Womoks Terrain Graphics

[haegint]

san,
was this the very first game you played with Civ3? Because at the start of a game, you see nothing of the map. In the course of the game, you need to discover the world around you and/or trade maps with the other civs.

I don't know if this helps you... But otherwise it looks as if you installed the terrain files correctly.

Thanks for replying.

No it is not the first time i have played the game and i know what you are talking about. I loaded an earlier game that i had played and found the problem cropping up, anyway i just copied and pasted the files on the original and they work fine now. The game works with the new terrain graphics.

Thanks

San

I love this terrain One think I don't like is how the snow-capped mountains have a green base when they are in tundra

 

[Bleser]

Will this wonderful terrain ever get update with the C3C content? Can this terrain (in its current form) be used with C3C?

Thanks!

I think that all that would need to change is the volcanoe and marsh tiles.

So would downloading and installing the current tileset "screw up" C3C?

 

[Ankka]

It can't b used unless it's updated AFAIK.

 

[warpstorm]

The marsh and volcanoes wouldn't match in style. In addition, if Womok's changed things like the resources or buildings (I haven't used it in a while and don't have it on this computer to check) they would also need to be changed/removed. But it should work.

I'll try do a c3c version, but dont expect much, Im not used to edit terrain graphics.

 

[Bleser]

What happend to Womok? Does he no longer make mods for Civ3?

 

[Yoda Power]

I decided only to do the volcanos, someone else will have to do Marches.

Bleser-Womoks left a long time ago.

 

[warpstorm]

He hasn't been around for about 2 years. It's a shame, as his terrain has a lot of potential.

 

[zulu9812]

His units had a helluva lot of potential too...

@Zulu: what unit? I looked in Unit Graphics, with thread starter W[anything], and only got Wyrmshadow, Warmaster, and W.i.n.t.e.r. Whoever makes the C3C version: make a greener version too.

I don't think he finished any units, but I could be wrong. I wasn't around back then. However, I've seen Kal-el requesting for someone to do a unit based on womoks' modern soldier design that arguably did look very nice.

 

[Yoda Power]

Womoks never finshed any units, but he made some previews and they were amazing.

 

[haegint]

I agree Womoks is a real loss to the Civ3 community. As far as I know (read it here or elsewhere) he is a French guy and a professional comic strip illustrator. If I remember correctly he left to pursue work on other games he probably liked better than Civ, unfortunately.

 

[Bleser]

So who has the ability to make this terrain set C3C - compatible?

I would even pay for this wonderful terrain set! I would attempt modding it myself, but I have little time and NO idea how to make these kind of mods (I am a software engineer; I limit my mods to this and other games to code changes ).

Who volunteers to do the marshes? Sorry to be a real pester about this, but I just think it is much more realistic than any other terrain mod out there!

btw im still gonna finish the vulcanos, when I get time to do it.
