New World War II Scenario

[Nibbe]

We want SWEDEN as a playable Civ

 

[Eivind IV]

Please don't rename the cities. I hate scenarios with english names. IMHO they should have their native names. MÜNCHEN, NÜRNBERN, KÖNIGSBERG, and so on...

 

[Henrik]

Well that is all good and well Eivind, untill it comes to cities you don't know the native names of.
And for some cities you have to use transcribed names anyway, ie all the russian ones, as they use a different alphabet. Is it more right to use for instance the norwegian names for russian cities or the English ones?
What about transylvanian cities? What of the cities in China or Japan?
In my historibus scenario I ended up using english city names for everything simply becouse I had no way to find out the native names of all cities on the map.

Notes taken Henrik,

Like most of us (and Eivind!) I also prefer native names, but where's the limit as Henrik notes? I guess I will stick to the English transcription, since most city names in that context come quite close to their respective native names (In France and Germany especially) but of cause not in Asia.

Hi, BKA!

The scen looks great - I'm going to play it rigth now, but at a first glance, I suggest to you:

A) Both Barcelona and Valencia should be neutral. When the WWII started, the Spanish Civil War was ended with the victory of Franco...

B) The names of Spanish cities (in Spanish) are: Córdoba (not Cordoba), Cádiz (this is ok), Granada (Grenada is ok In English), La Coruña (not La Coruna), Burgos, Madrid, Bilbao, Valencia and Barcelona

Some nice work, BKA!

Well done!

 

[BKA]

Thx CurtSibling

 

[insurgent]

I concur.

 

[BKA]

Henrik, could you tell me a bit more about hex-editing in relation with peace between civs and barbarians. Is it possible for me to do it?

 

[Henrik]

It is if you have a hex editor (not sure how to get one for the PC if you don't have one allready and I'm on a mac. I suppose one could find them online).
What you do then is to follow the instructions in the document posted in this thread:
http://apolyton.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=50848

If you haven't done hex editing before I suppose it might be hard
There are plenty of people around who are quite handy with hex editors if that is the case though

 

[yaroslav]

I can do the hex-editing, if needed

 

[BKA]

OK, I will keep that in mind

 

[Eivind IV]

I found an error in the rules.txt. After researching Atomic components the game crashes. And wasn't Korsika French by that time?

 

[BKA]

Notes taken on the rules txt Eivind. Thx.

 

[Henrik]

That's becouse future tech isnt in the tree.

Also you cannot build atomic components/spaceship parts, as the blodlust flag is toggled

 

[CurtSibling]

BTW:
You can change those barb and bloodlust settings with Civ Tweak!

 

[BKA]

OK, notes taken.

Nice to get some more ingame feedback. I will use it all to try and make a decent final scen. Keep it comming if you find some more, thx

BTW, you might want to rename some countries into names of cities. For example , iw ould rename "Montenegro" to "Podgorica" which was the capital of Montenegro. It would also make more sense since Montenegero did not exist at the time. Instead of Indo-China, how does Saigon sound? Also, add mroe than 100 turns to the scenario. That is only about 2 years of play since there are 52 weeks in a year and the war was 6 years.

I downloaded your scenario and I really like your map. Can I take it and change it for my Post WWII scenario and in return I'll give you whatever help you need if I can???
