MOD: Civilization Name Lists

[darkangel]

I decided to enhance the civilization name lists as I found the default too sparse for huge maps – standard for that matter. I really get sick of seeing “new” and 1,2,3 – etc… for city names.

I did Japan first because I happen to know a lot about the country and could do so rather quickly.

I will do some research for the rest of the civilizations as time permits. If folks are interested in helping by doing some of the other civilizations please let me know, as it will save me the time and effort.

My goal is at least 100 city and 10 leader names each.

Sorry folks, I edited my first post and the link to the file was lost. So hear it is.

This file has all but the final 3 civs. I'll try to get the rest done soon.

You could save some time and duplication of effort by checking out Sevorak's mod in the Civ3-Files section (where this thread probably belongs, BTW).

The thread containing the mod is called "More City Names" and was bumped recently, so it shouldn't be hard to find.

[darkangel]

Thanks Ill check it out!

You might want to look at my mod posted here (city, leader edits and Canada civ)

You may not want the Canada civ, but the rest of the city/leader info in the *.bic file may be of use. I'll gladly assist with the Zulu and Russians, if you like.

Thanks for the offer! I will check out your files. I have also been in contact with the guy who did another name list. He has about 40 city names for each and a few for the leaders. I will also be incorporating his info as well. We are working together on a mod project now. I would like it if you would be interested in joining us.

I just finished the Roman and Greek civs. I will put all of them in one zip file for download.

You are saying that as though he should have put this thread in there himself. In case you dont know, we cant post directly in the Files forum, we have to post here, and let the mods move it into the files forum themselves.

darkangel,

Do you have an email I can contact? Let me know what you'd like me to do and I'll give you a hand. Breaking up the civs between a few people should make it easy.

I'd also recommend using scientists and artists in addition to military figures (makes sense when finishing wonders)

[darkangel]

I'm already using scientists and political leaders as well as military. I will message you with my email. Otherwise the link to Vex's board is:

Thanks for the information, Skanky. Obviously I haven't tried to upload any files.

Dont worry it did not bother me - I figured it was something like being a virgin!

I could offer some German city names. I've put 50 in the attachment. These are the German city names. If you need the English ones, please write. It will take some time to translate them and I'm not able to translate them all.

[darkangel]

All civs are done excpt the following:

Babylon, Zulu, Iroquois

[wyz_sub10]

Here is the Zulu list.

I can do the Iroquois, but not until Boxing Day.

There are many Zulu sites from the high period, but most are cities from the present day areas of South Africa, Botswana and Zimbabwe.

The leaders are all military figures from the Zulu Wars period.

I would like to suggest, dakangel, than we prioritize the city list. I know it's a lot of work, but it would be more accurate.

Thoughts?
