UITexture.fpk reveals a lot....

[ShahJahanII]

Yeah, and the unknown naval unit reminds me of the Carrack - was Portugal intended to be in the game originally?

That is a possiblity.

 

[Putmalk]

I think this is another alternate icon, this time for the market

Hey, do you the know what atlas this is included in? And it's portrait index?

(0-7 would be row 1, 8-15 would be row 2)

I'd like to use this icon for my Ancient World mod.

 

[Pouakai]

It's in the building atlas, index no. 17 (One after the market)

Thanks, Pouakai!

 

[HammerandSickle]

That's amazing!!! I can't believe why they did not include them in.

(the scientist looks like Mark Twain...)

 

[Louis XXIV]

This one, however, has left me stumped. What building is this for?

Maybe some kind of Customs Post (what was the specific name in Civ4?). A commerce building for coastal cities.

Next up we have the Units atlas. There are two new units here, both naval (Although one is simply a black icon with a name)

I'm thinking this could be a Carrack, reminds me somewhat of the one in Civ 4.

Looks like a Carrack. Quite odd, though. Seems hard to fit in.

 

[sukritact]

This one, however, has left me stumped. What building is this for?

Probably a customs house, something related to international trade.

Now, we're into two technology icons. I think they are Publishing and Calculus, although in what order I am not sure. They could also be alternate icons for Writing.

I doubt they're for publishing or calculus, alternate icons for writing seems much more likely. I'd like to try making a publishing icon based on the first icon though.

No prizes for guessing this one...

I think it's for a Godzilla to fight against GDRs, am I right?

Now, we have modern icons for the Worker and Great People

The modern worker looks horrible! I'm glad it doesn't change with the ages, i wish the icons for the GPs did change though, they look brilliant.

Also, has anyone one been able to extract icons properly from anything starting from the Denmark dlc? The file from Cuc doesn't extract anything after polynesia, which is too bad since the Phalanx icon from the ancient wonders scenario is perfect for replacing the levy icon in VEM.

 

[Pouakai]

Yeah, I have, used the tool mentioned earlier after using Nexus to extract them.

 

[CivOasis]

Pouakai, how would I use the "carrack" icon in a mod? (Looking at it as a potential warship icon for the Hawai'i scenario)

 

[CivOasis]

Another question: We've all seen that there is artwork lost in the files, what about ather unused materials? I.E., lost units, NWs?

 

[Pouakai]

Add the below into the unit entry for the unit which will use the Carrack, instead of the standard icon path for your mod:

<IconAtlas>UNIT_ATLAS_2</IconAtlas>
<PortraitIndex>19</PortraitIndex>

As for the models, quite possibly. We have seen a pre-release screenshot of Mount Everest, so I wouldn't be suprised. At the moment however I don't feel that confident in my capabilities to risk my game files to try and hunt them down.

 

[Pouakai]

Okay, scratch that. I took a look inside the common folder of resources, and what should pop up?

feature_cerro_de_potosi.fxsxml
feature_everest.fxsxml
feature_fuji.fxsxml
[...]
feature_reef.fxsxml
feature_titicaca.fxsxml
feature_volcano.fxsxml

So, it appears there are in fact models for Lake Titicaca and Mount Everest. Now, I shall try to get them ingame.

Is there an icon for mount Everest, i'd love to see it ingame as a natural wonder.

 

[Pouakai]

Not as far as I can see, I'll just double check though. (Hint)

Seems that the wonders are lacking the files found in assets > terrain > pieces, which are mainly .dds files (Hint 2)

 

[Valbuena]

I seriously think the alternate designs for the great people and the advisors were supposed to be in the game, but they hurried it up and forgot about them...

I too, would like to use the Carrack and Customs House icons for my East Indies Scenario as seen in my signature.
I am working on it with eazyseeker and we have made progress.

 

[Menzies]

I think I remember seeing an image of the extra natural wonders... I'll see if I can hunt it down.

Here it is, from here.

The image there might have been inspired by a mix of:

and:

 

[snipperrabbit!!]

And, here we go with pics. First of all, the buildings:

This one is an alternate icon for the factory, already widely known-of.

I think this is another alternate icon, this time for the market

Finally one I can be certain of, the Supermarket. Not grouped with Unique Buildings.

This one, however, has left me stumped. What building is this for?

[snipperrabbit!!]

you're right for dublin, maybe I've mistaken the cupola (seen in paintings) and didn't try for more accurate proof.
