Some questions (third millenium mod)

[Crossbowman]

Current unanswered question(s):

None


I decided to put some requests here too
Current request(s) :

Request 1 : i want to make a special unit. It is a storm control machine. I know how to give the statistics (using it like an artillery), but I need a graphic for this and I dont think there is one. If someone could find or create a lightning graphic, I would be really happy.

Request 2 : I need some futuristic artilleries

Request 3 : I need suggestions for buildings. I need more than what I have now. To see the techtree and the buildings I already made, go to the link below.

Thanks for all your answers

I am using PTW version 1.04f

-Question 1: How can I share big files?

-Question 2: I created a thread named "a good future mod" when i had no title for my mod. Can I change it to "third millenium mod"?

-Question 3: How do I add pictures to the forum?

-Question 4: How can I create a pcx file? (I want to add my own leaderheads)

-A1: Bigger than 5mb, you need to contact the admins. I think.
-A2: You can't, you have to contact a moderator to do it for you.
-A3: If the graphics are already on internet, you need to use {img} like this:

{img}http://myspace.com/mypictures.jpg{/img}
(Replace {} by [])

If the picture is on your computer, use the attachment function.
-A4: Use GIMP to edit your pcx file.

You should have read the FAQs before asking this. However, I´ll answer you.

1. Upload them to the server with the button in the bottom that reads "upload file"
2. Ask a moderator to change it. Any one of them will do it if you ask them properly.
3. You can use [/URL] code or attach them.
   [*]You should use a graphic edition program.
   [*]Check the utility programs section, and the tutorials section.
   [*]Are you talking about improvements?

   I don´t know why I´m answering this :p
   How old are you?

Thanks for your answers. (sorry i didn't see the FAQ)
But I have new questions now.

-Question 5 (continues question 4): Is there a tutorial somewhere that show how to convert pictures to pcx file and what graphic tools can I use (free).

-Question 6: What are the flags "enable recycling" and "+50% luxury output" in the editor (the help say nothing about these)

 

[Takhisis]

Again? Check my other post above for the answers.

No need to be so harsh, Takhisis.

5. I don't know if there is a tuto. Search in the tutorial subforum. Creating PCX files is quite easy once you understood the palette. The GIMP is a excellent free program.

 

[Takhisis]

That´s being harsh? Sorry, then.
I don´t like GIMP much. I prefer CorelPhotoPaint6 or POV-Ray.

Also, please bear in mind that "millennium" is spelled like that, if it's going to be in the thread or mod title!

 

[Takhisis]

Down with ortography! aaargh!

 

[Plotinus]

Well, I know we're a little looser here than in real life, but you wouldn't want a spelling mistake in the TITLE of your mod, would you? That wouldn't inspire confidence!

 

[Crossbowman]

Sorry, english is not my main language. This will be corrected.

+50% luxuries does what it says - the city's luxury production is increased by 50%.

Enables recycling? I assume you're refering to the tech flag - if you have the tech in question, you get some shields when you sell a building.

 

[Takhisis]

+50% luxuries does what it says - the city's luxury production is increased by 50%.

D´you mean the luxury resources or the happy faces from the "Artists"?

 

[The Last Conformist]

The luxuries from the luxury slider.

 

[Takhisis]

Hmmmm... sounds interesting.

 

[Crossbowman]

Good! The luxury slider. Now I can understand. But... What slider?

 

[The Last Conformist]

The luxury slider on the Domestic Advisor screen. Below the tech slider.

 

[Takhisis]

pressing [F1] you can access the advisors, you know

 

[Crossbowman]

So it increases the amount of happy faces created by financing entertainment?
