Wierd I'll say but any one have any Ideas on what is going down in Civ4

If anyone knew what was up with Civ 4, I'm pretty sure they aren't allowed to say. Games specifics are kept pretty hush hush until someone is told to release info. Anyone in this gaming community would most likely be told to keep their mouth shut. I wouldn't expect it real soon though, so enjoy the mods that will be released this year, because the longer it takes to finish one the more detail and complexity can be added and the more fun it will be.
 
I need someone who:

1. Understands the Conquests Editor inside out
2. Understands the Test of Time completely
3. Has extensive knowledge of history or is willing to learn it
4. Has time to spare – not endless hours a day but obviously I cannot have someone who has no time to spare either.

If you are interested then email me at teturkhan@msn.com, subject line: TET-TOT

Thanks!
 
I wish I could help. I meet the first 3. Well more like 2 1/2. I'm willing to learn.
Unfortunatly the 4th is my problem. I've got a pretty full plate right now. Sorry.
 
I have time and meet all the criterias but I am lazy:p so I will help out but I won't promise you a whole lot.
 
Te, I just send you an e-mail with I volunteer as subject.
... er... If you need beta testers just ask.
 
Lets see, its been a couple months since I last checked. Oh my, what a surprise... This STILL isn't done yet. Going on 2 years now I think.....Oh well, guess there is always Civ 4 to look forward to!
 
Mods take time, and the best mods take even more time. TET is always asking for people to join his team?

My team is the only reason I was able to get DyP done, and the only reason that RaR is even close to completion.

Modding CIV3 is all about teamwork, so if you aren't offering to help don't complain that it's taking so long. :rolleyes:

Uhm 2 years? The Conquests version of ToT can't have been 2 years in the making. Conquests hasn't been out that long. And unless you think you can do faster and have the same results, then stop popping up every couple of months and complaining like an old woman. Most of the best Conquests mods are not released yet. It's only been out 9-10 months. :rolleyes:
If your in such a hurry, maybe you should try to help, instead of whining like a child.
 
Cool, I'm glad a lot of people responded - this scenario is my favorite of all time, by far. Actually, I was trying to read through the whole thread and kinda gave up, so even if this hasn't been done in a while... I had three observations about the scenario.
Firstly, IRL in modern times, Japan's productive power is almost equal that of the United States, despite it being so small. If they wanted to, they could update their "Self-Defense Force" and become a military power on par with the United States within two decades (that's not my research speaking there, though). At the moment IG, even with Japan being almost entirely made of hills and mountains, it can't compare to a theoretical civ with cities occupying the general area of the United States.
Secondly, and much furthur back in history, the union of Poland and Lithuania produced one of the most powerful states in the history of Eastern Europe, until its defeats by (and my history is somewhat vague here, so forgive me if I'm using the wrong polity) the Tsardom of Muscovy. IG, if one were to recreate this union, one would essentialy only add Riga to Poland's territories, and this couldn't really compete with any bordering civs.
Thirdly and lastly: excluding the Middle East (heh), Russia (and to a lesser extent Central Asia) has enough oil to become the supplier of Europe and developed Asia. Since the IRL causes of this not already happenning won't necessarily occur in-game, it strikes me as a bit odd that pre-placed Russia and Siberia combined have something like one or two oils (Although at the moment I'm between eyeglasses, and I could've missed a couple).
As a general caveat, I've not exhaustively play-tested these things to come to my first two observation's conclusions, but I did look at the world map, and I did calculate terrain values for pre-placed and theoretical cities - although again, not very exhaustively. Also, there are some things I’ve inferred being attempted that might be at crossroads with implementing my observations.
Mostly I just wanted to point these things out, because they've been nibbling at the back of my mind for some time now. Best of luck with the new additions to your team, TETurkhan!
 
Hi Kryrillion,

I am glad you enjoy this mod. I think many of us desire a mod that aims at recreating history. Any imbalance you notice please let me know. As this mod becomes more complex testing it will become that much more time consuming. Any observations you mention will assist in making this mod that much better.

Thanks and I look forward to further insights from all of you. :goodjob:
 
Hi, im new the the forums. Im just wondering if theres a Conquests version for this map. If there isin't then thats fine i'll just dl it for PTW but i perfer conquests.
