So, Pedrunn, how far are you from a public (beta) release?

[Pedrunn]

Sorry, Locutus!
But we are as far as i was since my last post. I gave it a brake because i am kind of interested in learning slic and photoshop (as you may have notest from my past works these days). Not to mention the excitement of helping in the visible wonders mod (associated with me learning photoshop).
I hope to restart the work in it next weekend (maybe this weekend).
It is in my hands now i have to make the texts. In this first stage i got all the sprites i wanted. Maybe a few more goods can be needed but so far it is ok.

How will (or are) the civ specific city sprites be implemented for this scenario? For some reason, I seem to be having a heck of a time doing the same thing. Everyway that I've tried to work it, I continue to only be able to use two civ specific cities. There has to be something simple that I'm missing.

[The Big Mc]

try looking at the city mod in the main database the files that were modified should show you all you need to know

[centrifuge]

Thanks Big MC, I'll do just that.

ops wrong thread

[Pedrunn]

Sorry for the late response i was out this weekend,
There will be four civs in the game. Their city sprite are defined for each age in the file agecitystyle.txt. Where it is self explanatory if you realize that the MinSize and MaxSize are the size of the cities.

 wich the sprite will represent the city.
AGE_ONE_STYLE_ONE {
	Sprites { Type 0 MinSize 0  MaxSize 14  Sprite 28 }
	Sprites { Type 0 MinSize 15  MaxSize 29 Sprite 29 }
	Sprites { Type 0 MinSize 30 MaxSize 99 Sprite 30 }
}

And you the city styles for each civ is given in the civilization.txt.
Where in the line:

CIV_CITY_STYLE

the number 0 (zero) stands for AGE_ONE_STYLE_ONE, the number 1 for AGE_ONE_STYLE_TWO, the number 2 AGE_ONE_STYLE_THREE, and so on in the agecitystile.txt.
This i believe you already know as i see in your posts in others threads. And the citymod is a much better source than this post

Yet the biggest city problem in this mod was the use of two differnts city styles in the same age for the same civ: The solar System and the Space City.
I solved this problem with the line in the agecitystyle.txt

Type

Where 0 is used for land cities and 1 for sea cities ( just hit me! the number 2 stands for air cities???)

And the space tile is configured to be a land tile and a special solar system tile is beach (sea) tile.
This way i can have both.
