The Ancient Mediterranean MOD

HolyOne · Feb 14, 2006

When we will have the new civics integrated? Because now there are only the original ones and most of them can be chosen even in the 1st turn.
I possibly can't wait to try the final version. I have heard praises about the civ3 version but I did not have the pleasure to try it.

No clue... How did you launch the MOD? Did you double-click the map file?

Yep. I guess you have to go: advanced>Load a mod
It worked when I used this method to load it.

Thanks!

Version 1.0 is coming out soon, but I can't say when because right now I'm not working it. Benoit is working on it, but he's almost done, just need a few more text entries and a bug fixed.

Laurino · Feb 14, 2006

The text entries are all ok (for french and english) I'm posting the txtfiles for you spirit, we need your spanish input... As for the bug with the shrines, it's fixed... The civics are linked to the good techs, so the only "basic" thing missing are some unit icons, wich I intend to do in the coming hours...
I guess V1.0 will be released soon then!

One thing... We will need some quotes... related to technologies... It's not THAT urgent, but if some of you already have ideas, feel free to share them!

Yea, but those are all mods that modify the original game. This one goes a bit further.

In the first file (CIV4GameText_Civilopedia_BuildingsProjects_TAM), all seems correct no?

onedreamer · Feb 15, 2006

seems to me the only finished file of those three is CIV4GameTextInfos_Objects_TAM. Quite long to translate actually. Viriato after you finish this file can you attach it so I can do the italian part.

edit: on another note, I have the problem (bug ?) that religion icons only show properly in the tech tree and the religion screen (F7). But in the score listing and on the cities I see the original civ icons. I've been looking a lot of times into the xml files and I can't find the error... does anyone else have this problem too ?

Ese italiano bueno...

I have a doubt with the texts:

The french and spanish text:

<French>
<Text>Missionnaire animiste</Text>
<Gender>Male</Gender>
<Plural>0</Plural>
</Italian>
<Spanish>
<Text>Misionero animista</Text>
<Gender>Male</Gender>
<Plural>0:1</Plural>
</Spanish>

1.- I can translate de gender and put "Hombre,mujer"
2.-and what is plural? I see that french put 0, why spanish is 0:1?
3.- I can put this signs of punctuation í,ó,ú,á,é,ï,ö?
3.- I put civilopedia in spanish for this religion (Zoroastrism), I don't know how can i add this in the texts.

El zoroastrismo o mazdeísmo es una religión basada en la adoración de una deidad suprema llamada Aura Mazda u Ormuz («el Señor Sabio&#187, acompañada de los seis espíritus de la verdad, la justicia, el orden, la docilidad, la vitalidad y la inmortalidad.

Era una religión dualista, pues a este dios de la justicia y la verdad se le oponía un espíritu del mal, llamado Ahriman. Los mazdeístas suponen que los individuos son libres de elegir entre el bien y el mal, pero que existe un imperativo moral para conducirse de forma justa y que las fuerzas superiores de Aura Mazda acaban por imponerse siempre; la creencia en la vida después de la muerte traduce esta confianza en el triunfo de las fuerzas del bien.

La religión fue fundada por el profeta persa Zoroastro,(Media o Bactriana ?, h. 628 - ?, 551 a. C.). Él mismo redactó unos cánticos llamados gathas, que constituyen el componente más antiguo del Avesta o libro sagrado del mazdeísmo. Luchó contra la religión politeísta dominante en el mundo indo-iranio y consiguió convertir a un príncipe de la región periférica de Asia central llamado Vishtaspa, que le protegió y facilitó la extensión del mazdeísmo. Y cuando la región fue incorporada al imperio persa -en la época en que murió Zoroastro- su religión comenzó a extenderse por un espacio mayor, siendo adoptada por los emperadores Aqueménidas.

I look information about missionary aesir, and the text is bad, the correct religion is Ásatrú not Aesir. I put civilopedia in spanish an english.

Ásatrú

Ásatrú is an Old Norse compound derived from Ása, the genitive of Áss, which refers to the Aesir, (one of the two families of gods in Norse mythology, the other being the Vanir), and Trú, literally "troth" or "faith". Thus, Ásatrú is the "Æsir's faith." The term is the Old Norse/Icelandic translation of Asetro, a neologism coined in the context of 19th century romantic nationalism, used by Edvard Grieg in his 1870 opera Olaf Trygvason. The Icelandic form of the word is first recorded in 1945 in Heiðinn siður á Íslandi ("Heathen traditions in Iceland") by Ólafur Briem. Ásatrúar, sometimes used as a plural in English, is properly the genitive of Ásatrú.

Use of Ásatrú for Germanic paganism preceding 19th century revivalist movements is therefore an anachronism. Likewise, use of Ásatrú as a synonym of Germanic Neopaganism, while widespread in the USA, can be misleading. Organizations self-describing as Ásatrú cover a wide spectrum, including left-wing or alternative New Age, tribalist or reconstructionist, folkish, and neonazi (e.g. Artgemeinschaft) movements. In the strict sense, the term refers to reconstructed medieval Norse or Icelandic paganism and in particular to the Íslenska Ásatrúarfélagið.

Asatru es una versión moderna de la antigua religión pagana Norse.

El Asatru enseña que el objetivo de vivir es tener una vida útil y valiosa. Rechazan la cultura moderna. Valoran la libertad individual, limitada responsablemente. Estipulan sus valores en sus Nueve Nobles virtudes: coraje, verdad, honor, fidelidad, disciplina, hospitalidad, productividad, auto-control y perserverancia. Rechazan jerarquías y dogmas. Creen en la importancia de la familia y se reunen en agrupaciones para adorar a sus dioses.

Esta religión reconoce a muchos dioses y diosas divididos en dos categorías, Aesir y Vanir. Thor el dios del trueno es el poseedor del Martillo Mjolnir, forjado por los enanos Sindri y Brokkr. Odín, el padre de todos los dioses aesir, es el dios que le otorgó al hombre su naturaleza divina. Es el dios tuerto, que vendió su ojo al gigante Mimir a cambio de sabiduría y aprendió los misterios de la magia y las runas tras pemanecer ahorcado durante nueve días con sus noches. Freyr es el dios principal de los Vanir y el representante de la paz y la fertilidad por lo que se le suele representar en plena erección. Freya es la diosa del amor y la belleza además de la reina de la Walkirias y heramana de Freyr. Frigg es la diosa esposa de Odín y comparte su liderazgo. Otros dioses y diosas adorados en el Asatru incluyen a Tyr, Balder, Eir, Gefjion y muchos otros

Ásatrú es una antigua religión/mitología conocida también como paganismo nórdico. El término proviene del islandés. Proviene de las palabras Ása, que significa dios o diosa y trú (modernamente tro) que significa verdad, lealtad. Así, Ásatrú viene a significar "lealtad a los dioses".

El ásatrú es una religión politeista, que data de la época precristiana de los países nórdicos (Escandinavia, Islandia, Inglaterra, Alemania). Sus dioses y creencias se engloban en la mitología nórdica.

Hi Spirit!
Ok for the texts, lets take this exemple...
There is only one entry that can go in the description... You can't have both female and male entries... It's one or another, and this affect the way the whole sentence is written, to make the word fit in... For plural, when there's only one number (<Plural>0</Plural>) or (<Plural>1</Plural>), you only enter one word, and it will be either plural or not, according to the number you entered... If the line is : <Plural>0:1</Plural>, then you can enter 2 words, and they will be used according to the situation... Here's an exemple with mujer:

<Spanish>
<Text>Mujer</Text>
<Gender>Female</Gender>
<Plural>0</Plural>
</Spanish>

OR

<Spanish>
<Text>Mujer:Mujeres</Text>
<Gender>Female</Gender>
<Plural>0:1</Plural>
</Spanish>

Both of these are good...
This one, on the other side, isn't:

<Spanish>
<Text>Hombre,Mujer</Text>
<Gender>Male, Female</Gender>
<Plural>0</Plural>
</Spanish>

So to sum it up, a word can be either single or plural, but CAN'T be of both genders... Single or plural masculine is good... As is single/plural feminine... But it can't be : feminine or masculine plural... I don't know if i make it more clear or if that just confused you more... :crazyeye:

My post seems a bit long, but if you have any question, I'll be online all day, so... Also, ALL the files I sent are to be edited... GameText_Civilopedia_BuildingsProjects_TAM, the entry for Public Court is:

<TEXT>
<Tag>TXT_KEY_BUILDING_PUBLIC_COURT_PEDIA</Tag>
<English>[TAB]RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR </English>
<French>[TAB]RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR</French>
<German>[TAB]RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR</German>
<Italian>[TAB]RRRRRRRRRRRRRRR</Italian>
<Spanish>[TAB]RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR </Spanish>
<Russian>[TAB]RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR </Russian>
<Japanese>[TAB]RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR</Japanese>
<Chinese>[TAB]RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR </Chinese>
</TEXT>

I only need you to input the texts in spanish... Also, for the civiliopedia, onl do the ones that you would be totaly sure of... The main neccessities are mostly in the other file: ObjectInfo, as this one's entries ares the one used mostly in the game... the civiliopedia and the strategy are littles "extras" you know... so concentrate on GameTextInfo_Objects_TAM for now please... The other ones aren't urgent...

For the religion icons now...
Damn... I can't find the entries about the religions city icon... But I will find it... Oh yeah,,, I will find it :mad:

...

Are there any other bugs apart from this one? Keep reporting guys, it really helps!

Have a nice day!
