Hi everyone, hi Kael!
I´m playing Ffh since "light"-phase and only touched normal Civ 4 again at the release of bts, - just to comeback to Ffh after a short while...
From time to time i´d like to play good'll Civ if there wearent a few things:
What really stresses me in the original game is, that in the very moment you discovered a tech and finished building one or two state-of-the-art units there have almost become obsolet. I konw that there is the "Marathon"-option but that would not be what i wanted! I would like two have the option to set unit production and stuff to "Quick"-gamemode, and research rate to "Marathon"...
A nother wish i bare since civ III is a huge map, that, if you enable the "natural"-tarrain mode (or whatever it is called when peaks only appear in the direct vicinity of 1-4 hill tiles (depending on the mapsize) an other more realistic landscape were created) creates mountain ranges so big that they real funktin as natural barriers. It would be great to build a fort at exately that point in the peaks where the only hill tile remains! In the original Game you just build a city in a strategic place...
I´m not firm in programming or the like (as a desinger i just use my Photoshop and play games but i hardly could work with DOS) though i tried to mod old Civ III in that way. The results were horrible! Not because the map was so frick´n huge -that was great- but the fact the my old PC has to calculate around ten minutes to mange all the other 28 Ai-civ in the game, of wich i barely had met the half and who would have had 8-14 city too at that poit of the game...
Anyway i have a new PC now and tried to alter the mapsizes in Civ 4 but couldent find out where to do that. i fear it is Python or otherr creepy stuff i dont undertsand
Please could someone help me with a little hint?
i´m sry if my writing sux english is not my first laguage
