Native America Mod

I'm having problems following and reconciling the units and upgrade paths. There hardly seems to be any rhyme or reason to it. Can you shed some light on this, Sword?

I also noticed that several civs have several unique/powerful units. Does anyone see this as a balance problem?

I'm thinking about simply doing a major re-write. Initially, I would just have new upgrade paths, a couple of new units perhaps, and some new stats.

Eventually, I'm looking at totally overhauling the techs.

Would anyone be in opposition to this?

Thanks,

CK
 
Well, keep in mind that the NA Mod was my first trial at modding...so alot of things aren't going to make much sense.... :(

I have no problem with an overhaul, maybe the mod needs it. With all the new Native American stuff that people have added to this site, maybe its a godsend..who knows

What changes do you have in mind my friend?
 
It was my first try at modding, and Sword_Of_Geddon, myself and Unexisted never had the mod at the same time - there's a lot we learned, but a lot we could have done better. I didn't envisage how popular it was going to be - also, Sword_Of_Geddon and I only had dial-up modems at the time, which made it difficult to upload and download updates.

I'd be in favour of an overhaul - but I'd like to overhaul the leaderheads if you're going to do that ;) . I think that one person should be involved in sorting out the techs/upgrade paths etc - that person could be you, Colonel Kraken :goodjob: !
 
Cool. I'm all for that. It's not something I'd do in a weekend, though. I work on it a little at a time.

In the meantime, perhaps I'll put together some kind of "final patch" for the "orginal" mod to fix some of the more glaring problems.

Well, at this point then, I'd like to put out the request to the two of you (maybe more) as to what types of cool things could be added to the mod. Perhaps we could do some PM discussing or open a thread in the main C&C forum?

Thanks, guys.

Thats not a bad idea actually.
 
I have an idea for the interface. My mod as well as the War Hammer mod have changes in interface. Maybe you guys could add a more Native American feel to the interface. Like in War Hammer it's a couple of orcs with flags and in my mod it's a knight and sorceress.
 
v6.2 patch by Colonel Kraken can be downloaded in the first post. the patch ReadMe is also attached. :)
 
Thanks, Thunderfall.

What I've done is taken Patches 5 and 6 along with the fixes I've made thus far and combined 'em into one, easy-to-install and understand patch.

Hopefully I've fixed the problem of the Boomstickman and the Eagle Warrior upgrade. This'll probably be the last patch unless a major issue is found that crashes the game.

I'm looking into developing a Native America Mod 2 in conjunction with Sword, RX8FT, possibly tjedge1 and anyone else who wishes to contribute.

Thanks to all and continue to give us feedback.

DANG IT! I forgot I left it in debug mode! :cry: Oh man, I knew I forgot something. I'm so embarrassed. :blush:

Ok, here's what you do. Open up the biq file (just click on it) (Native America.biq). Choose Scenario Properties. There's a box that says "debug" or "debug mode". It should be checked. Uncheck it. Save. You should be good to go.

Oh man, I'm so sorry everyone. I'll see if I can get this fixed.

The biq has been "fixed" (no longer in debug). Thanks to the ever kind and amazing assistance of Thunderfall.



Sword: I didn't add a map . . . yet. I hadn't planned on it, but if I find a map of north and south America, I may whip something up quick for fun. It wouldn't be totally accurate, but at least would be some fun. Otherwise, I may just wait for development of NA Mod 2.

Thanks,

CK
 
Don't know if one of both Americas has been done together yet, so maybe the map should be requested and made for NA Mod v2.0
