SubWar release...

[Shadowstrike]

My theory is proven! September is the month of many releases! Can't wait to play this scenario..... maybe I could try to use my limited French to try and understand the German version!

[Paul Hanson]

Well, I downloaded it, despite not being able to speak German very well or being in possession of the German version of Civ2.

Needless to say, it doesn`t work.

[Shadowstrike]

Just install Civ2 in German. Then download the scenario and play it from there. You can install it in German you know. (I once had it installed in French to get some practice with that language).

[Paul Hanson]

Would that require having to uninstall the English version and replacing it with the German one?

Anyway, it`s a fairly pointless exercise for two reasons:

1) I can just wait for the English version to come out
2) I can`t find my Civ2 CD. I`m running it off the ToT CD at the moment.

[Shadowstrike]

Hmm... you'll have a problem there..... did you rename rules.ger into rules.txt? Because IIRC, you could install two copies of civ onto your computer, using the original Civ2 CD and selecting a different destination directory (I refute the word folder)

I don't care whatlanguage it is! SubWar is great BeBro! Now you are sending it to us as well, aren't you?

[BeBMan]

...and here is the English version...

...under http://www.civ2000.civ2.gamigo.de/english/SubWar.htm

Please read the HTML Help!

And the City Screen is available separately, it is not included in the zips...

For me the most interesting thing to hear is (as always): how is the difficulty - toohard/too easy? I can finish it without much problems, but I know of course exactly what to do...However, any comments are welcome.

[BeBMan]

Oh, and if anyone wants to host it, feel free to do that.
JayBee, if you read this, should I send it via mail, or do you dl it from the site?

[Shadowstrike]

Well, so far this has got to be the best birthday present I've recieved this year..... Good work Bernd!

Edit: Grr..... no time to patch this to ToT......argh......

[ravagon]

Er, Bebro? Much as I hate to nitpick (actually this is untrue - its my chief joy in life ), rules.txt and city.txt in the english version seem to be the same as in the german.
Opened up rules.txt in SubwarE and saw this at the top of the screen
; ZIVILISATION SPIELDATEN
; Copyright (c) 1995 von MicroProse Software

So either my english isn't what it used to be or thats from the German version.
(Or I've moved into that episode of the twilight zone where everybody else starts speaking in another language )

Rest of the scenario looks absolutely fabulous btw

[Edit : . I see what you've done now. Kept the German rules.txt and city.txt and changed all of the in-game names etc to English. I never knew you could do that. Apologies]

Looks like good graphics

[BeBMan]

Thanks for the comments so far

Some players reported some German leftovers in the English version, I´ll correct them later this week and post a small update...

[Leonidas]

Great work Bebro as always. Wonderful attention to detail.
