Modern Day Scenario, towards Armageddon

[Captain Julius]

Dear Citizens.

You’ve made the choice and the results are No 7% and for Yes 80% with the 13% abstains from the referendum. We’re now united both sides.
This fight was easy but we have to many others to banish the crisis with the help of Russian Federation .

The next day the President of Russian Federation calls the Alexis Tsipras and tell hims.
Together we can success and solve enough problems from all perspectives my country loves the Greek people
and we're ready to invest and aid some economic help to Greece, and for and exchanges we wish the exit of Greece from Nato
and 1 military base somewhere in islands.

Europarliament : After the Grexit as all the members they staying here united we cannot accept behavior from our old partner.
Fellow members of European Union and as the president of Europarliament the only way to make Greece to pay for old these
is with trade embargo to anything we can do business,armory we can't stay without any response.

A Trade embargo against greece for grexit? seems a little bit drastic for me

I've discovered one or two helicopters have pallete problems, so I cannot show you them. Some of these are old mds sprites, some are new, but I think they are hard to see properly.

hey nova!
what russian tank represent the 12 image?I do not recognize it

 

[novapaddy]

That is the standard, default tank sprite. It is the leopard 1 sprite.
Sprites can be very restrictive in what you can do. For instance, the easiest way to do sprites, is to have a set of MIN sprites, that suits everyone. These are then the default sprites. But having a RUS tank, like for instance the Type 99 tank, I have to set Russia to use RUS sprites. NOW, they cannot use MIN sprites for ALL the units, as (?) some MIN sprites will still work for RUS, but others will not. It is a minefield.

I'm still finding problems where I have specific Tank sprites for USA, ENG, ISR, CHC, RUS etc. Using specific national sprites so their correct tank is displayed works fine, but it means other sprites do not work, and it is a total pain to have to do a totally separate set for every major nation.. just to show their national tank type.

SO, don't always expect to see the correct sprite. Else I'll be here til doomsday...

ok! I know!

OK, you shamed me into going back to the CIV3 website (which gives a virus warning on Norton btw) to download lots of new sprites for the mod. One of the problems with using old sprites (not all, but some) is that they do not work anymore for multiple reasons. I did spend a lot of time trying to re-process them, but gave up and decided I'd be better off doing my own sprites again, at least then I would know that they work.

SO, I'll be improving the sprites that need it. Cheers

ANYONE want to do sprites, want to learn? LOTS of work here to do.

hey Nova!
I can try to send the last job I have from Mr. Superlopez sprites!( I think I got saved somewhere)
I think are pretty good ... surely save you enough time of work, you may be able to use one another!
So Give me a few hours(now I´m in RL work....) and I'll send it by private message if I find it! ok?
Cheers

I'm still a little upset over some of the MDS-flags having parts of the lighting removed. I can understand that it obscures some features of the flags, but I think the changes are somewhat distracting and contrasts with the unchanged flags. I can remake them with the lighting not so obscuring, shall I?

I'm not a graphics person, so I have absolutely no idea what you are writing about? I have not changed anything willingly, if something has changed, it has changed unnoticed by me...?

Please do whatever you think is best.

Are you doing skiffs or am I (just thought I would ask as I need to know, thanks)

 

[novapaddy]

some improvements in the sprite department:

A much better aircraft carrier, the Nimitz.
An Osprey airmobile for usa.

@novapaddy

There is no video tutorial, only words.

 

[Aizer3115]

still not out?

 

[Captain Julius]

Can you post pics from the airforce powers? the units

 

[novapaddy]

still not out?

I get 3 words, which I presume you are complaining that the mod is not released yet?

I have been working on this mod since I announced it, when was that? late September or early October?
I was intending and did say I would release it, was it this weekend or last weekend, I forget?
But this would have been a Beta, unfinished release, with missing images and governments etc etc.

I asked on this thread what guys expected. I was told (I think from the 4 replies I got ?) that they preferred to have a finished mod.

SO, the timetable has changed.
The mod has turned out to be a much larger project that I had originally envisioned.
I am working to complete the mod as much as I can. When I am happy with the mod, I will release it.
I promised to include everything that guys have contributed to me for the mod, and I will.

Thank you for your interest in the mod.

Of course, now that I have more time, I am reviewing the content of the mod, and may remove some mds content, which I think looks dated now.

Cheers
