bit of advise look at the rest of the tread we are dealing with underwater at the moment I think locutos is planning something along that lines in a different thread

deep rivers can be made alredy by creating a long thin sea.

Can your fourway trench intersection tiles be placed in a group to make a whole super deep area?

No but I am currently working on a formula to convert all deep tiles to really deep tiles so hopefully we will have really deep volcanoes rifts and everything else too

and that is in the pipe line :d

just saw this ok how about a Coral Reef(could be a good food resource that is available early on and easy to reach/exploit?), i think IW made one as a wonder in his Wonders Mod - so you might be able to see what he has done there?

oh yeah realy nice work on the rifts

There is a coral reef tile

edit: Perhaps they could give slower movement on small ships, aswell as kelp. I dont know if thats actually realistic though...

I dont know if you looked at his Wonder Mod? But maybe there are graphics tiles you could use in there somewhere? Anyway you asked and i answerd - while your at it could you have small animations to represent the movement of the sea and maybe wind on the grassland/woodland and other land tiles tiles

I cant think of any others of hand - but if you want i could come up with some more

@ Maq, well i'm not sure what IW did ,or how he did it exactly, but there was meant to be the 'Great Barrier Reef' wonder in his Mod...and some of the others i did see were represented graphicaly on the terrain tiles in game.

I have come to a conclusion rifts, trenches and lava rifts will not be able to be created in close proximity to each other and continental shelf’s .

The exception to this rule will bee rifts and lava rifts who will bee able to inter connect

I always liked the forests from CtP1, you could even make them into a new terrain, they look kinda like "open woodland", you might have to change the shade of green on the ground though. The jungle looks more open too.

Jesus, was it looking so different?

I must say, I am so used to the new design, that (sorry to say) my suggestion would be: leave it as it is. Visual difference might be needed

There is not much deferens apart from the grassland at the bottom that it could be done. I loaded up the mountains into ctp2 last night and apart form the grassland I was hard pushed to see ant graphical deferens.

I think I am going to have to pm E I really liked his swamp terrain (it will do for marsh forests.).

go for it. yeah they were complete.

by the way I was thinking about adding C3C Sn00py's water tiles since they look good and have water shelves...but I see the work you are doing and would like to see it in the game.

bytheway here is a screen shot how Sn00py's stuff looks:

Just had a look at.

Looks good, but shows again one thing I didn't like in CIV3:

It is hard to spot the grid in use, meaning it is easy to misclick or move units to the wrong spot.

Its a weird one but even though i guess technically the graphics of Civ3 are better than CTP2 - i like CTP2's best, can't quite put my finger on why exactly.......they just look more like computer graphics to me? Or is it that cow-sh*t yellow Civ3 uses for grass

Maq book me a room in 'Beaver country' will you(ref the screen shot!)
I like the idea of using/adapting TI's from CTP - we might as well use all the CTP resources we can(if we're allowed?)

Civ3's graphics are utter crap.

Sn00py's graphics rock your socks off. I'd love to see many/most of them used in CtP2, but I dont' think he has any underwater terrain

Yeah, cause we were all wondering why you mentioned it, and anyway do i look like a pimp? dont answer.

Its not hard to change terrains, its getting totally new ones to work with existing ones that would be monumental. I tried to convert to civ3 ones once but the beach tiles worked in a totally different way so i had to create new images (not just converting), i wouldnt even attempt to redo all the beach tiles again. Some of those snoopy mountains (not in the screenshot) are superb, but theres no point in any of it if it doesnt fit in right with the rest.

You're absolutely right. It won't work unless it all blends together nicely. Ideally we should probably just redesign all the terrain from scratch to ensure it's all consistent, but that's a huge undertaking and probably required someone as skilled as Sn00py or Morgoth. Hex might be able to pull it off, but I'm sure he has better things to do.
