Snoopy's Terrain Graphics Modpack

The files in the terrain directory in the zip, go into the /Art/Terrain/ Directory where Civ3's directory is located.

I should have made a self-installer, maybe when firaxis releases a proper editor

hehe I didn't make the grass greener because I felt that the grass as it is now is fine, it did look kind of cool to have that really lush green grass, but when I looked at it again a while ago I kind of realised that maybe its a little bit TOO green, especially around cold areas, etc, I think that the original green fits well with all climates.

You can make it a bit greener, but less green than the previous version. :)

I made a slightly greener version for myself.. took me only 5 minutes to change the color balance of the files. You can compare the before and after screenshots :

Original: http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads/snoopy_original.jpg
Greener: http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads/snoopy_greener.jpg

I made sure not to make it too green. Let me know if anyone is interested in this greener version.. I can upload it and post a link to it in this thread as an alternate version of Snoopy mod... everything is snoopy, just a bit greener. :)
 
Can you do a whiter version of the snow thunderfall? I liked the bright white snow from before. How about a purpler ocean? Err, how did you change the color balance? I assume you didn't go through and change one color at a time, so I was hoping that you could let me know how ya did it.
 
Hey Snoopy I am a fan I always install your graphics every time I reinstall (many times) I include your graphics. Just wondering, unless my color is off the coast has a lavender or slight purple hue to it. Spoils the great looks of everything else. :confused:
 
Yes! Man... I love the new color of the water, it's perfect! I'm with Thunder on the green level though, the brighter green makes the world look more sweet and tasty.

And I found that an old omission is still there: the hills in jungle areas (hill jungle.pcx) don't match the jungle graphics. Except for that it's awesome!

Thanks sn00p, and Thunder for the update!

that green grass does look better =o)

What about the color I find it is the same on my other PC too! Lavender to a slight purple haze to the coastal tiles. If you don't see the problem I guess I will have to go back to your old graphics that did not have this problem? :cry:

As the mod only changes graphic files that do not differ between the German and US version there should be NO problem with the Sn00py modpack.

I only suggest to install the old modpack first and then the new one, as I also liked the old irrigation graphics that are not included in the new mod.

@Snoopy: marvelous work, thanks!

Only the color of the new buttons (ok, abort) are a bit too aggressive IMHO. I would prefer if they would use the standard palette to integrate into the stone design as the old buttons.
 
mmm... soooooooo gooood...

but - the original red mountains (mountain-forests.pcx) look fine, but when your new forests coincide with a mountain (thus making an orignal red mountain), the forest surrounding that mountain looks like the old (original civ3) forest, and it looks kinda weird. Its mainly the drab color (its kinda hard to see the difference once the trees get that small) of the trees against your bright, nice trees. (This also goes for mountain-jungles.pcx, hill-jungle.pcx and hill-forests.pcx) Just a thought though, no biggie.

Otherwise i think this is the best thing to happen to civ3.

EDIT: Thunderfall, I noticed when making a map witht he greener modpack that the hills that Snoopy did not change (hills w/ forests/jungle at their base) are still more drab - the original color. They stick out like a sore thumb. Is there any way to make these hills the new 'green' color?

This should do it:

You need to rename the file to "hill jungle.pcx" to use it. :)

PS: The greener version now contains this greener hill jungle.pcx file.

I like the modifications but only a few.

Can we get some of it instead of loading down all of them?:confused:

Just unzip the files into a temp folder and only copy over the ones you like. You can also open each file in a graphics editor for a preview to see if you like it or not before you copy it over.

What Tae Shala mean is if Snoopy were to post the files in a few smaller zip like the original, we can just choose which one we want to download instead of the whole 3 meg. :king:
 
Would someone PLEASE respond to what I see on both of my computers with Snoopys graphics? The coastal areas have a purple hue or tint to it? Am I the only one who sees this? Is the graphics mod installed wrong? Be nice if Snoopy or someone would let me know if this is known issue or just me. Thanks!
