MOD: Names2 mod

[Sevorak]

It's good to see that someone's improving on my foundation, especially since my other modding concerns have drained away any time I might have had to update my old City Names mod. Excellent work, C Chulainn.

Can't seem to download any files, using Windows XP. The all show up as files named "attachment" and Winzip does not recognize them as zip files.

You downloaded a zip file--it just needs to be renamed appropriately with a .zip extension so WinZip will open it.

Names2 mod and patch!

Since this mod uses civ3mod.bic, and patch 1.17f overwrites it, am I sacrificing any fixes to revert to C Chulainn's/Sevorak's excellent offering?

If so, could we humbly ask C Chulainn to remake the .bic file from the new patch?

Names in the 117f patch

Using two instances of the editor, I copied all the names from the excellent names2.bic to a base civ3mod.bic file that came from the patch.

as an aside, I noticed that the Iriquious had become less aggressive in the new patch. To the left of the list of names in the editor is the slider to set this if you want them back the way they were.

for the japanese your mod lists

Kyoto
Osaka
Tokyo
Edo

but isn't edo the ancient name for tokyo? are you still working on this mod?

[C Chulainn]

Yes, Edo is the old name for Tokyo... I wasn't particularly bothered about this, but as someone has complained, it's been taken out and replaced.
Here is the new version which will work with the latest patch.
Additionally, it has the following which wasn't in Names2:
-Duplication of the Babylonian city name "Ebla" removed and replaced by Shubat-Enlil (technically an Assyrian city, capital of Tiglath-Pileser III but Civ doesn't seem to distinguish)
-Cairo replaced with its original Egyptian name
-Achaemenes (which isn't a person at all) replaced by Khosrau in Persian leader list
-Wilrich (grand master of the Teutonic Knights) added German leader list, in place of Richthofen.

As per Mark G's instructions, the revised Names2 (Names171) can now be obtained from the top post. I've also edited it to credit the proper poster.
