Re: Streamers and Standards Updated
Morkilus, thanks for the link to the GUI mod. From the looks of it, I still can't do what I had hoped. Dom2 let you load specific GUIs based on the nation you were playing. Seems the best we can do in Dom3 (still) is overwrite the image files for the single, universal GUI. Alas.
Also, that's awesome you've got Sylvania going in MP. I'd love to read the AAR from that game.  Great to hear you like those old mods!

In Windows?
You can kindof. You can create a different desktop icon for different playings. Such as, I like Pangaea. I can create a shortcut using the modders library image of Lord of the Wild as an icon. That shortcut can run a bat file. The batfile can swap in a nice green gui set. Then it can call Dom3 with my favorite settings for playing Pangaea such as run in a window, no fades, no music, no credits screen, renaming on, large hall of heroes, strong indepts, maximum magic sites, high supplies and low resources for better AI play. Also auto-save backups on the games. Oh and put me directly into the game I was playing like other games that have a "resume game" option.
In Linux its even easier. In Mac Im sure its there but I dont know the particulars.

Re: Streamers and Standards Updated
Great Mod.
Any thoughts on getting ahead of things with Streamers and Standards by adding Formosa and Graxx and any others in the works?

Re: Streamers and Standards Updated
Gandalf: It ought to be a quick thing to put together flags for other upcoming nations. As of this moment I did not know there were yet others coming down the line. Any place to get a look at Formosa or Graxx? A forum search didn't yield very much info.
Sombre, Foodstamp & llama: Thanks!

Re: Streamers and Standards Updated
I'm guessing Formosa won't actually be ant people. I miss the Klackons! Maybe it's time to make my own mod.

Re: Streamers and Standards Updated
Formosa will be based off the Fomorians from Celtic mythology I am guessing. They were evil giants that fought the Tuatha.

Re: Streamers and Standards Updated
That should have been Fomorian (early age) and Gath (all 3 ages). Fomoria is nation 14, Gath is 20,45,65. There is also Special Monsters (24 and 25).
Most of the fomoran units can be seen in the game files. The ALL_Units game shows them. A bunch of Milesians, Fir Bolgs, Fomorians, Nemedians, Partholonians. Im not sure if they all are fomorian. There is alot of text about them all tied in with the Tuatha and Eriu with some ancient wars.
And Im not sure what is in the works for Gath. The only thing I can glean on Gath is "Time of the Nephilim".
Here is the descript on Fomoria so far...
Quote:
The bountiful land of Fomoria was claimed by the Fomorian Giants. They were once guardians of the dark and stormy ocean realm of the drowned dead. But with death ever near their loyalties changed and their malice grew. With the ascendancy of a previous Pantokrator they were punished and banished from their dark home. The full effects of the curse became evident when the Fomorians settled in a fertile land. Their offspring were short and cursed with monstrous appearences. The few surviving Fomorian Giants saw their once proud race degenerate and die. Then came the Patholonians. They defeated the Fomorians with their magic, but they were struck by a dark plague and all but one of them died. The Fomorians rebuilt their kingdom, but then came the Nemedians, descendants of the Partholonians. They conquered much of the Fomorian lands, but then the dark plague struck them and the Fomorians were once again able to rebuild their kingdom. A third wave of invaders, the Fir Bolg arrived. They accepted Fomorian rule and now compose much of the Fomorian population. Fomoria is now a kingdom of malformed giants and Fir Bolg servants.
