The Ancient Mediterranean MOD (TAM)

[thamis]

Okay, here's the solution. In the SCENARIOS/ANCIENT MEDITERRANEAN/TEXT folder there is a file called LABELS-1.21F.TXT. Delete the current LABELS.TXT file and rename the 1.21f file to LABELS.TXT. Fixed!

BTW, I made a fuller version of the Gothic civilopedia entry. Feel free to use it in your next update

Hey thanks! Just great. Did you write that yourself or was it copied?

It's an expanded version of yours! I divided it into origins, Visigoths, Ostrogoths and legacy. It was written about 3 months ago, but it was based on your original.

Finally getting around to saying - thanks for the labels.txt fix, that did it.

The "Ancient World" map needs to be updated with Timber (everywhere) and Elephants (for Carthage). Without Timber no one can build boats, which really detracts from the game. Of course, the AI doesn't make very good use of boats, so maybe it doesn't matter too much. Eh.

 

[thamis]

The Ancient World map is not recommended for play, anyway. But thanks for telling, I'll fix it.

oops - I found the "TAM" maps last night. At first I figured the ancient world map was still the one to use. Duh.

Version 1.5b is released. It features a new map, the Fertile Crescent, which is great for those whose computer can't manage past Imperial Age.

I don't remember the map name, but AI build cities on the edges of the map. You cannot see city guards, city name etc.. and it is annoying for me.

1- How do I conquer this kind of cities?
2- How AI can be disabled to build on these edges? Do I need to edit original maps?

I have v1.4 of Ancient Mediterranean MOD, but I will update to latest version soon.

 

[thamis]

I know the problem, I hate it, and there is no solution to it. Complain to the people at Firaxis.

You can conquer them by guessing their location and walking there using the NUM-Pad keys instead of the mouse.

You can get rid of this by putting mountains or desert all around the edges, because no city can be built on those. It would make the map look stupid, though.

 

[ervanit]

Yeah, you need to edit the map. Cities can't be built on mountains (and if I'm correct not on desert either, in TAM). So putting mountains or desert along the edges should do the trick, - or pray that Thamis does it for you in TAM 1.5c

 

[thamis]

No, I'm not going to do it because it would look ridiculous.

 

[thamis]

TAM version 2.0 is out!

I was wondering if you would like to add the Armenian Civilization to this MOD, Armenians afterall have been around for 3000+ years so would make a great choice. Ill be more than happy to help you with any info that you may need to make this mod. Thankyou

 

[thamis]

Unless something in the game engine is changed, we can't add any more civs.

 

[Ville]

I think you can add still 1 civ more. At least to 2.0 beta

 

[thamis]

I'll have a look. If so, I will add Elam.

 

[Pangur Bán]

Thamis. have you still got an older version of that large med. map, usable in normal games?

 

[thamis]

What do you mean?

 

[Pangur Bán]

I mean, I want that large map without the all the added graphics so that I can play it with the civ3x bix file. I was wondering if you have one?
