Cool idea with the random great people.

 

[Arian]

Cool idea with the random great people.

I like it too. Very nice

BTW I'll make a more suitable movie for it, with this building:



It's confucian, replace FaMensi...

 

[Kao'chai]

asian palace model + fa men si movie + temple of heaven button

great job on the python and xml though

Tsentom did the coding work (1/4)
I can make a movie and a corresponding button (2/4)
If you could provide the correct model (1/4)

then 1/4 + 2/4 +1/4 = 4/4 = 1 = one completed excellent ModComp

Thanks everyone

I know its Confucian with a Buddhist movie and a Tao button.

If any of you can/would make better graphics I would be more than appreciative and update everything.

I know at the moment it's kinda a bastard child of the forums, but I have no skill with my own art :/

In fact, in my new version of my mod I use the code for a different wonder, it's just well if you make a wonder involving unit upgrades you make Leonardo's Workshop (which Gir made a great one). Since there was already a 'wonder' in a Civ game that gives random great people, figured I was kinda obligated to give it a go.

The point is for someone to use the code if they want, you can apply it to any wonder. (I'll update this to use a customeevent manager as soon as i work out the bugs when doing so with the random number function - which might actually just be my doing).

At the moment, it's more The School of Eastern Philosophy

Hey Tsentom,

Here's the movie and the button: link

Button:


Hope you like it. I'm looking forward for more of your stuff!

I can't make models but you could ask HROCHLAND. AFAIK he takes on requests.

 

[tsentom1]

Updated it with Arian's new Wonder Movie and Button Art

THANKS!!!

 

[Donkey Puncher]

Are you going to put this in your thomas'war mod . I t would be a great addition to your awsome mod

 

[tsentom1]

Yeah, It'll go in the next version. Actually, this was supposed to be in before I released it. I'm still working on thing's that didn't make the final cut when I released it early (due to a busy schedule at the moment)

 

[Edgecrusher]

I like the functionality of the wonder as well (the free great people).

This seems to be a refering question whenever new python functionality is released, but does this provide the txt in the Civopedia (the box on the left), where all the "abilities are listed"?

 

[ripple01]

no, but it is not too difficult to mod the sdk and add a text tag in the space you describe

cheers,
ripple01

 

[tsentom1]

Actually it does, and in my new mod I added the box on left / icon hover over descriptions for all my python based things.

There's already a text tag in the games default SDK that was added with BTS that for some reason few people here seem to know about:

<Strategy>TXT_KEY_PALACE_CHINA_STRATEGY</Strategy>
<Help>TXT_KEY_SCHOOL_HELP</Help>
<Advisor>NONE</Advisor>

Simply, add the <Help> tag after strategy and you can place whatever text you want in any building / units descriptions. Make sure to include [Icon_Bullet] at the beginning of your new txt to make the description aesthetically fit.

Hope this helps.

Added the Sphinx Wonder, see the download page for details.

Sphinx

A small way anyone can help:

The model I've used is the common one here with the Sphinx on top of an Egyptian temple. Now I've see a version of this model with the Sphinx alone (no temple) but can't seem to find it again. Does anyone have or know where I can find this model? For now I simply edited the height of the nif file, but this is a sloppy fix and causes visual problems when on a hill





Sometimes its really bad and just looks odd. I know it's a minor thing but any help would be appreciated!!

 

[Edgecrusher]

Sphinx

THis is the Sphinx by White Rabbit, inside the Zip is 2 NIF Files

Sphinx and Sphinx_only

The Sphinx_only.nif is just the "top part" i.e. the Sphinx (without the Temple)

Hope this helps.

 

[Chuggi]

I think you can fix the sphinx by making the base a lot taller, but then it could look a bit strange on regular plains (i.e. tall base).

EDIT: There's probably a proper way to do it, but I don't know how to. :/ Maybe it's in the xml?

 

[tsentom1]

Wow! Thanks a lot! I looked everywhere for that model.

 

[Edgecrusher]

NP, I am fan of your work, (one reason I follow your posts), so any way I can help.

 

[tsentom1]

Another one:



I'm not a 100% satisfied with the art. There wasn't really anything available so I edited the 'Spinner' unit made by Woodelf. If anyone knows of any model that looks more Tesla like - maybe in some mod - let me know, but for now I think it's a good stand in.

Also the movie is only a still image - as that's the most I know how to do. If anyone has some free time and willing to make a Tesla based movie let me know and I'll add it / credit you.

Also, I changed the School of Confucius building art. It's from the palace files in the Ethnic Citystyle set by GeoModder. I'm not sure if he made all of them himself though.

 

[Arian]

I can make a movie if you like but I need stuff/footage to work with. Do you happen to have links to pictures?
