Improved Mesoamerican Conquest

[Ozymandias]

And here I was thinking that Redalert had come back from the grave.

Grave indeed -- he's no longer even carrried on the member's list.

EDIT: Weird - I just googled him; found a post; got to his profile; and saw that his last 'activity" here was 8/17/06!

-O.

 

[Takhisis]

We can track his real location by hacking into the CFC server and looking at the IP from where he posted last time... then pin him and make him come back.
Or, we can just re-start the mod (y)ourselves.

 

[Takhisis]

here again, where is everybody?

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

i'm here

 

[Takhisis]

I´m here too.look at my avatar, title and location to understand my situation...

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

I thought Id give this thread another bump in view of Mel Gibson's new movie coming out in a few days. This is one project that shouldn't be allowed to die. Whos with me?

 

[Virote_Considon]

I am! (I think... )

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Progress report:

-Changed graphics for several tech icons.
-Added in Toltec LH and made them Playable civ with new diplotext from Far Horizons
-Added in Tria's Aztec diplo interface
-Added in new Meso units to replace standard Civ3 units.

Stay tuned...

 

[Virote_Considon]

*is tuned*

 

[Keroro]

Am also tuned. I'm not sure how much help I can really be, but if playtesting is needed then I'll have a go. This is one part of history that the original conquest scenario didn't do justice - it deserves an update. Good luck on this project all.

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Thanks Kerero. I'm going to look over Redalert's notes again. Probably put in a third era of the tech tree.

Along with that I intend on adding new leaderheads for the

-Olmecs
-Moche
-Zapotecs

and adding the

-Eagle Warrior
-Inti Clubman
-Inti Warrior
-Moche Clubman
-Andes Spearman
-Andes Guardsman

also a new bigger map.

 

[Yoda Power]

Which map did you end up using?

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

A croped version of Marla Singers map. I could use an even bigger one though, considering I want to include the Zapotecs and Mixtecs as well.

 

[Yoda Power]

Hmm isn't a cropped version of marlas map much smaller? I mean look at mexico in her map, and then look at mexico in the original map.

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

I think you may be right....

 

[Yoda Power]

Hehe, to tell you the truth I knew it from when you started to crop those maps. But I didn't bother telling you as I assumed you would figure it out pretty fast.

Then I forgot all about it.

Then I saw your post stating you got a new map, and I wondered which one you had found, that was actually bigger!

Seems you hadn't found one.

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

yeah, and thats the problem...

 

[Yoda Power]

How big do you want it? If you post a picture of the area too, then I might just be able to help you. (on the other side of christmas though)

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Same area as the Mesoamerica Conquest only at least triple the size. I hope that helps.

 

[Blue Monkey]

Having responded to your request with several cropped maps and the offer to build one from scratch:

100x100 would be excellent if possible Blue. And yes that general area is what I'm aiming for. Thanks again.

Ok, here's a zip with four maps/biqs. These are just cropped versions of other people's work from the CivFan dl db. So the names are just "cropped" + the original name. Let me know what you think; what refinements that you want.

Thankyou Blue I'll make sure to check them out soon once I've sorted out my LH problem.

and gotten zero feedback from you, it was a little distressing to see

I'm left thinking you don't want me to work on a map for you, for some reason.
