This seems to be a reserved spot!

 

[Duke van Frost]

!!I reserve this one also!!

 

[Ploeperpengel]

I think we should diverse the monsterressource after the next patch like they did it in civ3. This way mapmakers can put Griffonseggs, Trolllairs, Dragoneggs etc where they think it fits. Each of these ressources should be guarded by an immobile mommy (So we should xml some immobile monsterunitversions for the mapmakers to use)

Good Idea, but first you could use the nifviewer again and put together a Monster resource with a griffon and a pegasus??

EDIT I´ll put up the resources list tomorrow, or the day after - already worked 2 hours on the lists for buildings/wonders.

 

[Ploeperpengel]

Not sure if I can nifedit this weekend but next week for sure. However they would be without animation. I still don't know how to get ressources animated. Griffon(panther) at least won't work with it.

 

[woodelf]

So the plan is to have monsters as resources ala D&D Mystara from CivIII? So if you have a road connected to an Orge resource you can build ogre units, for example? Personally I love that system.

 

[Duke van Frost]

Even without animations that would be better than those "Milkakühe" (cows painted in purple for a german chocolate company).

 

[Ploeperpengel]

Ok no problem

was the same thing in the WH mod for civ3 i think, and that´s a great system.

But I wouldn´t do it for Giants, Ogres and Halflings (Humanoids i.e.), I would rather make those units available to the races that do not naturally have them via the Dogs of War (Mercmod).

That sounds perfect Duke. I could never convince Kael to do that with FfH so it's WHFB's gain.

Your own sidekick`s not listening to you? Better get that Robin costume from him right now!

But I think it´s good, that he didn´t pick up that idea - will diverse the two mods a even little more.

 

[woodelf]

I'm not sure if Kael opted for this idea or not, but I was hoping for mushrooms as a resource that only certain traited civs could see. In a CivIII mod I played it helped civs that couldn't farm or used mountains.

 

[Psychic_Llamas]

Dwarves, Dark elves, gobbos and skaven, should have "mushrooms" in mountain and marsh squares (if marshes get included)

Wood elves should get a special recource "Forest Spirits" which enables the building of Dryads, treemen, treekin and Spites( yes without the 'r')

 

[Duke van Frost]

Updated the first post with a list of the resources that are currently in the game.

 

[Ploeperpengel]

I definitly want Salpeter in! I think that' already somewhere in the forum but I can't find it. Do you know where?

 

[Duke van Frost]

maybe in the greenmod, don´t know but I´ll search around for it, don´t bother yourself - I´m also searching for Quality Timber, that is also somewhere on the forum.

 

[woodelf]

Quality Timber is in TAM.

 

[Ploeperpengel]

Instead of a griffon as monster I tried to design a Trolllair(I would prefer some simple eggs for griffons and Dragons with just different skins later and didn't want to produce stuff not used in future releases). However I got a transparency problem with the trolls ears and don't know how to fix that. Do you think we can live with that or better I take the ears off?

screen:


Would you like to skin the mine afterwards, Duke?

Btw: I played around with the animations but they won't repeat so what we get is a troll fixed in different positions for resource default, normal, worked and not worked. you can play with that by simply switching names of the kf-files I'll send after you tell me about the ear-thing. It will play the animation for a short time in the worldbuilder but freezes afterwards. At least it will indicate if the resource is worked on or not.

 

[woodelf]

Personally I can live with that. Don't sweat the small stuff yet.
