Heres my adaption of Innocence and Arktiem's resource mod.
Also uses Apolyton smilies
All strategic resources are marked with their letter, all luxuries are marked with a smily. Bonus resources are left alone.
The smilies in the city view screen are also changes so the smilies are consistant (and look better IMHO)

I just wanted to post to say thanks to the resource label makers, especially Heed, whose mod I continue to use.

Thanks!

This is exactly how I want this map resource-info presented.

Indevidual letters for the vitally important strategic resources. Then generic smileys for luxuries (letters for luxuries as well, would only clutter things up), and finally no labels for ordinary bonus-resources (its an understatement anyway, what these resources do).

Couldn't agree more Ralf

I've been using the modification arktiem did - his letters were easier to read than the ones I did originally, but I felt the other ideas (labels on other resources) cluttered the display. However, this version Skanky Burns did fits in well and is easy to spot yet pleasing to watch. Nice

I'm using the mod, and I must say, really helps! When you play on a 15 inch monitor, it sure does help a great deal at the standard 1028 X 768 resolution. Can't wait till I get my 19 inch Monitor. At least I'll be able to SEE things then, lol.

	mod for ressources can't download Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

When I try to d/l this mod to show the picture of the ressources, all I get is a file call attachment and not a zipped file.

Is this still available?

maybe you can email me the file

Thanks in advance

:confused:

Thanks Damion. I hope you're enjoying them... I know they certainly help me stay sane while playing Civ 3 (both the resource mod and the railways)

Just a shameless praise of this idea and its' realization.

This mod has been the single thing I have without hesitation used on every Civ3 game I started past the first one - it has made things oh so much easier - and I am certainly not alone there. Quite often in the Creation section and in ppl's screenshots to go with bragging rights about their latest kick-ass city or as evidence of another bug, I see the resource tags.

/silly mode on/

On behalf of all those who play Civ3 everywhere, I would like to present all involved in the making of these mods (multiple ppl, multiple versions of the mod) with a smiley face , a handshake , and keen expectation at those selfsame creative geniuses finding more such ideas that SO should be major parts of Firaxis' public beta team's submissions.

Wow, thanks I'm glad I went with my intuition and published the file - guess I'm not the only one with old weary eyes

Eventually I decided to use Skanky Burns variant (more readable letters than mine and 's on the Luxuries), but everyone seems to have their own personal favorite, which is great - the mod-community is everything I love about the Internet: Relaxed discussion, creative contribution and openness to new ideas, no matter how insignificant the seem.

I only wish Firaxis would put labels in a separate file and make it a toggle option in-game, just like the grid - then even people who, unfortunately, never read Civ3 forums would benefit from the improved interface...

How I can make new resources_:

Since I am a science-geek, I would prefer the chemical signatures instead of the initial letters. Fe for iron, Al for alumin(i)um, NO3 for saltpeter and so on.

Well, that'd work with the basic elements, but what about "Rubber" and "Horses"?

I am rubber, you are glue.

Well, call them "H" and "R". R is unused afaik, and nobody would think that an H by a horse means hydrogen.

Personally I prefer large singe letters lige "A" and "S" to "Al" and NO3", simply because they're easier to spot (which was the whole idea). However if you think other people might benefit from displaying 5 of the 8 resource names by their correct molecular designation, I suggest you modify the letters - it's real easy, even if you got no graphic talent whatsoever
