Who Wants A Real Civ-like Mod?

[Co128]

Chances are man, he's never gonna finish. It was like maybe the beginning of May he started thinking up of this. We haven't heard from him for a while. Guess some of us got lives . O well... can't do anything about it. After 105 posts... how disappointing. Anyways, I stopped playing this game ages ago. Just looking at this thread for the mood. Silly me

I guess this mod died...

I stopped playing RoN for many, many months. Recently (and by recently I mean like two days ago) I picked up the game again after watching Indiana Jones 2 and 3 (the old school Nazis reminded me of RoN for some reason). I came back to see if this mod was done and I've found it abandonded...

Damn.

Yeah, pretty sad

Well, why was this thread started at all if this mod was not a serious endeavor?

I have the units smaller now, i'm going to work on some of the buildings now and then i'll work on getting the ranges to work.

[Skanky Burns]

Good to hear.

Keep us updated on how you go.

[Panzeh]

I'm going to look at the naval units and increase their size again first. I'll get the units looking good before i decrease range and maybe i'll make the shadows smaller, it kind of looks weird.

Then, and maybe then ill get to buildings.

I know this is an old thread, but just for the record, I stopped because I couldn't go any further, there were certain things that needed tweaking, but couldn't be tweaked.

I did mention that before, but I wasn't clear enough about it. I just got Thrones and Patriots, I wonder if I can go back and tweak more stuff now. I will attempt it some time.

Been monitoring off and on..to answer why a person starts a mod...as I have done a lot of modding in 4 years with many games..is simply, for me that is, you come to a point where you realize you have entered a realmn where you may need a lot more experience..

I got a great piece of advice years ago..

In other words many mods take a lot of time and trial and error

Good luck with your mod here Pal..hope ya get it

Getting it to work is a lot more than simply lowering the scale for everything. It seems that the skid marks vehicles make don't match their size, among a huge amount of other things.

It would still be nice to have more expensive Techs in RoN, so ages don't advance too quick. Maybe change build times.. make buildings take longer to make and units too.

How about making some new Futuristic Era graphics for Ron snoopy? Spaceports or something.

Hoping to Try the full game of RoN again.. only got the trial demo.

You can... check the different mods for this...

IMHO, Ron is well worth the moola plucked down for hours and hours off fun

Failry easy to mod, a simple Text Editor.I have EDITPLUS2 and XML Text Editor

I don't know if anyone still reads this forum(I'd guess no based on the amount of posts), but since this thread is pretty much exactly what I'm working on with a mod i started about two weeks ago, I thought I'd post here. The main thread for the mod is at the RonHeaven site, here:
