Yugoslav Civilization

[Anima Croatorum]

It is surely a dark day for pigs all across northern Croatia and Vojvodina.

Great mod!!!
But my game does not display the flag; there is just blank white space .
Any suggestions how to fix this?

 

[Mr_V]

Hmmm, I had that problem with mod "Serbia", that I solved by downloading later-updated flag DDS file by Lankou, and editing the XML to include it.

However, for "Yugoslavia" mod, the flag worked just fine for me

 

[srdjann]

lol , is anyone ever going to build enough cities to get to Dubrovnik?

Well, if you choose Huge with just two civs anything is possible

I wonder how the other countries that were under Yugoslavia feel about this (ie. Slovenia).... Yugoslavia never was a civilization , just a union of Slavic states (with Albanians).

I wouldn't say that the were under Yugoslavia. They were part of Yugoslavia.

And if you say that Yugoslavia never was a civilization you should say that for America too.

This would definitely be useful in a WWII mod, however.

Yap! Anybody willing to make one?

WWII in ex-Yugoslavia! Partisans as good guys against everybody else - Germans, Italians, Chetnics, Ustashas...

 

[srdjann]

Good work.

I bet he would be happy:

Maybe I could change that partisan button and place Bata instead?

 

[srdjann]

and i like to see my little town of kranj built faster than lots of others hehe
who would ofthought hehe

Well, I had to stick to the key - successive naming the cities from all Republics and Autonomuos provinces. At the end of course I ran out of cities so the only one remaining Republics were Serbia and Croatia...

and btw i would too give partisans less power than infantry while they were guerilla and add some sort of ambush or woods bonus.

Well, during the testing of this mod I concluded that +-2 doesn't mean much late in the game (for an example - in the beginning that would be 0.2 - almost totally irrelevant) so I decided to get that back to 20 in next version.

1 first strike will surely stay, and I think that I'll give them 1 extra promotion, like Woodsman 1 or Ambush. I'm still thinking about first one because late in the game there are not so many forests and jungle so it could be pretty useless (even though it would be more realistic ) and on the other hand Ambush promotion could make them too powerfull (with 1 first strike especially, so if I give them Ambush I'll lower their strenght to 18 for sure)... I'm still thinking (your suggestions are very welcome ) but now I'm closest to the combination 20, 1 first strike, Woodsman 1 or 18, 1 first strike, Woodsman 1, Ambush or maybe 18, 1 first strike, Guerilla, Ambush (this would be much usefull but maybe too powerfull? )

What do you (all) think?

Even thogh I disslike that slaughter of animals (I'm vegetarian) I totally respect 29th of November because in civilizational sense on 29th of November in 1945 Yugoslavia made one great step. We turned from monarchy to republic (every Civ1-3 player knows how much important that is ), women were (formaly) made equal with men, helath care and education systems were reachable to everybody...

That's why I feel very good on 29th of November and feel it like a real holiday (unfortunately it's not official anymore in Serbia and Montenegro )

I don't know, I experienced the same problem with some mods (Turks for an example)...

Maybe I'll include one or two more flags in future versions (with instruction how to change them) and that could lower the chance that such problem repeats...

I never figured out how to make a multi-color flagdecal that works. Its all about layers, but... why wont it work? why? In the end i made bi-color flagdecal (white and player color). Check the one in my Magyar mod, or the one LAnkou made for my Croatia mod.

 

[Arecibogk]

tifusari as the UU??
preko vode do slobode?
mirko i slavko as great artists?
mujo i haso as great entertainers?

well, decalc can't be multi-colored...

in a decalc you have two layers: the one of your primari color and the one of your secondary color

if you want multi-colored, you need to make the whole flag with an alpha channel black. Then, in the artcivilisations xml files, put whiteflag on 1 instead of 0

HIH

 

[Mr_V]

Hmmm, I downloaded the 1.01 mod and now I suffer the same problem - the flag doesn't exist any more it is just - white. Looks like a potkoshulja hung out to dry

I checked the DDS file path, and it is correctly referenced in the XML file. Any ideas, anyone?

 

[srdjann]

Hmmm, I'm not sure what is happening because in my 1.01 version flag is just like it has to be (for sceptics - read the first post and you'll see screenshot with new partisan skin and with the flag which means that it works with me)

The changes that were made from 1.00 to 1.01 didn't involve the flag. File FlagDECAL_Yugoslavia.dds is same in both versions (made on 28th of November in 1:07AM) and I checked CIV4ArtDefines_Civilization.xml file where WhiteFlag value is 1 (like LAnkou said it has to be - <bWhiteFlag>1</bWhiteFlag> if you want multicolor flag)

Anyway, I am planning to release 1.02 version soon and until that here is link to 1.00 version for those of you who can't wait (because maybe even then the flag will not work for unknown reasons and it did work with 1.00 version)

 

[srdjann]

Maybe it's something again on the relation game-patch-grafic card? Can all of you who can not see the flag please tell me which grafic card you have? On my GeForce2 mx 400 (with 64Mb) it works just fine (even though the game said that it is below minimum requirements), maybe it's ATI again...

 

[CorSaiR]

It is not ATI again , I have geforce 6600gt 128mb with the latest drivers.

...and again I cannot see the flag .

 

[Mr_V]

Tried 1.00? That one worked fine for me.

 

[srdjann]

...and again I cannot see the flag .

OK, then maybe we should try this.

Please find any mod which works normal for you (Mr_V do the same if not's a problem ) find FlagDECAL.dds file of that mod and send it to me (schef76@yahoo.co.uk). Please find mod with multicolor flag, not bicolor!!! I'll try to modify that one into Yugoslav flag, I'll send it back to you and then you'll let me know if it works.

Ok?
