No seg fault with patch.

Please look over the map resize patch. It was looking very promising with some really handy features.

Persians in isometric. (Persian Wonder: Hanging Gardens of Babylon; eventually this should be replaced with a more fitting wonder, such as the Gate of All Nations, or the Audience Hall of Darius or something. Keep the Hanging Gardens in the game though for scenarios and/or capture the wonder game mode) Capturable animals, with effects. Notice the different Yakhchall, or "Ice House" models, courtesy of @Stan`.

Played a 25 min match with this patch. No crash. Will test again.

0 A.D. in 4K 1080p

I for one would like to see such a font, but I am not a typographer (lol), and not many people here are.

Making the tails and manes separate objects kind of invites these kinds of issues. Now, to make proper variation with multiple horse props (like for stables or chariots) you have to make new mane and tail actors for each horse prop (with new corresponding variant names).

Confirmed. Latest updates cause frequent crashes.

So, RTS games tend to have a boom/snowball effect, exponential growth. Unfortunately, the cool batch training in 0 A.D. only exacerbates this effect. But what if we turned that around and made it very easy to train, say, the first 200 units. Either in resource cost or train time. But the closer your get to the max pop (300 in this case) the more expensive or longer it takes to train units (a quasi asymptotic curve). That way there's a kind of self-balancing effect. And at the end of the day it's less about overwhelming the opponent with sheer numbers and more about strategy, tactics, and unit composition. One can make the effort to max their pop for that extra edge, but it takes a lot more effort to do so. Another way to do this instead of using a cost curve, would be to allow players to upgrade their soldiers with Ranking techs, but doing so makes them more expensive and take longer to train.

Yep, they are more limited than Food and Wood. You can also get more of them through trading with allies or trading with your own markets. You can also get more with tribute.

Did you rebuild the exe?

Lol nah. Mine is just a hack by editing numbers in local.cfg. The comprehensive solution would be to code a new rendering matrix for isometric. And then you need new audio code for the sound effects since the current code is semi 3D and doesn't work quite right for a 2D representation.

Not necessarily. This is a custom skirmish map from Delenda Est, with its own lighting scheme. Plus my graphics card is super primo. But some of the assets, like trees and terrains are improved. Definitely.

Nice, so what we'd do is scale it down. This is done by scaling down the "amount" of each feature rather than scaling the whole thing at once. So, the final one would have only 4 windows up top, not six. The inside collonades would be 4 columns instead of 6, etc. Doing it this way, the outer walls naturally shrink laterally to fit. The height axis remaining the same.

For this example, what I would do is scale up the tent and each tower to better scale with the units. The ship's hull can remain the same size.

@wraitii lol

I have tweaked some of the variant files for the mod, yeah. There are 100 more things I'd still like to tweak, as I'm sure you know. I might make another video tomorrow, this time with the standard 45 FOV camera for comparison. I got OBS to work. Spending 30 bucks on Fraps was a @#$%ing waste. lol

Feel free to edit these settings as you wish.

Thanks. Worked.

Well, yes. Duh. But that is not possible to depict in the middle of a skirmish. Hence the most distinctive and useful element is depicted.
