JFD's The World According to Modders

Four? Songhai, Ethiopia, Zulus. If you're counting North Africa then there's six, but I can't think of any way to get four.

Songhai, Ethiopia, Zulus, Morocco, I'm assuming.

Can't think of a Dawn of Man for myself

Scapegrace · Feb 19, 2016

I always forget Songhai's in the base game. No idea why. Total blind spot. =]

I can't think of any reasoning that would include Morocco but not Carthage or Egypt, but okay.

AW Arcaeca · Feb 19, 2016

I had a little fun making the scapegracian map.

Scapegrace · Feb 19, 2016

Just off the coast of Gabon, as it happens. =]

JFD · Feb 19, 2016

Scapegrace, your call on which map to use: AgggresssWimp's or Senshi's.

Though I'm gonna need a larger version of AW's, for the Dawn of Man.

AW Arcaeca · Feb 19, 2016

Oops, hadn't noticed that senshi made a map... :blush:

Well, if you do decide to use mine, here's the full size version:

This is just so much fun I couldn't help but come up with something for myself:

Enlightened Despotate of Uighur_Caesarea

Denonym: Uighur_Caesarian

TSL: Miami

Culture: Colonial (Latin Sub)

Start Bias: Avoid Tundra and Jungle

Religion: Catholicism, Santeria

UA: Vistame Lento que Tengo Prisa: Wonders produce Faith equal to their highest yield while being constructed and +1 Happiness upon being built. +1 Food and +1 Culture from all Great People tile improvements.

UU: Mambi: Is a Melee unit unlike the Rifleman it replaces, and it can become a more powerful mounted version of itself when on a Horse tile. As a Melee unit, it can build Plantations, Pastures, and Farms, and when stationed on luxury resources it generates Culture equal to that tile's Gold yield. As a Mounted unit, it has a 33% Bonus versus Gun units and costs no maintenance while at war. Can dismount again when peace has been made.

UB: Design Forum: Replaces Workshop. Every Specialist in this city contributes +1 Production during the construction of Wonders. Converts 10% of Culture from World Wonders, Natural Wonders, and Tile Improvements to Tourism.

Alright, I suppose it's time to put all the assets in one public place now that I've gotten around to redoing all my art assets (even though I somehow lost a few essential layers on the map). Also, senshi just suggested a throwaway line to tack onto the end of my UA which is XML-doable and too clever and funny to not use, so I'm putting that in there too.

First up, the Art:

Spoiler :

I think the leader scene is a bit too inherently unsettling and stone-faced to make a "hostile" version of, though. And now, for the real meat:

Spoiler :

I'll try to tackle the things I missed sometime soon. Such as the DOM Speech and Greetings/Defeat dialogue.

Typhlomence · Feb 20, 2016

Nice, a list of requirements.

Though I still have to figure out my icon, who should represent me as leader (I don't want to use a leader from one of my (upcoming) civs, and I can't draw) and what my map should be like.

Greeting and Defeat diplomacy texts.

Do you think the Master of Diplomacy Text will stop at just Greeting and Defeat lines?

Actually, maybe that would be a good UA title for me...

JFD said:
Wish for the World.

Wasn't expecting that one. Perhaps I should choose my favourite Magical Girl for this?

JFD said:
Government Preference.

Would that be from the list of four governments on the wikia page?

Now that everyone seems to be posting their designs, though, I'm worried I'll be ready too late...

Scapegrace · Feb 20, 2016

As much as I like AW's map, and as grateful as I am to him for making it, I absolutely love the joke in senshi's and I think it's too good to leave out. But we don't necessarily have to pick; if we change the colour scheme to match (perhaps the purple from my civ icon?) then the world could be in the bottom right-hand corner with the AW map title above it.

If we do have to pick, though, I think I have to plump for senshi's. Sorry AW.

With only a limited amount of time for brainstorming/coding/artwork creation and other projects that have higher priority, I'll probably be even later than you. XD Although that is one of the reasons why I'm more tempted to just work on it on my own at my own pace, rather than feel I have to race to get something submitted...

JFD · Feb 20, 2016

There's no rush for anyone. I've only released two, and there's no set plan for how long it'll be between releases - there's also no structure to what the next releases will be. Take your time.

But I thought I conned my way into high priority

Chrisy15 · Feb 20, 2016

Perhaps it would be worth creating a google drive document where the designs can be noted, so that any design changes don't require trawling for the civ's original post. JFD could make it, and then PM the editing link to anyone who is interested.

Yeah. Maybe a table could work well because then I'd know what I actually have to fill out

~~and then my civ might actually have Sovereignty support.~~

So perhaps a table with columns for everything we need, which modders can then enter rows for their designs into? Why did I have to come up with this now, rather than when JFD woke up?

That's one way of seeing it. It could also be JFD not waking up at the right time

This table thing could be really useful, actually, as long as no random (thinks of a family-friendly way of saying ba-) person decides to vandalise it.
(JFD's edits don't count as vandalism

)
