Pounder's Resource File

[Nathiri]

Hey Pounder. I know this isnt a good place for requests, but I was wondering if you could put together a sort of lumber camp graphic. As a resource is fine. I can put something okay together that would work, but I would prefer a higher quality one. I cant seem to find one specifically on the site so far, since most are just wood, and I would like a camp or 2 with it. Any extra detail on a map is always nice.

This is as good a place as any to make requests.

If you are looking for something bigger than a resource icon (only 49x49 pixels), check out Goldfools terrain buildings https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/goldfools-graphics.252989/page-11#post-8741037

I am actually intending to use it as a terrain building, but it's easy enough to copy it as a resource. There is actually a terrain building that looks like a lumber camp in one of Goldfool's, though it looks a bit cartoony. I am intending for it to be a Mine replacement on a forest.

Thanks for the fast work. I hope I'm not asking too much, but is it possible you could put some colouring on it so it looks more natural in the world? I was actually hoping it would look similar to some of your detailed and nicely coloured resources in your resource file, but that must be quite a bit of work to make. I have made something decent as a placeholder using your campsite resource that you posted just recently, and I added lumber logs, which are pasted over the campfire. It looks the best so far out of some other possible options I found.

Okay, here are the downloads.

Stole a frame from Plotinus's Mammoth Unit to make the mammoth resource, re-coloured the gold to make the copper, made a new bison and a new potatoes. Added your original resources to the bottom of the resources file so you still have them.

Replace old files with the new:
resources.pcx is in the "art" folder
luxuryicons_small.pcx is in the "art/city screen" folder
1)Rename and save the old files.
2)Copy in the new files into their respective folders.

Are you using a MAC, if you are there should be no issues.

Pounder, if you ever visit the Chicago area, I owe you a nice meal on me. Otherwise, if you ever need any research done or ideas for unit values, please let me know. Thanks so very much.

Edit Note: I assume that I could plug some of these into Play the World as well?

An ice rink complete with Zamboni.

Even those living in the tundra need entertainment.

Greetings Pounder. I would figure that resource good for 2 Commerce and 2 Gold. The commerce from the businesses making souvenirs and the concession stands while the gold comes from ticket sales and tax receipts.

Hey pounder can you teach me how to make a resource like how you did

Hey pounder can you teach me how to make a resource like how you did

Sure, this is how I do most of my static graphics.

I use MSPaint and GIMP.

I start by using MSPaint because it is easier to move things around and layer things, then I save it as a PNG file.

I then open the PNG file with GIMP, scale to the size I want, convert file from RGB to indexed, add the transparancies, then save as a PCX.

I just have it set for 2 Commerce and I have it start fairly late in the game with combustion.

Greetings Pounder. You need to consider entertainment taxes. They will be about $10 to $15 per ticket for every ticket sold. Lots of revenue for the city government.

It's just for recreation, outdoor rink, not an arena in my game.

I'll post the single for now.

Hey pounder you can see my requests in my request threads

Hey pounder you can see my requests in my request threads

I looked at your request thread, you don't have any pictures on your request thread.

I'm not sure what you are looking for most of them, I suggest adding pictures for them on your thread.

I might look at doing a few of them, maybe some of the fruits and nuts......
