Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Hi ,

a Q , what about changing the level for the nice barbarians and corruption .

i tried to put it to raging but it seems to work only if you do it in the screen of "the map" , that is the screen before the one where you can choose the civ you want to play , but if i do that , the whole map and rules seems to be "messed" up , so ?


have a nice one , DAY

To get the icons right you will need to alter your units_32.pcx. This will however affect all games, also the one you don't play on this map, so an alerted image is not included.

You need to move the eight last icons on square to the right.

You need a program capable of editing PCX files without changing the palette. (PSP or Photoshop should do it)

1. Load the Units_32.pcx it the program (%Civ3Path%\Art\Units)
2. Select the eight last icons and move them to the right one slot. (Each icon is separated by a green line)

Put an end to popups!

If that line aint green, its purple, or any other color, Palette index 254.

And it is not only the settler/worker icons that are affected, but also the icons for the leadre and armie, but they just get the wrong era icon, so it isn't so easy to notice.

I'm trying to start my second game with correct starting locations on Marla's glorious map, and encountering an IO error when loading the FIXED.SAV file. I had no such problem the first time I started one of these games, but this time it keeps on happening and I can't get past it. I've tried shutting CivIII down while running the correction program, and restarting the whole thing. Same trouble each time. The only thing I've done differently this time from the time it worked is to choose a different civ to play (Greeks) and to choose my opponents rather than make them random.

Any suggestions/fixes?? Is there a bug in the location fixer that's known?

Big problem is still the fanatical rush to colonize Siberia. What if you replaced the forests with just plain tundra (for some of it, anyway), and then set Tundra to 0 for everything (only 1 shield, after mining). Would the AI still settle up there?


That sounds like a workable solution, *however*...you should then also change the amount of tundra in Canada. Canada is not a huge winter wasteland like some of our neighbours to the south seem to think. We get just as warm of spring, fall, summer as the northern U.S. does. We're only cold in the winter, when it's DAMN cold. March 25th, 2002, still waiting for spring-like weather

Anyways, from a gameplay perspective, if you make the change you suggested above it would totally cripple the Americans & Iroquois in N. America, due to how much of the map there is tundra.

Another thing I noticed, playing this map as the Americans, every single city I settled adjacent to a river still needed an aqueduct for growth > size 6. I've never experienced that "glitch" on a random-generated map.

And I, too, have experienced significant slowdown, even as early as the year 200 or 300 A.D. I have an Athlon 1400MHz, with 1GB of RAM, running Windows 2000 on a four-HD RAID-0 array, yet it still gets stupidly slow at the start & end of every turn, while it processes the unit movements, city build orders (not the interactive part, but the part where the game adds shields to the prod'n boxes of the various cities). I've never had a slowdown issue playing the game-provided HUGE maps...is it much larger than them? I didn't notice...

Please increase Movement Speed of Modern Naval Units!!!
5 Tiles for a Battleship is nothing.
It has to be more like 10 Tiles.
Same with Subs, Destroyers, Aegis Cruiser, Nuclear Subs and Carriers.

Frigates and Galleons should also be increased.

Galleys and Pirogues are just fine.

Air units are okay. Though maybe the bomber could get an increase by 2 tiles.

My 2 cents.

Apart from that: GREAT WORK!!!

Hey, if anyone is still watching this thread who can answer my question, I'd be much appreciative...I started a new game last night as the Germans, got the correct starting position, no problem, but every time I went to build a new ciy, it always wanted to call it Berlin. Any idea what this is?

i have a question now... i edited around my Marla's bic a bit, and now my tech rate is highly speeded up. I used gramphos' CMT to add a few units and change one starting position...

and ive used 1.8 previous to my changes too

but i never before have had the priviledge of the Industrial age by 700 ad, on regent.

What could i have altered. Ive heard that the CMT sometimes speeds up the tech rate. Or is this crazy Ai trading that will be fixed on (hopefully) friday's patch?

Another problem with Marla's Map is that there are no horses in America, but the Iroquese Unique Unit needs horses, so the Iroquese cannot build any Unique Units and therefore do not get the benefits of a Golden Age.

But since Marla is against putting horses in Amerika, I suggest removing the requirement for horses from the Iroquese Unique Unit.

Patch Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

now that the patch1.21f is out I heard that you can NOT make any changes to marlas map if you install the patch and any changes that one has made to Marlas Map will be wiped out is this true?? I also heard that the starting positions on Marlas Map can not be used as they were written? So in other words patch 1.12f make the map and any changes worthless if the patch is used? is this correct?

I guess I will not install the patch I do not want to lose all the work I did on Marlas Map. Patch 1.16 is a good one. I may install Civ3 with 1.21f on my lap top but will have to use a small map because it is only 450Mzh 64 MB and would most likely be to slow on a large map.

Darn those updates, but on the other hand, some good ones.

Did anyone notice that the editor has the funtion but said it was for "future" use?

I dunno, i think Martha's map is in need of updating...

thanks for the update on CPT tho Gramphos, works wonderfully...

but with the current Martha's settings, im still in a hyper-tech race i find... but its better in a way... im only hitting the Middle Ages by the time of Christ, and not by the time of 500 B.C. (EDIT: um, in this case im comparring Civ3 v 1.17f to 1.21f)

so... how does anyone else alter their Martha's? I rather not tinker with the tech rate or costs

or can we expect an update?
