Call To Power 2 Cradle 3+ mod in progress: https://apolyton.net/forum/other-games/call-to-power-2/ctp2-creation/9437883-making-cradle-3-fully-compatible-with-the-apolyton-edition
Yes it's very sad that they dont included wonder movies
They kinda inmersed you into the game..
for example SMAC graphics weren't very good at all (that redish terrain hurts my eyes! ), but the interludes, and the secret project movies were excellent.. (one of my favorites was the Self-aware colony. very scary)
Totally agree. I was v disappointed they've taken out the multimedia. I loved the little movies in Civ2 and SMAC - gave me an enormous feeling of well being and achievement when they played.
Yeah and the self aware colony was great - for a while that was my "welcome to windows" sound

It has been stated by the designers that they felt the movies "took you away from the game."
As opposed to random pictures that may or may not have anything to do with the wonder.

Wonder movies don't "take me away from the game". Bringing up solitaire to kill some time while the computer takes its turn does.

The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all.

I fully expect to see "due to popular demand" the addition of wonder movies in the obligatory expansion pack that will be out sometime in late spring. It will give them something to justify the $35 initial asking price for what will be little more than a glorified mod.

Are you serious? They stated it would distract you from the game???? Hilarious
This excuse is soo lame that it cries to heaven but it fits the overall picture of the new Firaxis.
