Names2 mod Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

This bic picks up where Sevorak's citynames file leaves off. Among others, principal changes in this are;
- Egyptians: Egyptian names replace Greek names or modern Arabic names for archaeological sites.
- Persians: some changes to city names replacing archaeological sites with ancient city names.
- Chinese: all names are now Pinyin spelling, and Mongolian leaders replaced with Chinese ones.
- Zulus: full complement of leaders, capital changed to Kwa Bulawayo from Zimbabwe (which had nothing to do with the Zulus)
- Indians: Some city names altered so they're cities, not regions or rivers.
- Greeks: Minor changes... some Latin names "re-hellenised"
- Iroquois: Adjustments to leader and city names to eliminate English and French colonial names.
- English: reorganised, removed Welsh and Scottish cities and the mysterious "Clinton" leader (who?)
- Barbarian names modified for accuracy.
- "Wall Street" changed to the non-nation-specific "Stock Exchange"
As with CityNames, this does nothing but change names.

Clinton Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

Clinton is General Sir Henry Clinton, British commander in chief in North America from 1777-1782, during the American Revolution. He replaced Sir William Howe as C-in-C. Since Americans made Civ III, naturally a large number of the leaders are going to be tied into American history, even if they aren't very well known to the nations they come from. lol I noticed very few of Britian's post-Yorktown colonial leaders were included.

Huh? I posted in Sevorak's mod, if that's what you mean. However, here is my civ3. I have combined many city lists, and have given first names to some leaders. I also changed some naval unit stats, and added a couple governments from other mods.

Tell me, should I advertise it as its own mod?

Sorry - credit to Sevorak, then. Names2 is based on that mod.
Btw, I came across General Clinton when I was reading up the Iroquois but wasn't sure if it was the same man.

I believe there are a few duplicate city names in this mod: Argos (Greece), Coventry (England), and Patna (India) are the ones that I noticed.

Purple is correct - Coventry, Patna and Argos all appear twice. Sorry! I've fixed that. I also spotted that "Cornwall" is an English "City". Replaced it.
I also forgot to mention that Russian city names have been reorganised to favour older cities being built first.
Here's the revised file.

It's cool. Some of them seem to be bugs, so expect those fixed in a future patch.

It's good to see that someone's improving on my foundation, especially since my other modding concerns have drained away any time I might have had to update my old City Names mod. Excellent work, C Chulainn.

Can't seem to download any files, using Windows XP. The all show up as files named "attachment" and Winzip does not recognize them as zip files.

You downloaded a zip file--it just needs to be renamed appropriately with a .zip extension so WinZip will open it.

Names2 mod and patch! Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

Since this mod uses civ3mod.bic, and patch 1.17f overwrites it, am I sacrificing any fixes to revert to C Chulainn's/Sevorak's excellent offering?

If so, could we humbly ask C Chulainn to remake the .bic file from the new patch?

Names in the 117f patch Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

Using two instances of the editor, I copied all the names from the excellent names2.bic to a base civ3mod.bic file that came from the patch.

as an aside, I noticed that the Iriquious had become less aggressive in the new patch. To the left of the list of names in the editor is the slider to set this if you want them back the way they were.

Yes, Edo is the old name for Tokyo... I wasn't particularly bothered about this, but as someone has complained, it's been taken out and replaced.
Here is the new version which will work with the latest patch.
Additionally, it has the following which wasn't in Names2:
-Duplication of the Babylonian city name "Ebla" removed and replaced by Shubat-Enlil (technically an Assyrian city, capital of Tiglath-Pileser III but Civ doesn't seem to distinguish)
-Cairo replaced with its original Egyptian name
-Achaemenes (which isn't a person at all) replaced by Khosrau in Persian leader list
-Wilrich (grand master of the Teutonic Knights) added German leader list, in place of Richthofen.
