine gun turret. See here for more info

I would love to add these units:
Trebuchet
Bombard

Question: Is it possible to copy a whole page from the bic file, i.e. can each of these data entry tasks be done separately and then brought together or does it all have to be done on the same bic? If not all the Data Entry positions will either have to be handled by one person or it will just take longer as people pass the bic around.

Please resond either here or contact me at dickjensen@hotmail.com

thank you for your time and interest.

I'll be happy to help if I can.

I'm not a modeller, but I have reasonable experience with the editor and Gramphos' Civ3 MultiTool. I would also be quite happy to help with the final documentation...
 
I could do something, need help with HTML? I could do that or a beta tester, i would just like to help.
