And you mention a 1.2 patch!(1.1 or 1.11) You've been playing too much Civ3 or something, maybe Activision have been busy over the last day or so? Just to let you know to save confusion as more people download it.

gtset565.til, yes, sorry.

v1.1 yes, sorry.

(tto much CtP1)

hmmm. Try a single player setup. I'll have a look at your file.


Online readme now fixed. The readme in the zip will be fixed tomorrow.

Do you have stone working? You must have it to make the pyramids appear!

Ok i give up for now - kinda did as you said in the readme(well as outlined above), got to select the 'Wombat mod' and launched CTP2(1.1patch). Played some turns and got to build 'Pyramids'. Got the message about visable wonder and it will appear on next turn. It didn't . Two things cross my mind.

1.Is it because i selected a multiplayer setup to play the Mod under?(as a single player)

2.Is it because my city was only size 5(see zip) so there was no room to build it - and if that is the case when my city expands(at size 7 or 8 i think?) will it remember to build it then?

I so want this to work.........what's up??

[child of Thor]

I missed this!
So i can try it on vanilla CTP2 with patch(1.1?) to see what it looks like. Excellent work from everyone.If only i could get to my hard-drive now.

EDIT: God, i hate those dancing smarties all-ready!

From those choices, the third from the right looks best. The last one's not bad either...

How red?

[Locutus]

I understand. I don't have PSP or anything installed at the moment but isn't it possible to just replace the colors or throw a red filter over it or something? If that works you could come up with something reasonably realistic in 5 minutes...

[Immortal Wombat]

well, its a mod designed to be used as a modification. Wierd eh?

The Madurai temple, yeah... Colour balancing is hard, the photos weren't brilliant. I'll give it another shot later.

[Locutus]

Crosspost: Well, it's playable, isn't it? In that case it's a mod. Modifications are resources: it requires further modding to be able to use them in the game (although in some cases the line can be thin).

[Locutus]

BTW, I'd hate to nitpick on something like this but I can't help but notice that the temples of Madurai look a bit too blueish. In reality, all Hindu temple (or at least all the ones I've ever seen) look reddish from afar, not blueish...

Other than that, it's a fantastic accomplishment
(BTW, is it me or does the Adam Smith thingie look like Le Louvre?)

[Immortal Wombat]

sweet. Btw, I think I only submitted to the "mod" section. Is that right, or should it be "modification"?

[Locutus]

File added. News item will follow shortly.

[Immortal Wombat]

link fixed, form submitted.

(I wasn't expecting a working submission form )

[Pedrunn]

Oh, oh!
link problem!
