Welocme Lopping,

a good place for the code (to start) is http://ctp2files.apolyton.net/source/

unfortunately we have iy in a repository now (ending in February) so the latest revisions arent available for download but will be on again in february. how familiar are yoou with ctp2? The AI is an area that still needs work and we'd appreciate the help.

i am well familiar with all civs and both ctps

i could work on AI but i will need some guidelines to get me started when i get the latest revision

untill then i'll get ctp2 from my friend to refresh my memory a bit

i have 2 GHz proc, 512 MB RAM, and VS .NET 2003, i hope that it will be enough for working with ctp2 source files

one more question
is that "latest revision", a buildable project? cause i have some problems putting all downloaded ctp2 source files in a project

[Ekmek]

There is a "getting the source code to compile thread" (last post)

http://apolyton.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&postid=4053032#post4053032

go through there should help. But to answer your question yes it does compile on MSVC++

As for AI, probably the two big things would be diplomacy, but we still have some work left to do on Army movement (see: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...hreadid=120528)

Really the AI complaints I'd have now would be that the AI occasionally attacks with settlers and when you go to war the AI never mounts a real invasion threat, it depends ok and it may attack but it doesnt really put a force out there. THe Frenzy SLIC in Ages of Man (which sends a massive hord and the AI gets more aggressive if the player plays aggressively) would be a good model.

This is a link to Revision 422

http://apolyton.net/dir/index.php?sid=500501934&id=4697&t=reviews&toprate=5.0000&tophits=5661&cat=303

As far a I can recall there havent been any major changes to AI since then, if anything it would be a good start. I look forward to your stuff!

Hi folks,
I'd like to join you :-) Here are my data:

SECTION: Programming

COMPILER: GCC

AREA OF INTEREST: Linux port

BACKGROUND: I'm a professional software developer for 5 years now. Before that I've coded 10+ years as a hobbyist. On a scale of 1 (none) to 10 (god), I'd rate my C++ skills with 5 or 6. My Linux skills are very good, I'm developing Linux based products based on a Linux "distribution" also developed by me...

AVAILABILITY: Depends... my other hobbies take away quite a lot of time.

CONTACT: marc at darkdust dot net

I'm unsticking this since many signed up but never participated and don't respond to PM. If you want to join just get in on the threads.

Or in other words just: Just participate.

Well if you thing you have to top the revision report thread than you should also top the the playtest thread. At least this will force me to look on the topped threads again.

But you shouldn't top more threads, because then it gets to cluttered.

[Ekmek]

yeah i want to avoid ignoring topped threads because thats why i do too. so i'll put the real relevant ones there.

[Martin Gühmann]

But you shouldn't untop the FAQ. That thread contains some valuable pieces of information. Which someone needs if he is new or if he wants to look up something again. And we should at least put the design index into the FAQ so that this is accessable, too.
