Fairline, Sarsstock, many others...

I will be giving it a go and I would like to have a copy of your modgen file. Thanks!

[civ2units]

Yep, they're very easy to install now - it's a single exe with nothing else needed. If you do get the IDF one, I have a modgen file with my icons in it, if you don't mind single view sprites rather than multi view. Let me know if you want it.

Is there any chance to see these icons here in the forum?

Sorry, I've been gone for a bit here. I've been very busy on RL things, and have become distracted by TheorySpark's turn-based election simulators and making scenarios for that. I recall last I tried working on my Korean War scenario, I wanted to punch a hole in my monitor. I should get around to trying again, in all honesty.

As for Sarsstock, I talked to him briefly on MSN recently, and he seems VERY busy looking for a job and arranging house and home.

Nice to see all you guys are still here after all this time.

I used to play a ton of Panzer General back in the day, these People General's links seem amazing, am downloading right now - Thanks for the info!

[GhostOfDisco]

The People's General page fairline linked to points to a free download of the entire game. Is that legal?
I've been working on a Battlefield 2 map for the past while, and went on a trip recently, but I haven't forgotten about Civ 2! In fact, I did a little bit of work fineagling Sobieski (given today's the anniversary of the Battle of Vienna, I thought I should do something to honor it...) and do hope to get it done by Christmas or so. (No promises, though!)

On a similar note, I got a new computer, and I am pleased to note that the SpriteGen "bar hiding" still keeps the ToT bar hidden even when my motior is set to 1920 x 1080!

Why, are you a cop?

Then you must have very high unit icons. As icon height increases, units will remain visible at fewer zoom levels.

[GhostOfDisco]

Nope, just someone who wants to not break the law. I was once fined over $100 for jaywalking - I've learned my lesson!

[fairline]

Strictly speaking, I suppose they didn't get permission from whoever owns SSI these days to significantly modify and repackage the game. I think it would be a little silly to regard it as illegal though. PeG-WW2 has been touted for years on reputable websites like the Wargamer, and I'm sure they are careful about breach of copyright. To put things in perspective, the original game was less than 100 Meg, whereas the modified PeGs are 1 gig.

Robert is very careful to state that anyone using the modified games should have a legit CD of the original, which can still be bought second-hand if you're that concerned.

I'll post it to a file sharer when I've finished the Egyptian infantry I'm working on. It'll still be a wip though!

Already can - I posted some of the IDF icons in the modern gfx thread.

[civ2units]

Oh, I didn´t know that you already posted them here

[DarthVeda]

I actually broke my rule and installed Civ2 for a brief while to help a friend get it installed while she was on maternity leave and needed a civ2 fix.

Also, hi!

[Harry Tuttle]

Rules are meant to be broken. Hello old one.
