Default Re: No more mods ? no more docs ? no more maps ?

The DomMap project was going strong and coming up on efforts for some new switches (wrap-arounds, continent surrounded by water, place image items such as trees and mountains like the other maps have).

It was also about to spur some other projects (unique naming, AI building, random AI selection, 1/2 dommap (read in a map image found on the net and create provinces), a tool to increase the map image and provide sidebars for text or keypress charts or flag to nation names help chart.

Im afraid that some of the Dom3 announcement pulled the wind out of the sails unless some programmer feels like taking it up.

Thats besides all of the half-done projects on my site (www.dom2minions.com) which didnt get fueled.

Zen has entered into what is called the "4th Quarter Crunch". He will, when he has time to actually breath put a little more effort into the mods. If you have feedback that I can quickly test, look into, take another look at about the current mods it would ease up on that process considerably.

Hopefully Zen can find a little time in the next 1.5-2 hours to sneak his turn in for the Europe game - it says hosting in 2 hours, but that could mean 61 minutes.

I was toying around with making an Elemental mod but it would require substantially reworking the units of 4 nations and MANY of the spells. Couldnt convince myself it was worth the effort given the modding tools we have available :/
