The Wheel of Time - C3C FULL mod

[CamJH]

Sounds good.
How 'bout somehting like this:

Head of Project
- compiles and releases final product, final say

Assistant Head / Staff Manager
- helps guide final decisions, guides task groups

Graphics Team

Tech Team

Improvements & Wonders Team

Unit Team

Research & Entry Team

Did I miss anything? I think those should cover it.
Anyone can sign up for whichever position(s) they like.

Alerum,
You're the guy who started the thread, what'ya think?

I'd gladly head up the Unit Team since I've already invested quite a bit into it. I could also help out with the Research & Entry Team since I also have all my books on my computer for easy searching. I'd even consider Assistant Head if no one else vies for the position. I'll leave it at that for now, and see what you all think about it.

 

[alerum68]

Sounds good to me. I'm all for it, as long as we can fill the slots. Cam, you've done the most with the project... How about you make the choices on who's who. AIM me with some ideas first though.

 

[Saturn6]

Got my seal of approval cam. Drawn up very nicely. Just one clearification: What's the diffeernece between research and entry, and tech? I just want to make sure what each one is.

Also, I recomend Alerum as head. I don't think anyone disagrees with that...Am I right? And cam, if you want to be freed up for units(because you're very good at that), I could fill the role of staff mananger/assistant.

 

[Tzar Sasha]

I'll gladly join in where I can. Maybe general graphics, but not units. No team leader positions though. I can't promise much time as things are very hectic right now with a recent move and all....

 

[CamJH]

For Research and Entry, I was referring to a group whose job it would be to research through the source materials for information and also handle pedia entries. With Techs, I was referring specifically to the tech trees.

I'll second Alerum as the Project Head if he wants the position. And Saturn6, you're more than welcome to the Assistant/Staff Manager position. I wouldn't have minded filling the position, but this'll free me up to focus my efforts on units... which I really need to get back to doing again.

 

[tjedge1]

I wish I could be more help. I'll join the Research & Entry team, but I won't be much help till my mod is done (hopefully May). After that, I might have some free time, but I'm going back to school, so that might not be so. I'll join, but I can't lead it.

 

[CamJH]

Allright, so this is what we're looking at so far:
Head of Project:
Alerum68

Assistant Head / Staff Manager:
Saturn6

Graphics Team:
-Tzar Sasha

Tech Team:
-Noldodan

Improvements & Wonders Team:

Unit Team:
*CamJH

Research & Entry Team:
-tjedge1
-Noldodan

*denotes team leader

Hopefully some of the other regulars will see this and help fill in the rest of the gaps. And like I mentioned earlier, I have no problems helping with research and entry.

 

[Noldodan]

I can do research and entries, and you could probably twist my arm into the tech team.

 

[CamJH]

:twist:
You had to have seen that coming Noldodan. Plus now that LOTM is reaching its final stages, you're going to need something else to fill in the time.

I'll edit my post above to include you in it.

 

[CamJH]

I've completed about half of the Wise One flics, so barring any hassles I should have her posted sometime this week.

 

[Tzar Sasha]

Does anybody have a source of pics for the leaderheads?
Has it been settled who will be the leaderhead of each country?
I know that in the series some rulers did not rule very long. The big question is: What is the timespan of the game? Will leaderheads be pulled from the past or only from the current book series?

These are questions that need to be addressed and fully answered before work on leaderhead graphics of any type are done.

I think I read in another post that the game would encompass the time since the breaking. Thus giving the civs a chance to grow. Of course there can always be a scenario where the civs are in their "at the beginning of the series" state. If some civs like the borderlanders are lumped together for reasons of play, who will the leader be? Or will the leader change with each era?

Would you rather drop having a person image and use a flag instead? That maybe easiest if someone had the flag graphics or could point me in the right direction.

 

[tjedge1]

I can probably get the flag graphix, but it might take a little while. They are in a book I have, and I could get them scanned and then upload. I'll try to do that, unless someone beats me to it.

 

[CamJH]

I have The World of the Wheel of Time on my computer which has flags for 16 or 17 civs, but you have to factor in that 4 of them are borderland flags, and there's also Amadicia vs. Children of the Light, etc. I can put them together in a zip if you like, and post them here for you.

 

[tjedge1]

That's the same book I have, so i would be easier for you. Was there only that many? I thought there were more. I haven't picked that series up in a while.

 

[CamJH]

Yeah I just checked... 17.
Anyways, here you go:

Download WoT Flags

 

[Tzar Sasha]

I'll do what I can with all the flags provided. The choice in which ones to use can be made later. I don't mind a little extra work when we aren't sure which ones will ultimately be used. Sometimes it's good to have more than what you need. Others might want to make specific scenarios with the flags not used in the main mod...

 

[Tzar Sasha]

Check out the attached image. It's a sample of what I was thinking of doing for the foriegn advisors screen. Let me know what you think. If you want to see how it looks in game it goes into the ..\art\advisors folder within the scenario.

 

[Mezzomaniac]

Hi all

First of all I'd like to say that you guys are awesome. I only got Civ3 a few months ago and when I got the idea of and searched for a WoT mod and discovered this, I was very impressed. Civ3 and WoT are two of my fvourite past-times and you have my hearty support the whole way.

I don't have much time, ability or experience to help out in any significant way, but I'm happy to do something like proof reading of the civilopedia (obviously further down the track).

 

[Noldodan]

I'm the tech team, eh? I'll get cracking on that next week; I'll be busy the next three days.

 

[CamJH]

Well you're the only person so far to volunteer for the job, so unless other people join the team... guess you are the team.

And nice job with the flags Sasha. I'll have to squeeze in some time if I can to try it out in game.

Glad you found us Mezzomaniac. It's always nice to have new people drop in. Reminds me that it's not just a handful of us that are interested in this mod.
