Turkish MOD - Turks as a playable civilization

[Alptegin]

Tunch, Shqype, and CivArmy, Salam and thanks for your turkish and chechen mods.

I appreciate the hard work you guys have put into it.

Please let me know if I can help in anyway. I still trying to learn how to do art and programming, but I can help with history and research if needed.

 

[Shqype]

All I could use for the Chechen mod is Order and Select sounds in the actual Chechen language ... and perhaps custom diplomacy text for Djovkhar Dudaev and Aslan Maskhadov.

Thanks for the kind words, there's no need for help on my part right now until they release the next level modding tools. Always good to hear people are enjoying playing them as much as we enjoy modding.

Beware! There is a way, but it's very long, dark and treacherous. There have been some other fine young adventurers who have walked the path before you, but none of them have returned. They have either failed, or succeded and got so addicted that they choose to stay there. ***It's cursed. Are you sure you want to take your chance? This is your final warning. Send me a pm if you want the directions.

Could you add the turkish national music, so its heard when playing a little bit more zoomed out?
Its rather irritating to hear a non turkish music while playing the turks like this in normal play.

Also could you rename the leader "Mehmet II" to its original name?
I think its like "Fatih Sultan Mehmet"

Oh and i kinda miss the turkish hats on the units also (FEZ)
And plz plz Add "Kayseri" in the city names (my hometown lol)

I just LOVE to play turks ehehe

Hello TriMoon,

Kayseri is already on the list. It seems as if you need to build more cities to reach Kayseri.

There's no way I can skin a unit to make it appear like a fez with the current edition. With the release of the next mod, us modders will have a better chance at improving unit graphics.

I would have to change a lot of settings to make the Turkish music appear while zoomed out, and that would interfere with the original game music. You can always copy the Turkish ones i've included to your playlist and listen while playing.

Mehmet II is the original name of the Turkish leader. Sultan is one of the titles he uses and Fatih (the Conqueror) is the nickname he earned after the conquest of Constantinople. He also used other titles such as Roman Casear (Rum Kayseri) meaning Roman Emperor after the death of the last Roman Emperor Constantine XI during the fall of Constantinople.

This looks perfect if we have a CivArmy LH!

CivArmy has his own Turkish Mod with his nicely done LH graphics. Since they are both still images at this point, I prefer the original paintings of the leaders which add to the ancient feeling. However, this is plainly personal and I am sure CivArmy would be happy if you used his LH's. You can download both mods and change the LH graphics according to your own taste.

Muhteşem bir mod için teşekkür ederim!

I was distraught with the lack of a Turkish Civ on Civ4 and I'm proud a fellow Turk has risen to the challenge of creating a Turkish Mod. I'm about to download the Mod and I'll let you know what I think of it (I'll only be able to play it tomorrow, I need some shut eye at the moment). Keep up the good work!

 

[MemZ]

Kemal Sunal? LOL........

Annoyed me a bit...but I guess it's hard to find suitable Turkish sounds......

Laughed a lot though......(contradiction......I experienced it so what's the problem....)

 

[MemZ]

HOWEVER....I thoroughly enjoyed everything else and I hope the development of this MOD is continuing.....

About the Ottoman and Turk discussion.....

Yes, the Ottoman Empire is similar in concept to the (xxx) Dynasty concept you have in ancient Egypt and then in China.....they were Egyptians and Chineese then as the Turks were always Turks (you can check Dedem Korkut Hikayeleri (not sure what it's called in English) which is about myths and legends of Turks in tribal times "before" the Ottoman Empire). Although the Turkish Republic is a continuation of the Ottoman Empire there is a slight diffrence in the cultural and religious values(in theory).

The Turks are a "totally" different culture from Arabs and should never be confused.

Well done to the work on the MOD......Will there be more? (No more Kemal Sunal.....pleeeaaase!)

 

[narcemdead]

What a great idea. Lived and worked in Istanbul for 4 years. great time! Cok tessekurler!

 

[Tunch Khan]

Ince yorumlariniz icin ben tesekkur ederim - Thanks for all the nice comments and I'm glad you are enjoying the game. About Kemal Sunal; it's not that you are hearing his comment all the time, it's supposed to be an Easter Egg kinda thing compared to all the other voice overs and some players find it hilarious (as you have admitted). But that's enough flavor for one humble mod.

Thanks, my brother Tuncer. You you did really good job. I've just downloded your mod. Thanks again for your sharing .
