How to import existing civs into a scenario

I want to know how to add the zulu civilization into age of exploration for example, I can do most of the things but things like pediacoons and animations and images I cant do. Pls help

I would be happy to help. Okay, first lets check out the easiest of the two: the Animations. To change the animation, we need to head to the Civ3 editor for Conquest, and head on to the Civilization editor within the program, which is located on the almost top right corner by default (I'm using Babylon as an example, which you can see in the attached file). Now since you're basically porting an already existing civilization in the vanilla game to the scenario, copy the filenames from the Zulu and paste it on your new civ. In total it would be 8 pastings because we need to consider the eras from Ancient Times to the max era (Which in this scenario would be The Renaissance in the scenario, Age of Discovery).

Pediaicons is a bit tricky because there's a fair amount to do but when you get the hang of it, its alright. Head to the Pediaicons of both the normal Civ3 base game and the other from the Age of Discovery. Now copy all the information from the Zulus and paste them to the Age of Discovery Pediaicon file.

If you want more information or specifics on how to do it, I suggest heading to this forum here, which shows how to create a new civ, and it has images so it makes it all the more convenient. Hope this helps!
