[Nakharar]

good idea but maybe a bit too many factions...

[absinthia]

[Swagger]

hehe good job stilgar!

Hey, you are from utw, aren't you ?

I think we will do one faction after another, it will be better

yes, sweetness!

Yes, it would be very useful for us, thanks a lot

very nice

Thanks

[Swagger]

in my humble opinion, you should start the mod with less factions, otherwise it will take too much time to do it, and eventually it will probably end up dead

[sinople]

The first version will contain just the basic factions (about ten), other versions will have more factions

[Swagger]

very good


can you say wich will be those 10 factions?

[sinople]

Not exactly yet.

Pakal is working on it

I'll post the info here, when it will be ok

[Swagger]

will those models that pakal made be included in the mod?

[absinthia]

ok, give me a week or two and i have a basic map set up in a modfolder for you. based on the reference map above i can probably do some rough ground types to.
i must say that the classic era south/central america really tickles my interest. some years back i got into reading about the rise and fall of dos pilas from a simple village to a rebellious city state. what is know of this area/era is foggy at best, but what is decifered from the stelas is quite intriguing. city states at war, rise and fall of great empires and sub-kingdoms within sub-kingdoms.

[Mac-Picsou]

yes i am from UTW. Where is Brian? It's raining today, i need my umbrella.

No seriously, pakal has some unpacking problems and i'm a noob in modding, it could be cool if you help him.
For the factions, 10 is enough i think(for a first version).

Thanks a lot (just to say that the next week I'll be away)

What is your pseudo ?
The help we are searching is not about unpacking

[Swagger]

stupid question:

what's the mod progress?

and the [estimative] release date?

[sinople]

Researchs are almost all done.

The modding progress is about 0.000123541% (just about) and the release date is not planned.
