Leader Flics

[stainz]

Not sure if this should be posted here, but i am wondering what the difference between these Flc files are:

/Art/Flics/??_01.flc
/Art/Flics/??_02.flc
/Art/Flics/??_A01.flc
/Art/Flics/??_A02.flc
/Art/Flics/??_B01.flc
/Art/Flics/??_B02.flc
/Art/Flics/??_C01.flc
/Art/Flics/??_C02.flc
/Art/Flics/??_D01.flc
/Art/Flics/??_D02.flc

I do know about the forward and backward thing, but all the leaders only have 8 Flcs each (except for Ghandi, which has 10), and there are 10 types of Flics.
This is what i,m tring to get at:


list of Gh_flc

/Art/Flics/Gh_01.flc
/Art/Flics/Gh_02.flc
/Art/Flics/GH_A01.flc
/Art/Flics/GH_A02.flc
/Art/Flics/GH_B01.flc
/Art/Flics/GH_B02.flc
/Art/Flics/GH_C01.flc
/Art/Flics/GH_C02.flc
/Art/Flics/GH_D01.flc
/Art/Flics/GH_D02.flc

it has all 10 flcs




list of Ab_flc

/Art/Flics/Ab_01.flc
/Art/Flics/Ab_02.flc
/Art/Flics/Ab_A01.flc
/Art/Flics/Ab_A02.flc
/Art/Flics/Ab_B01.flc
/Art/Flics/Ab_B02.flc
/Art/Flics/Ab_D01.flc
/Art/Flics/Ab_D02.flc

but no Ab_C01 or AB_C02 flc




list of Al flc

/Art/Flics/Al_01.flc
/Art/Flics/Al_02.flc
/Art/Flics/Al_B01.flc
/Art/Flics/Al_B02.flc
/Art/Flics/Al_C01.flc
/Art/Flics/Al_C02.flc
/Art/Flics/Al_D01.flc
/Art/Flics/Al_D02.flc

but no Al_A01 or Al_A02 flc




list of all Mo_flc

/Art/Flics/Mo_01.flc
/Art/Flics/Mo_02.flc
/Art/Flics/MO_A01.flc
/Art/Flics/MO_A02.flc
/Art/Flics/MO_B01.flc
/Art/Flics/MO_B02.flc
/Art/Flics/MO_C01.flc
/Art/Flics/MO_C02.flc

but no MO_D01 or MO_D02 flc

I,m not even if this is relevent to the game, but i,d really like to know.

I believe the A,B,C & D is mean for era images. Therefore, if you have one that the Modern and Industrial images has the same background then you might only have A,B & C instead of all 4. I believe you can check the file used in Civ3edit.

I,ve added some civs to my bic and was just wondering what ones to use

a?
b?
c?
d?

or all of the above.

Right now, my eras only lead to one flc for each of the civs
ie... Art\Flics\Tr_01.flc and nothing more. it works, but i would like to try and fix this up.

Plus i,m trying to figure out that buggy F4 key at the same time.

I,ve changed a few of my gfx, and it seems to be a little more stable.
Now, instead of getting kicked back to the desk top everytime i touch it, it only happens about 20% of the time. Which is a good thing (-:

Actually if you look in the bottom right hand corner of the civ3 civilization editor, you will notice a place where it asks you what flics you want to use more each era. So you can name them whatever you want, as long as you change them there
