Introducing a space-based mod for civ3: PTW version
Space colonisation and interstellar war
>Download Link< 13.6 megs
unzip to 'SpaceWars' subdirectory in your scenario folder, then play the scenario : Download scenario file
(thanks to thunderfall for the upload)
(early expantion)
(late game clash of titans)
(selection of spaceships)
Its not finsihed exactly, as there are many things missing. Different races, diplomacy animations, and building graphics are still standard civ3.
What is there are the terrain and resource graphics, units, 3 ages of technology, some interface graphics, 2 races (generic human, and one 'satelian' tribe) and the game system.
I am posting this here, because unless i get some kind of major inspiration, i doubt ill get get any further. But its actually quite playable as it is, and quite fun (in my biased opinion)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
About playing the game (if anyone gets that far)
There is no 'sea'. All the galaxy is 'land'....
Settlers are colony ships, but not everyone can build them at the start, it requires space colonization tech. You can only build cities on 'star' terrain, which are usually surrounded by at least one 'planet' bonus or strategic resource. Note that no units apart from colony ships can enter 'star' terrain, but once a city is built there, it becomes passable (and attackable) by all units, as it changes to 'settled star' terrain.
Workers are construction ships, mining and farming are only possible on some planets, and this also requires tech.
Its best to expand fast, the most needed resources are mineral mining and rare metals.
There is currently only one scenario, with one galactic map (screenshots show an unfinished map). Random maps are not possible with this mod, i can make more maps if anyone really wants,
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Im also posting this as resource for anyone else making a space style mod. Feel free to use anything here, as long as some credit is given
Bear in mind, the following people helped out:
Bobisback (Many ideas, Civlopedia entires, and PTW conversion of original test version, and other work)
Ed O' War (Many ideas, Civlopedia entries,Empire in Flames scenario)
Smoking Mirror (Some cool planet graphics)
andrew510 (civlopedia stuff)
Probably other people too! sorry i cant remember where i got some stuff from.... heres a link to the old thread
All spaceship graphics are by me, and the technology icons are taken from the ancient game 'deadlock II' (i didnt make them).
Thanks very much if anyone tries this out. Feedback also much appreciated!
