    I would like to add some vegetables growing from cracks...

    I believe you mean "plants" ! "Vegetables" are what we grow in the kitchen garden :)

    -I love the 1st set, very credible, feeling natural. Perfect work!

    -The second has a very good shape but I find the texture can be improved. We see a texture connection on a side, and over all, I find that the texture makes too much parallel repetitions. Don't know if I'm clear. It just don't feel random/natural enough to me.

    -And the third set : same remark as above about the too visible texturing, but more important, I'd say that this shape of rock formation is extremely rare in real life and IMO would look more natural if less vertical, not looking that much like a column or a tower. Also, the slabs on the side feel like left here by humans. I think it should be more messy.

    But basically all that is very cool. Good work !

  4. Screenshots !

    Hello everybody!

    As contributor on the visual communication of the game, I notice we need recent and good looking screenshots. I suggest this thread to post your best ones. And great if they can show the variety of landscapes and factions. Screenshots of battles and well-developed cities are particulary wanted !

    Here's the kind of use I have with screenshots these days :

    Enrique, very nice work on rubbles !

    I just would say that on the first picture (the Mauryan ruin), there are 2 shapes that look like 2 huge rocks, and they don't feel like ruins at all, they look like huge natural rocks. Better remove them.. What do you think ?

  10. Crowd-sourced Civ: Mauryan Indians

    Hi everybody,

    Unless it has already been shown in this thread, or unless it is not considered a good source of inspiration, I post here a selection of screencaps from the India scenes in the movie "Alexander".

    As you may all know here, it depicts India just before the Mauryan Empire. So though it's not exactly Maurya, it should be rather close to what is being designed for 0AD now. Unfortunately, almost no architecture featured here, but some interesting details in the soldiers, bowmen and elephants. I made 4 groups of caps :

    -palace

    -foot soldiers

    -elephant soldiers

    -elephants

    Here below are small versions, but by clicking in the links above you'll access the original versions (1500px large).

    I hope it helps ! :)

    I created them. Some of them do not have higher quality versions and some do.

    Ok. Mythos_Ruler, great great work!!

    I wonder : the first emblem of the macedonians have an almost fluo purple color. Is it accurate ? It's surprising to me.

    And the Mauryan emblem, I think it lacks some lisbility. We don't really guess the 3 lions of the pillar... So, maybe a single lion, or a different graphic style for the trio would help having it clearer. Just a thought.

    Did you made all that on Gimp ?

    For the information, I did the box-art on Inkscape, with a little work on Gimp for the background that links game screenshot and greek pottery photo.

    Hi! The files used in the game are 128x128 images found in

    ...0 A.D. Alpha\binaries\data\mods\public\art extures\ui\session\portraits\emblems

    I am not sure if there are higher quality versions around.

    --Brynn

    Thanks a lot Brynn! Sure, having the emblems in higher quality could be very useful for visual communication. Someone have them available in the network ?..

    Thank you everybody for the feeback, thanks Pedro for the font, thanks Jeru for your detailed help.

    Brynn, that all makes me wonder : Maybe it could be great to have a forum thread dedicated to screenshots ! Just the way there's the thread "0 A.D. on Youtube", there could be "Users Screenshots" !

    I personally don't have time (or so few..) to play the game, so I can't produce screenshots. But I guess others in here would be productive at it and with very good looking scenes of battle of city building !

    That would greatly contribute to the making of communication material like the box-art.

    I will surely send an update of the box-art by tomorrow.

    Another version :

    The soldiers picture is a photo I took this summer in Greece of an Ancient pottery.

    Can someone confirm me if 0AD can include exterior pictures, as long as these are public domain (this is the case here) ?

    I'm not very happy with the catch sentence in the upper part. Probably too big, or needing some stuffs around it. I'll see how I can improve that.

    Are there other logos or informations to include in the bottom ?

    Thanks
