Steph mod: progress for icon maker and text writer

[BeBro]

Ok I created some more, but I have difficulties dealing with the scifi stuff - laser weapons, cyber things etc.

Could you describe the futuristic techs a bit so that I get an idea about them? Would be easier to make the pics then

 

[Steph]

It may be to long to do all of them. Could you be more specific about which one you plan to work on?

Here are some answers :
- Laser weapon : will allow laser infantry and tanks (Neomega's). The icone could show a kind of laser rifle hitting a metal plate, the plate glowing red at the impact point
- cybernetics: show a robot that looks humanoid (but it should remain obvious it's a robot)
- cyberwarfare : there a nice mecha unit in a street would be nice, as the mecha are supposed to have bonus in cities
- Cyber armor : shows an exoskeleton for infantry : personnal armor is simply a kind of heavy bullet proof jacket, cyber armor includes helmet with electronical sighting, etc.
Cyber armor -> Balou's armored shock infantry

 

[BeBro]

That´s enough for the start. I´ll ask again once I´ve done these

 

[BeBro]

Ecology
AgroIndustrie
Miniaturization
Superconductor

 

[Yoda Power]

Nice icons

 

[Steph]

Nice indeed, although at first galnce I thought BeBro made an error, and name superconductor a tech that is not in my tree "patchwork", for the "cloths and fashion mod"

However, I have a pb with ecology : it looks to similar to recycling.

Perhaps something like Greenpeace could be a better icon?

 

[BeBro]

carrier task force
adv. mathemathics
sythetic fibers
fusion power
tracking systems

 

[Yoda Power]

Nice icons BeBro, when your finish I think im gonna update the Compiled Icons thread

 

[BeBro]

Well , one thing I should add: I made most of the gfx myself, but some were made using pics from the net. No prob as long they´re only used for non-profit purposes like Civ3 mods, but I think I should clarify this since eg. Firaxis asked all who want have their mods on the Conquests CD to remove gfx that may cause copyright problems.

 

[Steph]

Thanks!

I don't think I will have copyright issue. As I'm not in the beta test, my mod will not be included in the CD...

But these nice icones will probably see a second life in another game

 

[BeBro]

No casually doctrine
Laser
Mass transit



I think the most are done now, just some left.

 

[Steph]

Well, not really finished. The remaining one are :
- Global economics, chaos theory, unified physics, hover propulsion, laser weaponry, armor tradition, composite, naval force projection, modern naval tactics, advanced infantry tactics, cybernetics, advanced composite, ecology, fuel cells, cyberwarfare, cyber armor,

So that leans 16 more.

And then, there are the 357 icons for the new techs in SSS.

...


... Just joking ...


...

There are 358 icons, not 357...

 

[BeBro]

Today:

Unified Physics
Chaos Theory
Naval Force Projection
Modern Navy Tactics



Edit: oh, and what unit gives "armor tradition"? It is hard to see, thre´s the number "above"

 

[Steph]

Armor tradition gives modern armor such as M60 or T55.

 

[Yoda Power]

Thanks BeBro

How many icons is left?

 

[Steph]

12 for Steph's mod. And 346 for SSS

 

[BeBro]

-armor tradition
-cyber warfare
-fuel cell
-global economy

 

[Steph]

I've used cyber warfare for cybernetics instead.

I think the name of the tech is not perfect and may have lad to some misunderstanding.

Cyber warfare is the tech that gives the mechs units (like battle mech), and not a kind of virtual warfare through computers.

 

[BeBro]

Today 3 reworked things:

ecology
cyber warfare
combined arms (did this for Kal El but he said it would fit better as the icon I made previously for your mod)

What is left now?

 

[Yoda Power]

hmm this just reminded me of the compiled icons. My computer is infected with virus, so I might not be able to save all the files I have downloaded through time, therefor the icons might not be updated(which I promised they would), im very sorry

oh nice icons as always BB
