  1. https://trac.wildfiregames.com/changeset/23843#file0 https://code.wildfiregames.com/D270 So, what syntax must I use in the technology file? Is there an example in-game? A good use case for EA would be the Seleucid reform techs. It unlocks either Silvershield Pikeman or Romanized Heavy Swordsman, so what the tech could do is remove the other.
  2. Hey there. I have made a Bug Report thread here: There are numerous errors in the Alpha 23 version of the mod that have hence been corrected for the upcoming Alpha 24 version.
  3. Please post bug reports for DELENDA EST here. Make sure to: Ensure you are running alpha compatible version of the mod. If you have the development (SVN) version of 0 A.D. You can run the development version of Delenda Est: https://github.com/JustusAvramenko/delenda_est If you have the latest Alpha of the game (Alpha 23) You can run the Alpha 23 version of Delenda Est, accessible from the Mod Selector in-game Do not have any other mod except 0ad and Delenda Est running. To see the errors that have popped up in-game, you can find them here (Windows): C:/Users/{YourName}/AppData/Local/0ad/logs/interestinglog.html Known Issues: The summary screen errors out because of coin and glory resources
  4. You could probably leave out the "page shuffling" sounds. Make the selection sound the completion sound, and make a shorter (fewer notes) version for selection.
  5. May I suggest he be called the "Monarch." Just sounds cooler. lol Unless there's a cool sounding native title.
  6. Some kind of procedurally generated mountain system with fractals perhaps (I think that's what that guy did in your article). What I have noticed is that mountains "branch" out like a fractal does. They are seldom just lumps (AOM's mountains were just big lumps). They actually extrude outward from the heights and form ridges, and more ridges extrude outward from those.
  7. I think we can approximate mountains a lot better. I once advocated for us to make mountain meshes/models (and they could still be done), but after exploring 4096x4096 terrain textures for Alpha 25 I've come to the conclusion that by using extra high resolution textures we can make some very nice mountains indeed: Now, I hand sculpted that mountain in Atlas, but would it be possible to approximate these kinds of realistic mountain shapes in a random map script? If not, perhaps we can use height maps to do so and then the map scripts can render the mountains from those.
  8. I agree there should be a separate notification audio cue for Gaia attacks vs. Enemy player attacks. Not sure this is it tho.
  9. I know this is low priority, but it would be awesome to have a short 2-5 second music cue for each civ for when a match is launched. This is something from AOK that added a little touch of flavor.
  10. We obviously need to remodel the sling stones to include this historical accuracy.
  11. It's 100% working in the DE github version, but only for the Greek and Indian civs so far. It's not working 100% as I'd like yet. The other heroes get grayed out instead of removed from the production queue. Also, I wish the big cards you see there were generated by the UI code instead if being big pngs I have to make in Photoshop. But for now, it all works satisfying enough.
  12. The "Battle Priest" could be upgraded to hero status, and then we can add a "Warrior King" hero unit.
  13. So, I'm waiting for the Map Resize patch to be committed to Atlas, so I can make 4 and 6 player versions of a lot of the skirmish maps. And then I thought about how random map scripts work, how the player can customize the number of players and the map size etc. With that in mind I thought of a possible cool feature for Skirmish maps. What if in game setup when you choose a skirmish map there is another option to choose the number of players. How this works is, for instance if there's a Britannic Road skirmish map built for 2 players, I could make 4 and 6 player versions of skirmish map and the drop menu in game setup would show 2, 4, and 6 player options. If I make 3 and 5 player versions, the dropdown would only show 2,3, and 5 player options. There are a number of ways this could be achieved. One way is with map file names. Could have britannic_road_2, britannic_road_3, britannic_road_7, etc. and then the UI could parse that these are 2, 3, and 7 player options to list in the dropdown. That, or there could be a small XML file that lists the possible maps under the name "britannic_road" and the Ui just loads that small XML file for the dropdown. There are probably other ways of doing it too, just need to decide which option is easiest/makes most sense and gives the most flexibility.
  14. When looking at the after-match summary report? Yeah, it's because of the coin and glory, I think. I messes up the summary ui code. I can't fix it.
  15. This is the right repository, correct? https://github.com/0ADMods/millenniumad Last commit is 11 months old? Is there a newer repostitory?
  16. Bindusara is a good option. Chanakya is a secondary hero, trainable from the palace or temple when you choose Chandragupta. Porus would be a great Atlas hero for scenarios or skirmish maps if someone @Alexandermb @wackyserious wanted to help me make him. I wouldn't mind having swapping unit rosters (Classical/Hellenistic) based on if you train Cleomenes or not, but I don't want to do it until there's a way to make items disappear out of the gui. For example, I don't want the barracks and blacksmith and fortress to have a bunch of grayed out Hellenistic stuff if you chose Leonidas. For now I created a happy medium. If we get that ability to remove items from the production queue ui, then I'm all for your idea. Consider it on the back burner until the UI code is extended.
  17. In TW games, why are columnar cypress trees so bloody tall?
  18. Working on a possible new INDIA biome for Alpha 25. Biomes I think we should make: Aegean (Greece, Crete, Cyprus, Eastern Turkey) Hellas Acropolis Cycladic Archipelago Crete Aegean Sea Corinthian Isthmus Miletus Penninsula Peloponnesian War Very Large "real world" map closely approximating the lower half of Greece Players are restricted to Greek civs, Macedonians, and Persians Just for fun: The Troiad Similar to Jebel Barkal, a special "Trojan" civ defends against and attacks the players Alpine (Alps, Pyrenees, Dolomites) Cisalpine Gaul Pyrenees Pass Alpine Lakes Alpine Valleys Anatolian (based on Cappadocia and Armenia) Neareastern Badlands Balkan (Illyria, Croatia, Dacia, Thrace) Dacian Highlands Illyrian Coast Baltic (Northern Europe, Scandinavia) Polar Lights Arctic Summer Other "snowy" maps East Asian (China, Japan) Great Wall of China Chang Jiang - European (Gaul, Germany, Britain) Ardennes Forest Teutoburg Forest Gallic Fields Acquitania Belgian Bog Caledonian Meadows White Cliffs of Dover Hadrian's Wall Britannic Road Equatorial Gambia River Ngorongoro (hybrid with Nubian biome) Iberian (Spain, North Africa) Siege of Numantia The first player to capture and hold the Numantine civic center for X amount of minutes wins. The Numantine civic center is heavily fortified on a hill and defended by Gaia-player Iberian units. Cantabrian Highlands Atlas Valleys Numidia Indian (Punjab, Deccan) The Punjab Kerala Deccan Plateau Ganges Valley Kalinga Italian (Italy, Sicily) Latium ( a mix of Italian biome and Alpine biome to approximate the Dolomites Mountains) Sicilian Campaign Etruria (Tuscany) Magna Grecia Vesuvius Corsica and Sardinia Middle Eastern (Arabia, Syria, Phoenicia, Fertile Crescent) Arabian Oases Coele-Syria The Dead Sea Babylonia Palmyra Nabataea Canyons Mongolian (Gobi Desert, the Tarim Basin) Tarim Basin Gobi Desert Nubian (East Africa, Upper Egypt) Nubian Frontier Nuba Mountains The Island of Meroe Serengeti Watering Holes Jebel Barkal Trigger Map Ngorongoro (hybrid with Equatorial biome) Blue Nile Nomads Persia (Iran, Afghanistan, Hindu Kush) Median Oasis The Persian Gates Persepolis This map alternates between a "living" version of Persepolis or a ruined version of the city and its surrounding lands Bactriana Zagros Mountains Hyrcania (hybrid map) Caspian Sea (hybrid map; northern part is Steppe biome) Saharan (Sahara Desert, Egypt) Nile River Nile Cataracts Crocodilopolis Siwa Oasis Elephantine Garamantine Frontier Steppe (the Eurasian Steppe) Scythian Steppe River Oxus And then we should seriously curate the random maps to focus them to the game's theme. We don't have to get rid of a bunch of them, but we can move those out of theme maps to a separate menu.
