I'm beginning now with the resources

I am really looking forward to this one, when you have completed the resources. If it is as good as your....

Rhye's Terrain mod pack

It has to be worth waiting for

Rhye ? Will you make same thing that your special map with specials rules for accelerate the turns ?

Can you make a 16 Civs and 31 Civs version of map with ressources ? Or it's in your mind ?

Good continuation !

Thanks, people.

I'm going to put all my works together: the map, the terrain graphics and other addictions into a new version of my mod.

I'll post here the standard (16 civs) and Conquests (31 civs + volcanos + marshes) of the map, with no rule changes.
After this, I'll begin updating the Rhye's of Civilization thread.

v1.4 with resources, goody huts, barbarian camps etc. available.

1.4 because while I was putting resources I corrected many regions.

 

[Rhye]

I have noticed that there's a 2/5 mark regarding the projection: is it about the fact that Robinson's projection isn't good as it is (it's not my fault) or that my conversion of Robinson's isn't good?

 

[Lachlan]

Civs are placed ?

Quid Spain/Portugal, Ottomans/Byzantines/Hittites or Sumeria/Babylon ???
Or Mayans / Aztecs ?

 

[Lachlan]

I downladed it, it's only a .bic

I want a .biq, me !

You plan for 16 or 31 Civs ?

 

[Rhye]

Please wait!!!
If I had done the .biq, there would be no way to convert it to .bic; that's the reason for I've posted the bic for now

 

[Rhye]

I've found an horrible bug!!!

In Conquests, Spain messes up the starting locations: its location is exchanged with some other civs. Sometimes it's in Rome starting loc., sometimes in Greece, etc.
I tried everything, changing colors, even deleting and re-creating Spain...nothing to do.
This is a bug which Conquests introduced and it has nothing to do with my map but it happens in EVERY huge map with civs > 20.
The only solution I've found is un-assigning Spain starting location: it works if in the startup screen there's "ALL RANDOM" selected, but it WON'T work if the player is Spain.

Tomorrow I'll post the "definitive" versions, hoping that this bug will be fixed in next Firaxis patch. In the meantime I'll open a thread to make everyone know of this.

I hope you're going to make a version with resources for 16 players for C3C too. 31 players is too much for most, and playing with (considerably) less civs there will be too many resources.

The version I've done for C3C has only the new resources (tobacco, fruits, sugar, oasis) added. They should't change the way civs develop too much. If you want to play with 16 civs, just select 16 of them in the startup screen and put "NONE" in the remaining slots. Or you can change the numer of civs in the editor.

But why have you got all this problems?
If you fear that your PC won't be able to manage a game in a world map with many civs, you've probably never tried my mod.
Do you see the first link in my signature? Go there.
With that mod you can play with 16 civs in a world map, with loading times cut up to 96%.
As it is for standard Civ3 and PTW, the main reason of the creation of my map is that I'll update my mod with Conquests civs and this new map, trying to mantain small loading times.

Double post

 

[Jin23]

Have you tried ticking edit player data under the scenario properties tab and then saving? That could solve the problem.

 

[Rhye]

Yes!!! It's solved!!
I'll update the file at once.

 

[Jin23]

The link to the conquests biq doesn't work

 

[Rhye]

It works...

 

[Pascal]

The conquests link doesnt' work for me either...All what I get is pictures of different maps of the world.Please fix it, I have been expecting this map so much

 

[VimesUK]

Sorry Rhye but you are getting out voted here - your C3C links do not work to download the file whilst the PTW link does for that version

[Rhye]

I've tried to clean my temporary internet files and then download, and it works for me!
Try to clean your temporary files before download, as I've attached the files in slots previously used for images

Anyway I've re-uploaded the C3C file. Does it work now?
Do the bic and bix work?

 

[VimesUK]

That sorted it Rhye

If you mean by working that they load up fine then both the Conquest and PTW versions have loaded up and I started a game with them. That is all that I have done at this stage. It would be interesting to see if not so much load times are reduced but the time that it takes for each turn when the game is advanced, that can be the issue as I see it
