Magnificent world.the origin of civilization.

This needs to be posted in the Completed Mod Sub-forum in the Creation and Customization Forum. Would one of the moderators care to move it?
 
NSX, welcome at CFC. :band:[party] I hope NSX doesn´t stand for NSA of China. :)
As timerover posted, fo this graphics mod the correct place would be in the Creation and Customization Forum - but here in the graphics subforum as the zip-file doesn´t contain a biq.

Unfortunately the FogOfWar-graphics file, you are showing in your screenshots, is missing in your zip-file.
 
Looks slick - what is it? ;)

It's a Terrain set, it looks nice too. I generated a random world with it and was pleased with the results.

One minor comment, the rivers seem to have a sand color around them that looks a bit out of place when they aren't in a desert, as well as the pine forests have a bit of light green (grassland) color that shows up when mixed with regular forest. The overall look of your terrain would benefit from removing these imho, but great set overall, thank you!
 
Interesting. Could somebody post a better screenshot for those of us who aren't with a civ-computer at the moment? :)
 
Looks good. I like the riverbanks actually. The only thing I have an issue with is the very green mountains. They will work work in some scenarios (like my Hawaiian map), but not most.
 
Are the previews heavily photoshoped?
I'd like to use that fog of war, with the clouds and the blur on the outer edges.

The blur and the fisheye effect on the second pic (1st post) seem to be photoshop effects, but the clouds might be a real usable fog-of-war. I'd like to see more screenshots from modders who tried it.

EDIT: I thought the fog-of-war could not be modded, am I wrong ? Plus there is no such a file in the download, only terrain files + roads, rivers, irrigation and terrain building etc.
 
If you look at the screenshots closely it's actually clear that it can't be FoW. There's clouds right next to the players cities.
 
It's not FOW, it's just some photoshopped clouds. For those who are looking for the original file, it's in \Art\Terrain\FogOfWar.pcx
 
Can the fog of war be edited?

It's not FOW, it's just some photoshopped clouds. For those who are looking for the original file, it's in \Art\Terrain\FogOfWar.pcx

... and AFAIK it is hardcoded. People have modded it so that Civ3 Vanilla could use a semi-transparent one, but Conquest would not even read it.
 
I've taken a look at it in the Editor, and although it is not completely new this terrain set looks good :) The sea needs some more work but the ocean is very nice. I'll try to post a non-photoshopped preview.
 
I've been using it. I love the irrigation and forest and rivers, dislike the overly green mountains, the rest is just OK IMO. But the irrigation and forest alone are well worth the DL. It looks like you should be able to mix and match this with many other terrains.

Great work, would love to see more from NSX.
