Am I wrong, or you also edited wall towers???

Amphitheatre is beautiful, is it the Colosseum from 82AD?

no, that is the great amphitheatre... not the colosseum...

towers are not reskinned as walls but at difference of buildings (dozen tgas per item), walls and tower have few textures...

it seems like your pushing RTW to its very limits and beyond goodwork and i hope it all works out

**DAVIDE** · February 13, 2008, 04:03 PM

thanks.... i think rtw with a great massive graphical reskin, can challenge med2 in that field.... i wanna take rtw engine to his true limits... like a hyper graphical overclockin

my collegue, hint me for this square design... i think it's better because it's a real pattern of the roman senate

**jackwei** · February 13, 2008, 07:49 PM

Well the Romans and Greeks have different statues?

Would the statue look like Mars or Augustus or Caesar etc?

If you could have more than one statue then well just say this will be a New Rome.

I think editing the Colosseum prehaps making the colour of it slightly darker similar to way it look in gladiator and other films or even skining the triumphal column would be nice to a romans taste like trajans one for example if it is possible?

i dunno if i m gonna put brandnew statues etc!!! maybe i can put one of Hannibal Barca in the middle of roman square

or one reguardin me in Punic dresses in pose as napoleon paint

btw, creating brandnew statues is difficult and then i gotta edit many and many txt, layouts included... maybe i just make a huge reskin for all the cultures

Well, the rome now it's the same, but with brandnew massive graphical reskin, it's like playin to defend or attack a city u never seen before.... trust me, when i play custom battles in rome huge city, i always set the game in pause and i like to walk with the mouse inside roads, avenues etc... as a tourist... i have still many things to reskin, as acquedocts, academy, pantheon, imperial palace, curia etc... now the actual score is very promising... seems another city.... unfortunately many skins are linked to other one and i think i have to create brand new textures for each buildings.... because exemple: roman acqueduct as the some textures linked to the curia etc... so if i edit the bricks of curia, the bricks of the acquedoct automatically will be the same... i m tryin to avoid this... huge work but i could make it

editing the colosseum skins yes... in fact i put statues in the "arches windows".... triumphal colums or obelisks etc are possible in square but i have to re-edit the settlement layouts, calcolating square coordinates and statues ones and make em combine.. tough work..

Absolutely beautiful. What period is it from? With the Flavian Amphitheatre, its got to be after 80 AD?

Looks awesome!

editing a single city, requests months and months of hard word (i mean, re-modeling, re-skinning, re-txt etc)... so because we have not that time (RTW engine has huge limits), i decided just to reskin some buildings. the settlement i chose is the roman huge city in custom battle..

that pattern has been found in many places in rome... nearby the temple of castor, nearby the senate etc

Roman Pantheon

first of all i wanna say, i did my best even if, the final score may be not brillant.... RTW engine sucks.. and many and many skins are shared between buildings.. so if u see textures who are out of tune with others, well it's not mistake .... the guilty's rtw engine

anyway here it is:

marbled exterior, red columns, bronze tile roof

view of the front, decorated pediment

detail of the columns

that looks very cool indeed all i think is that you should put some more textures on it.

Did you remember how dark the buildings here in Gladiator well maybe prehaps u can make the buildings like the flavian ampitheatre and panethon slighter dark than the white and see what it look like.
