New City graphics based on CTP2

[zulu9812]

A few points:

1. Love the Middle Eastern cities!

2. The castle in the European cities shouldn't disappear - it should stay in the industrial and modern graphics.

3. The European castle should be smaller, more cube-shaped (or a sprawling layout, just not that narrow shape it is now) - and possible situated on a hill? Edinburgh Castle, for example, is situated on a dormant volcano overlooking the city!

4. I would also prefer it if the Japanese red towers (dunno what they're called) didn't just disappear.

I will do as you adviced me Zulu


I will work on them this very evening and post them here....

Thanks!!!


Any more suggestions?

Like a Church and a castle?

Yes, I am going to do that one too

WIll you use them too Zulu?

People actually download them , cool!

I am happy

And how about the Roman ones?

And I didnt work on the Amercan ones... any suggestions?

 

[zulu9812]

Perhaps the roman ones could have a colloseum, which could be in ruins in the industrial and modern eras?

Hello

I found my previous eurocities a bit dull, so I made them better

I was tired after making the asian and Middle Eastern ones, so I thought I'd gather all the junk which left over from the previous civs and make some european citystyles.

Like neat castles and churches and convents.

This was all Zulu's idea, so to him goes a lot of credit too!

Thanks for the inspiration Zulu

By the way, did you know the Arabian galley was made based on my request too?

HA

Ok

Bye bye

 

[alireza1354]

My next better version of Asian citystyle with pagoda's surviving into modern era's.


Thanks again Zulu for the advice.

 

[alireza1354]

I'll make the roman ones with the collosea another day I am tired..

Here's a preview of the new European cities. I have to say, I'm not convinced about the positioning of the castle. I think that it should actually replace the cathedral (which looks orthodox anyway). And perhaps the castle should only go on cities and metropolii, not towns? The castle could also do with being a bit bigger (I know I said smaller, but that's because I thought it was going to be on a hill).

 

[zulu9812]

Having said that, I haven't seen what it looks like in game. Presumably, if there's a hill next to the city square itself, the castle will go on the hill and overlook the city? That could be quite cool. I'll give it a test run soon and see.

 

[zulu9812]

Do you think you could add these walls to those new Asian city graphics?

Any updates ready?

Sweet. But too bad I play the Aztecs all the time, no new "America" cities. Hard to lump colonial style with native, though. Good work.

I much prefer these cities to the default ones, and even to the PTW cities.

Regarding PTW, when you build on a ruined city.. would it be possible to incorporate the ruins into the picture of the city and the city view. I think that might look cool. I was finding last night that whenever i built on a ruin, the ruin disappeared

Thanks I am glad you like them!

It is possible to incorporate the cityruins but, the cityruins would be there for a specific citysize regardless if you build a city on a ruin or not.. I think that wouldnt be very realistic.. Dont you?

 

[Danners]

I'm not quite sure i understand. What i think you're saying is that the ruins would remain just for one specific size, and would disappear if the city was larger than that or smaller than that.

I am a bit confused.

But i do like that Colosseum idea mentioned a few posts above, that would satisfy my need for ruins.

Keep up the good work, it's very impressive.

 

[Danners]

Would it also be possible to do seperate ones for Iroqouis, Aztecs and Americans. Because although they are part of the same continent, the cultures are very different. Maybe that's part of the game code and cannot be edited though.

 

[GIDustin]

Cannot be edited. I wish you could have seperate sity styles for each civ. If we could add culture groups, we could just put one civ in each and do it that way, but we cannot do that either. . .
