[Bluemofia]

can you possibly convert the zombie into a flood human form for a halo mod?

Honestly, I don't know what you are talking about. Never seen halo, whatever it is.

Halo is a scifi 3d-shooter for Xbox (and for PC these days) known for its good gameplay, better than average universe and a nice plot. The franchise has produced a few scifi books too. Flood was a group of mutated humans. Their style was a mixture of organic sci-fi and undead.

I guess a color change and a gun instead of a cleaver would do it. Completely another thing is how sensible idea a Halo mod for Civ3 is.

That sounds interesting, but that link grossed me out before breakfast. The idea of a human becoming that.

Otherwise that would be kinda cool. I've never heard of Halo, but that sounds like something some idiot dictator would try somewhere.

Just had a thought for this unit: Barbarian Unit!!!

Just turn on the "enslave" option option the editor and its instant "Stone age of the Dead!"

Cool!

That's exactly what I was thinking. Enslave result will be another zombie. A self-sustaining army of undead!

Ssshhhh!!! You guys are giving away trade secrets there. That is exactly what I was planning for some of my undead in my mod!

The civilopedia pix are no longer included in this zip ... Sorry to pester about this.

 

[embryodead]

gorn, they are somewhere in the thread.. 2nd or 3rd page.

 

[gorn]

No worries. Thanx.

Those poor Butchers so many have died to provide weapons to the Zombie army ...
Ummm what would the stats on this smelly thing be, how do you kill the dead ??? Run him over in a tank

 

[Zagaroth]

OK, I know, seriously seriously resurrecting a dead threat (At least it's thematically appropriate...)

For my pediaicons entries, what do I use for my Large and Small pcx files? I haven't done any actual graphic work, my first mod really, so I may be just a little confused, but I thought you needed those 2 files? and they do not appear to be in there or referenced by the .ini

 

[MeteorPunch]

Here you go:

 

[Bluemofia]

You put the two files into the <Scenario search folder>\Art\Civilopedia\Icons\Units folder.

Referenced in the <Scenario search folder>\text\PediaIcons.txt file.

Here is an adjusted Zombie_units_32.pcx if needed.

 

[Zagaroth]

thank you much. That'll probably be better than the cludge I threw together form another unit.
