Turn off the flames

[Zongo]

Hi all,

is there a way to turn the burning sand flames off, and only those flames? Or even better to swap the animation for something less invasive and more realistic, like smaller flames which are not always identical to one another?

Thanks.

...I'm not sure of what are you asking, here...Is it a on-play strategy question or a deeper graphical one??

If it's the first, you just use spring or sanctify in nearby territories, for a temporary effect.

If it's the second, I don't know!!

you can go to the CIV4EffectInfos.xml and search for the effect and simple decrease the scale. i don't know what the name of the effect is though

There was a trick in a thread in the forums.

Basically, change the Flames effect to the Nuclear Fallout nif (can't remember the name, will be in the same file however) and reduce the size of the feature from 30 to 1. You should be able to find what field does what via reading the XML.

I can post a tutorial later tonight if you can't work it out (just got to work).

best thing would be using the fire elemental graphics which also looks good but doesn't fry your crappy GPU. I know I hate those flames.

Thanks for all suggestions. I will give a try to either the fire elemental or the nuclear (nookilar) fallout. If I die trying, I'll obviously beg for mercy again
