[XML+GRAPHICS MODCOMP] Era-Specific Fishing Boats

[GeoModder]

Is it possible to make the Industrial age look less like 1950 and more like 1800?

That's mostly a thing for the cityset department, and the 1800's still looked alot like the Renaissance in building style.

Well, I've managed to create medieval-specific boats and also Asian boats (but I can't get the Asian ones to appear for only Asian civs, oh well). Now I've got a question before I upload: for the Industrial age, should I use the current "modern" boats or the current "medieval" boats? I think the medieval ones are a better fit, but if someone could find some kind of steamship that would be best.

 

[GeoModder]

I think GeneralMatt made a paddlewheeler. Is that 19th century enough to you?

 

[sepamu92]

Updated first post with medieval and industrial boats. Thanks to GeneralMatt for the paddlewheeler boat

Is it possible to use only the modern fishing boats and make them a default part of the game?

 

[GeoModder]

Yes. Edit out the graphic references to earlier-era fishing boats and the era's themself in the Civ4PlotLSystem.xml file, and put this file then in your BtS Assets folder (in the same folder you found it in the mod).
Btw, the last step is not recommended without backing up the original BtS file if you don't want the chance to be permanently without a reinstall.

Is it possible to reduce the scale of the boats? I don't like the size of the ancient and medieval fishing boats, which are as large or larger than the workboats.

 

[Zuul]

Yes it's easy to change scale on units. Open up some file and change a number . Can't remember which.

 

[frekk]

If these were just units it would be easy.

Yes, I know. I tried to implement parts of your mod in CCV in the afternoon. And I hoped to find out what parts of your mod belong to the ships.

Oh, simple. Do a search for "waterworked" and you'll bump in the entries. IIRC it's spread over two parts of the file.

That, and the boat art in the improvements folder of course.
