I'd make the pagoda walls white instead of red, to make it look like the castles of Japan.

As for the Soviets... the onion domes are getting a bit excessive, maybe only for the larger cities?

Things may change before the final versions...In fact, they will!

They all look OK in-game, as I selected the colour set-up
to co-operate with the civ nation flags and unit look.

Hey, but there is nothing to stop people tweaking them to what they wish!

I really like that one. One of the reasons is that there's a church in each one - in most modern cities it is forgotten I think. On the other hand, it may suggest the church playing a significant role in ww2 Germany...

The Japanese and Soviet cities also use religious buildings as a prominent identifier.

All I have to say about those graphics Curt is that you are leading the way into a renaissance in Civilization II graphics. Hopefully, many more will follow down the ToT path.

@Heresson and Smiley:

I used these features to denote culture more than religion.
Pepper pot towers are known in Russia, Pagodas are seen
in Japan and gothic cathedrals are a sight that is familiar
in Germany - Expect skyscrapers in the USA city set!

You are too kind, cheers!

Curt, i love the touch of adding those flags draped over the sides of those buildings, looks very cool and realistic!

I would love to see a bombed out city look, if Steph or anyone got around to remaking Gotterdammurung then that would be quite cool to simulate the Allied bombing raids.

@Curt: Sorry to take so long getting back to you. The cities I need are as follows, with their place on the pallette in brackets:
-Thai and Dutch East Indies (Bronze Age)
-Neutrals (Nepalis, Bhutanis, and Mongolians) and Communist Chinese (Ancient)
-Nationalist Chinese (Far East)
-Japanese (Medieval)
-Soviet (Industrial)
-American (Modern)
-British Indian (Renassaince)
I need them all in WW2 style. I think I sent you my current cities.bmp on my thread though.

It's funny, the 1940s are probably among the least studied eras in architecture history, yet they are all the rage in Civ scenario making.

Heh!

Is a BA in 20th century architecture a requirement of modding?

When we can add authentic corinthian pillars or mock classical facades
in the meagre pixel spaces civ gives us, we will be getting somewhere!



@Exile:

Is this a request from the benighted one?

Babylon, Assyrians, Egypt, Eastern Bronze age mix...

I reckon that will be four city styles in all...No sweat!
It shall be done with all haste! (or sometime early this week!)

The opposite ought to be true though. Representing a building or an entire city in a space only a few dozen pixels wide forces one to distill out the very essence of the style.

Curt, I was just kidding around. There's no urgency to this request. Whenever you can get to it.

It just seemed that you were in the city-making-mode and I'd take advantage of it to get some new graphix.

But hey, go for it. It's about time there were some new, high-quality city graphix out there for the ancient period.

They've had a lot of work put into them by Curt if you compare, both in terms of layout and shading. A vast improvement, I'd say.
