How Many levels of Sprites will there be?

[unmerged(196349)]

I would Be Perfectly happy with 4 levels

Level one 1836-1850 or so

Level two 1850-1880 or so

Level three 1880-1905 or so

level four 1905-1936 or so

This is pretty much what I had expected in the first place.

I don't think there's need for more than 2.

Actually I'd like 5.

2 early (early early and late early)

1 middlish.

2 later (early later and later later).



It's nice to mark play-time. Not to mention that whole "Keeping up with the Jonses" emotional thing. Also it would be better to have a more gradual change, would seem a little silly to me that one minute the British soldiers are marching around in their ridiculous red clown coats, and then all of a sudden *poof* they are sporting khaki like proper soldiers should. There should be more of a 'gradual evolution' as it were.

Is the amount of sprite levels moddable?

I asked the same question here before. We demand answers.

You guys'd better wait for the sprite DLC

 

[Puppets]

Looking at the gfx>anims folder, you could ( in theory ) add more sprite levels and create sprites for tanks and airplanes.
Now, we just have to find a way to edit those sprites.

It would be cool if they make one.

I think the HOI3 sets have been fairly successful so I'd imagine they will.

So when we get to 1900s+ the redcoats, yankee bluecoats etc etc will still be marching around the map.

Score.

I have to ask Paradox, I know you are busy an all but for the sake of completion, would a sprite representing the big change into 20th century combat dress really be pushing the boat out too much?

the sprite does change, usually around then in my experience.

How did you manage to post to the thread without reading it?

There is two sprites per nation. The 1800s and the 1900s, you could simplify.

 

[podcat]

it should be scriptable if you wanted more levels. the unit look change is triggered through technology, so the bolt action rifle tech (1900) unlocks the more modern unit appearance for example. if you wanted to mod this you could create more levels of sprites (paint new textures etc) and place more unit level updates in the techs.

Thank you and that's wonderful news.

Well, given the thread started with a comment about there being the Japanese Samurai sprite and then a regular infantry sprite I took it as simply unciv and civ, I do not recall seeing anything in the way of dates in the first page of posts at the start of the thread.
