Perhaps I might tackle some future cities when I get the current crop done...

I think a city master like Smiley would also be able to create some cool future mods!

A couple of weeks ago, I asked on the CTP Creation forum about how to convert CTP cities to Civ2. I was directed to a sprite tool, but I didn't download it until today. But I discovered that there are some great city graphics on CTP.

Here's a sampler of the types I ripped from CTP:

Wow, what does the population have to be to get to the giant thing in the lower right in CTP 1?

Dunno. I've never gotten that far in CTP. It combines fascinating potential with a fundamental lack of playability.

Huh.... those are pretty good city graphics. Pardon my humble ignorance but what exactly is CTP? I can't imagine there being an effective way to shrink the size of the graphics to fit in the cities.png graphic however, not without severely hurting the quality of the image.

CTP = Call To Power, a Civ-style game published by a different company. Notable among its differences were future era advances that added another 50% to the tech tree. Apparently it also has 96x72 city graphics.

It looks to me that a simple reduction to 66% works fine.

	Suffering from ads?

Yep - That is similar to the old jpeg file that I had on my HD.
I used bits of it to make the new cities for ToT -

Though, on my file I had to clean away the grainy
white background to use the building elements.

There were three extra sprites, but they were duplicates, so I didn't include them. I don't know why.

Right now I am working on new Japanese WW2 versions.

I recall at least one or two more where some of the buildings got taller in the modern CTP tiles.
