I had this great idea

[Yoshiegg737]

I guess I'll wait for HJ or Omega to reply before I start making the mod. I just need to figure out how to do flags

I don't think you need to do that. Each civilization inside Civ GOLD are each modules. You just take out whatever civ you need from the entire collection, since they are all module. The Civ GOLD people will probably tell you this if you message them. I'm currently running my mods with about 7 civ's from Civ GOLD myself.

@Duke of Britain: If you wanted, I could put these civ's in LoR. I prefer to do Malaysia myself anyway since then I can put my Yoshiegg737 LH in it. I'll even put the German UU and UB in Austria if you want + Cybrxen (Or whatever his name was)'s diplomacy music for Austria in it.

Do it
in Civ Gold who is the Austrian leader? i don't remember well, but if he has a awesome LH it might be a good idea to give him Bismarck traits...

my name's still Huayna Capac in that XML

Changed.

The reason i didn't changed the civ names and etc : because it wouldn't change the dynamic names i think.

I tried it out and it work fine, it used the adjectives to make names.

and btw, most of the civs i put in to people had some reasons, like Red Spy is of course Russia, while Inhotep fits with Persia.

i was trying to do that (all the people in africa have africa civ's) but there were some civs which didn't fit with anyone i.e. babylon

Did you do any map changes?

I had the map ready but it didn't save it was quick to do and I will add it in a minute or two (or twenty)

I guess I'll wait for HJ or Omega to reply before I start making the mod. I just need to figure out how to do flags

What do I need to do?

 

[Duke of Britain]

I think i will just go and make some changes myself, like put your civ names, however i will keep the civs and leaders like they are at the moment, then i will try to change some things in dynamic names if i find the file (Representation will not change the name to a Republic, because i think it's quite annoying how it isn't a Monarchy, like i think it should be)


can i do some changes to names? like, Ppl Republic of redspyland short name be just Russia

 

[hoplitejoe]

It was more like 40 minutes but...

 

[Duke of Britain]

Okay, took a look and done my own changes, because i won't change to a map with such a small Europe (considering it can have lots of civs) :

Download

CIVs :
-> changed the civ names, some i ended up giving real life names, like Ilduce's is Australia, unless he says he doesn't like Australia, another example is warrior, his civ short name is Brazil and adjective is Brazilian, do i even need to explain why? i had some confusion with his adjective, and i started to think his short civ name could mean the usual civ name in native tongue or something like that
-> Civ'ed and Celtic Fury positions are changed.

MAP :
-> LOTS OF NEW RESOURCES IN AFRICA!!! i made Congo rich (!!!), it now has silk, because the game lacks a rubber resource, and i wanted the africans to have some chance, at least at tech. made Madagascar rich and civ'ed has a good position along some good areas to expand...
-> Okay, Brazil now is awesomely rich, it has lots of resources, pretty much everything anyone would need : Bananas, Cattle, Sugar, more gold, etc... and gave Oil to Rio de Janeiro coast.
-> In order to make Olaf have some chance of competing against warrior (who has one of the best city spots in the world some tiles to the north) and gave him a lot of resources, and also made his Capital a nicer city, so he can have some chance at rushing north, not allowing Warrior to block him. he also got some silver to counter Brazil new gold and commerce resources.

Well we are obviously are not going to decide on a map so maybe someone who is not in either Africa or Europe decided (looking just at the map, not the resources).

 

[Duke of Britain]

we could actually use both the RFC one and GEM
so if ppl couldn't play at GEM there would be RFC, and it would still be possible to have a nice multiplayer game

 

[hoplitejoe]

The map I have is neither RFC or GEM. This is more of a decision between the large Europe map and the large African map.
I think we can both continue making our maps more balanced and better and they probably both could be included in the mod pack but in the end only one will be played on our multi-player Game.

 

[Duke of Britain]

I know, i was meaning GEM in single-player, i think i will do the same scenario in it someday.

about multiplayer, we can just make a votation when the time comes.

 

[Omega124]

Please tell I'm not Gandi or India in the new version.

 

[Duke of Britain]

I'm mine you're Churchill, i think HJ will change it in his soon

 

[hoplitejoe]

I may keep you pink though

 

[Yoshiegg737]

What do I need to do?

I kind of forgot, actually. It may have been that if your list is accurate because I'll be using it for the first version of the mod.

Then I'll include everybody's city names that we put at the start of the thread and the flags

 

[inohotep]

if you need a person to do some modmoding of some units or buildings, I'm you're man (with the exception of art of course)
however, i cannot access my LoR files, so its easier for me to use Rise of Empires 3.5 if thats ok

 

[Yoshiegg737]

Buildings or units? Sweet, I have no idea how to mod those

 

[inohotep]

both
ex:

Spoiler :

units

buildings

these are my Civs UU and UB by the way

 

[Optical]

Nice, that should get the ball rolling

 

[inohotep]

alrighty then, i'll go hunt down the other 17 civs and when im done i'll upload it in the Civ4 download mods section (or werever you guys prefer)
update: make that 16 civs, HJ you have a civ!
