The Tech trees:




This is Version 3.00 of the WW2 MOD

DOWNLOAD THE UNITS TOO: UNITS.zip (1.5 Mb)
Or here Units.zip(Same file) (1.5 Mb)



Leaderheads can be downloaded here: Leaderheads

 

[rapid]

Kurt Schuschnigg must be the Austrian lesder. He was the last prime minister before Hitler annected Austria.

 

[kring]

I would love to see a WW2 scenario, like in Civ2. This is one of my most read periods.

 

[JoseM]

Leader of Japan "Emperor HIROITO" and leader of Great Britain "Churchill" ...

I need help, i downloaded ur zip, i saved the scenario in the scenario place but where do i save the unique units folders?

Also can u do something to eliminate global warming? its really annoying when the terrain messes up because of the global warming, also i agree with kring, in civ2 they had a WW2 scenario it was really great, i spent 2 years playing the same scenario but with different civs... if u make something like that it will be great.

 

[JoseM]

Also i wanna say that u should make the soviet tanks stronger than the italian tanks... remember that italian tanks sucked

 

[Grey Fox]

I will make Sweden and Switzerland one Civ, a Neutral CIv instead.

And I think I will also add Communist China and Nationalist China.
So can someone tell me whicg will get which cities?
(As I can't make any straigtforward Scenario, I have to make it a Mod were you play from 4000BC right now)

And might also add:
- Ireland
- Iran
- Yoguslavia
- North Africa (OR should I split them up, or only use Egypt?)
- India (were they such a big part of the war?)
- Which should I add more?

Leadernames
Spain = Franco
Great Britain = Churchill (Why did I miss that)
Japan = Hirohito (I already had that, in fact...)
France = De Gualle
Austria = Kurt Schushnigg


And I also have some questions to kring, who I hope will help me a lot on this Modification!

- What do you mean by Commonwealth? (Canada and ???)
- Do you think I should have more then one Unique Unit for every civ? (then one special that triggers the golden age maybe)

Does anyone know if I can move cities with the save-game editor?

Can I change the year, give civs techs, give them cities, units. Change wich civs they are at war with, change wich they are Gracious, Furious with?

If I can do that with the save-game editor, then I might be able to do a scenario.


And why I made the Soviet Tank bad, was becuase I wanted it to be cheap so I had to lower it's attack point (But since it's a UU that might not be necesary?), Cheap because they had a lot of tanks during the war.

And Yes I know that the Italian tanks suck during the WW2, but I had to made them different then the other tanks.

More Feedback please.

And you extract the unit folders into CIVILIZATION III\Art\Units\

Sorry to not have mentioned this before... I will add that information to the first post.

 

[Schee]

French Leader : De Gaulle (or Général De Gaulle)
And... I don't think that French musketeers would be very usefull in WW2 ... French UU should be something like Resistant (4-6-1) with "all terrain as road" ability

Yes I know, all that is to be changed in version 1.5 of the Mod.

All out there who are about to download, please wait as the Version 1.5 of the Mod will come very, very soon! (Minutes)

 

[Grey Fox]

Version 1.5 Is now released!

You can find it in the first post.

EVERYONE WHO HAS DOWNLOADED VERSION 1.0, YOU ARE IN RISK OF CRASHES EACH TIME YOU PLAY THAT VERSION!
PLEASE DOWNLOAD THE MOST RECENT VERSION!

Thanks to everyone who helped with the changes!
(Now I'm just gonna edit the first post to...)

 

[Ed O'War]

I don't mean to be nick-picky but the UU for the United States really should be the Marine. There were no Navy Seals during WWII. Also, no other nation had a force quite like the U.S. Marines. Sure, they had forces that were called marines, but they weren't really trained for amphibious assaults (like U.S. Marines) as much as they were trained to serve as troops aboard ships.

This looks like a very ambitious mod...keep up the good work!

Yep I know, but I called them Navy Seals 'cus there are already a unit called Marines.

 

[Grey Fox]

A little sneack preview at the future of the WW2 mod.


The Tech Tree is currently under heavy re-construction, when complete the game will start in the pre-industry / Industry age, and stay in that during the whole game.

That means MANY new techs and MANY new Units. (Every Civ might have about 5 different Tanks)

And I might Cripple some civs. Like Poland, and the Neutrals. I might make it so that the Neutrals can't produce Naval, Air and Offensive units... etc.

 

[Grey Fox]

Seems like their is an error in version 1.5.

Haven't anyone here noticed that you can't build cities?

Is it just my .bic file that is wrong?


Well anyway, I have updated to version 1.51... Check out the first post to download it.

 

[roalan]

Sweden was NOT nuetral they supplied Germany with ore.

 

[roalan]

Britain would be better with the fighter as a UU their BB's were not that good Germany and the US had better ones.Most liokely the Japaneese had better ones also. Britains were WW1 issue for the most part.

 

[titansfan216]

I started the mod like this..

Americans, Huge Map, Chieftain, patch v1.17

Only got through building Washington, setting to build warrior, moved scout, moved worker. Then the game crashed seemingly when it was on the AI's turn. If anyone can help that would be great cause i'm so anxious to try out this mod!

I don't really know what the problem can be...

Which version are you playing?

It could be that some of the colors are not allowed and the AI, has a color that is not allowed by the game... therefor it crashes.

I'll look into it.

I'm currently working on version 2.0 and I am having great troubles on that version. But if I can get that version to work everyone can play and everyone should be glad...

Off to debug!

 

[titansfan216]

was playing version 1.51...that is the newest version right?

 

[Grey Fox]

Now I have fixed all bugs I'm currently aware of.

This version should be playable, at least it was when I tested it.


VERSION 1.75 is here!

Check out post 1 to Download.

 

[titansfan216]

tried it again. same exact thing! have no idea what caused this. maybe its because the actual scenario file is still named "naziMod V.1.51"?
