Rhye's of Civilization - the fastest loading mod Expanded - PART II

[Riker]

but maybe Rhye could release rgc3 earlier.... I can't sleep at night I neeed it

 

[Rhye]

really

No, rgc3 isn't complete yet. I need some help from Blasphemous.

And, I want it to be played by a decent amount of players. In case of very few players, I'll postpone it. If I receive too few rgc2 submissions, maybe I'll add an inscription email as a requirement so that I can see how many the players are.

 

[Riker]

I hope I won't need to create multiple users to increase player's count...
Go to see batman

I'm at 2019 and still haven't got the victory. But it's only a few more turns. I will submit in time I think.

First off this is my very first post, im not exactly new to the site, been using it for a while but this is my debut in the forums. Congrats on the mod, its brilliant, cant see me using the normal games much anymore. Anyways i have one question - i really suck at games at Emperor level. Is there a way of optimising the Advances for the lower levels through the editor without altering the AI difficulty (like i said I really suck at higher levels). If not, guess ill have to learn. Anyway thanks.

 

[Rhye]

hello,

basically, what drives the advances pace is the "cost factor" in the editor. For Emperor it is 9, you could try to put it in a lower level settings

I'm at 1900 AD. I'm three turns away from the India Trading Company. I hope nobody beats me to it.

I will turn in my saves sometime late on the 26th. It will be late in the day during Pacific Daylight Time. Because I won't have time to finish until Sunday morning. So by the time it gets turned in, it may be the 27th in Italy. Is that ok with you, Rhye??

 

[Jeff1787]

I decided to finish the game, even though I have to work tomorrow. I got too interested....

I won a UN victory in 1930. I had to bribe a bunch of countries, but it worked. I had only one European city (Amsterdam)....

Rhye, I will send you a zipped file.

I'm simply flabbergasted at how terrific this mod is (1.23 ex).

haha...I just can't get enough!

Once again I say....Rhye is the King!

yes yes don't worry.

I see some razed cities from the screenshot... were you responsible for this?

thanks again. I have some surprises for you all I hope I can fulfill.

bshirt, I recall you haven't posted here for a long time....the last time was at the old thread...isn't it?

 

[Jeff1787]

The only city I razed was the site for New Amsterdam in America. I think Germany razed Paris. The French were eventually destroyed which meant no French cities in the Americas.....30 points!!!!!!

I never attacked any European cities, other than some Naval bombarments. I was attacked several times. I mostly played defense in Europe. I was worried about losing Amsterdam a few times.....

I ended up micromanaging all my cities and workers the entire game. The turns took longer but hopefully it was worth it.

I can't wait until RGC3........

 

[Rhye]

rgc3 will be a very unusual challenge.
it will be divided in two parts - one is quite standard, the other one....is more similar to Diablo than to Civ!!!!

 

[bshirt]

Rhye;

Yepper, it's been awhile. On the old thread to be sure. I was on a HOI addiction for awhile.

So I come back to the always excellent Rhye/Civ3 and quite frankly, I'm truly shocked with your expanded package (1.23). This package is, imo, much closer to a Civ4 than a Conquest "mod". It's a totally different ballgame. wow.

I've edited your 1.23 package to bigger huge worlds (random maps) and to my delight, I "still" get smooth gameplay all the way through modern times. I just bloody love it.

I posted this about a year ago and I'll post it again......

"Sid should be taking you and your team out for steaks, booze and women."

You guys flatout kick ass and take names.

Thanks for the help on the advances thing. Havent had a chance to play it through yet but ill give it a go soon. Can anyone direct me to a good FAQ for the Editor that explains all the terms such as Cost Factor, etc. and their effects on gameplay? I've tried the modding forums on here but cant seem to find a basic thing about the editor itself. Cheers.

I managed to submit in time - it should still be the 26th in italy.

It was a marathon game (to 2039AD) because I stubbornly stuck to my cultural victory objective when I could have had diplomatic or space race much earlier. And it took a very long time to clear jungles in Indonesia to get all the spices. But it was the most interesting game I've played. I don't think I've ever played a RoCX game all the way to victory before.

 

[Rhye]

we have agreed to extend the deadline to the 30th.

don't worry about rgc3, it has its steps planned, and i'm starting checking rgc2 saves now.

from rgc3 on, there will be benefits for submitting earlier

 

[Riker]

so I'll be morally forced to finsish the game in 45 hours in a row....

 

[V. Soma]

when will we have rgc3?
Tomorrow I will have a day off - plenty of time to...

Anyone down to start an SG? I do well at emperor level.
