Oh really? Here let me edit that information on Wikipedia and say it was all done by the magic of pixies and judean slaves. Lol

Didn't the Iberians have Phoenician heritage? I would imagine their architecture to be similar to that of the Phoenicians. Not an entirely trustful source of information, but the information seems legit, and they do post a list of references: http://phoenicia.org/architecture.html

===[COMMITTED]=== Ptolemaic Elephant Tower

Update, I'll include ambient occlusion in the next picture. The black is player color and is actually transparent on the image. What are the phalangiates shield prop called so I can include those before bake? I don't which shield to use? -
Vassals seem like a cool idea, but it seems more of something that belongs in a civ game setting. In a civ game setting, you have the time to micro manage your politics, military, and economy. In a game like Age of Empires, its a race to kill off your opponents. The more effective and quick decisions you make in 0 A.D. is the more closer you may be into getting past ahead of your opponent. An idea for this may be to have an automatic vassal option. If an opponent kills off a large number points of a player, the player may be given a yes or no option to becoming a vassal. If clicked yes, the player becomes an ally that cannot change his/her diplomacy and a percentage of each gathered resource deposited to a dropsite will go to the ruling civ.

===[COMMITTED]=== Ptolemaic Elephant Tower
Sighvatr replied to Sighvatr's topic in Completed Art Tasks
No. Its been scaled down to elephant size. Its just zoomed in. Just imagine the elephant bigger. -
0 A.D. is already too far developed to play like Age of Empires.
-
Terrain has little to nothing to do to how well an individual soldier from a culture fights. Its mostly only the strategies and personal condition involved that terrain and weather applies. It does not make sense to me that somebody gets a bonus for being next to a tree?

0 A.D. part one represents Rome in the Pre-Marian times, which is before the Auxiliary system was introduced.

===[COMMITTED]=== Ptolemaic Elephant Tower
Sighvatr replied to Sighvatr's topic in Completed Art Tasks
Sorry about not keeping up with you guys. I bought a new computer that couldn't run 0 A.D. for some weird error, and eventually the graphics card pooped out. I dug out my old computer, and I am resuming the development. I am not liking the looks of the crenelations, and I could do the ledge some more tweaking to give the edges a look. Here is what I've got so far, and the blue layer is only temporary. This is without a speculation and normals layer. -
Looks really good!
-
Spearhead looks weird. Seems like some kind of jewel from the Nintendo games, or one of those Japanese throwing knives attached to a stick. Otherwise it looks really good to me!
-
Yeppers, read the other 10 or so threads and discussion on formations. It'll be implemented one day.
-
Looks like the stables from Age of Empires 2.
-
Some factions have starting civilian units that counter other civilian units from a different faction. Romans can wipe out Macedonian civilian soldiers. If another player can wipe out the first 15 working units of the game, the game is dramatically delayed and victory is guaranteed for the early rusher. Do you make a racing game just so that people have the ability to run you off the course completely at start?
-
Oh wait, I did mean scythetwirler. Sorry for throwing names, sanderd. We never played together because you were always busy when I wanted to play. I also dont look down on oppurtunistic strategies, but early rushing defeats the point of the other stages of the game. Its nice to play to your civilization's strengths and builds to counter whatever your opponent throws at you, rather than attempt to kill off the first 15 workers your opponent creates in the first 5 minutes of the game.

Lions and wolves can still be provoked by trespassing their territory or feel threatened by close presence to their young. Unlike sharks only attack out of mistake or curiousity.
-
Anybody want to buff up town defenses at start of game to make early rushes caused by sanderd more difficult? 3 additional towers at start would be nice.
-
Being a shark enthusiast and actually being a donater to fund protection for sharks, I don't appreciate sharks labeled as hostile animals. Sharks are lazy scavengers of the sea, not blood thirsty man eating predators like humboldt squids.
-
Archers were such an ethically varied group of people in the Ptolemaic Empire. I don't think archers should represent only one group of people, but its not wrong either that Nubian archers were involved. Plus I kinda like the mercenary feel of buying them from the town center. If only I could play the game again.

@Loki, I can not find the 0ad folder in my Windows 7 Local folder
-
I think ambient battle sounds should only be played when there is a number of infantry and cavalry engaged. Otherwise the sound will not fit in a situation such as archers versus archers. I also suggest taking out the additional weapon sounds from the ambience and only apply the sounds of weapons from the units themselves.

Your graphics card doesn't appear to be fully compatible with OpenGL shaders. In the future, the game will not support pre-shader graphics cards. You are advised to try installing newer drivers and/or upgrade your graphics card. For more information, please see http://www.wildfiregames.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=16734Location: GameSetup.cpp:999 (InitGraphics)Call stack:(error while dumping stack: No stack frames found)errno = 0 (No error reported here)OS error = 2 (The system cannot find the file specified.)I bought a new computer that runs the latest released games fine such as Planetside 2, but I can not work 0 A.D. Is there any immediate way to fix this?
