I admit it... being a Civ4 section mod is just an official excuse for me having the forum open most of the day .

Wow, democracy still works!

Oh, and congrats to Locutus and Solver.

(Now I'm going to stir up trouble in that forum just to see how they'll react to it... )

Clearly there is something wrong with having two CtP moderators running the Civ4 forum.

Spoiler:

Conspiracy

Crap, you found out, now you'll have to be executed. Obviously it's just preparation for announcement that Civ4 really is Sid Lemur's Civilization 4: Vow to Power.

Or a consiracy to shut that place down once and for all.

As long as they don't try to make Civ4 like CTP then it's all good.

Not like theres any projects going on in the CtP sections that need help anyway.

[alva]

Why not drop it completely and start making good use of the upcoming civ4 SDK.

[Maquiladora]

Probably because theyll be a thousand other people making "+1 happiness for white dog turd" mods for civ4, and you can still do more in the sourcecode project.

Thats not to say i wont be trying vanilla civ4 though.

Uhm, Maq, I think you'll really want to check out the modding options of Civ4.

Hint: I'm not becoming a mod there just so I can bash Firaxians for screwing up another Civ game

Scanned over the day you edited it. But also read about those options before.

What i said wasnt untrue, you can still do more in the sourcecode project, and besides, even if that were to change somehow, im not about to forget the CtP2 project because something new has come along.

Well, it basically remains to be seen how it works out. But if it does work out as suggeted, that's actually hardly true. Sure you can edit the graphics engine or MP code for CtP2, but that's not something one would ever want to do (except to fix bugs, but in case of Civ4, that's what Firaxis is for).

and besides, even if that were to change somehow, im not about to forget the CtP2 project because something new has come along.

That *is* true of course

Hardly, but still true. And as you said it remains to be seen exactly what can be done with civ4 with the tools theyre providing. And im sure you know more than I do, no matter what, if theres a limit to what can be done, itll always be reached.

but that's not something one would ever want to do (except to fix bugs, but in case of Civ4, that's what Firaxis is for).

Well we know from civ3 that Firaxis wont fix bugs forever.

That *is* true of course

Hopefully we can see you in the sourcecode project then, unless youre still too busy

Alas, probably only when they change the rotation of the planet so days last 40 hours instead of 24
