    Default Jack's mod

    What this Thread is About
    For the last two days, i have been working on a map, it is not a huge map, it contains Italy. a bit of carthage and a bit of greece.
    It is not very pretty map atm as i have only just got it working, i cut it from the Mundus Magnus map.
    Atm the mountains are pretty flat compared to what they should be, and there are only 21 regions atm, but i plan adding more regions and make the map look pretty.

    Map Screenshots:
    How the map looks now:
    Ugly

    Time
    Not really sure what year i will start it at but it will be around 290BC

    The Faction List
    I am only going to have 6 Factions Because i want make this mod quick as possible Plus i already removed the other factions while cutting the map Anyway the factions are:
    Roman julii = Rome
    Roman Brutii = Epirus
    Roman Scipii = Syracuse
    Roman Senate = Not sure yet, probably a city state or something
    Gaul = Gaul or Celtic Tribes
    Carthage = Carthage, might spell it in a different name
    Slaves = Slaves
    There is the lovely factions.

    Units
    I will just be using peoples skin packs and stuff, becuase i can't skin for beans or model.
    plus its quicker this way

    NEED A PARTNER IN CRIME
    I need a homie who can do coding or is willing to learn! (i prefer if they already know a little ) if you can any other skill that is lovely I need a partner because i need company, we can get things done faster, we can do more stuff like traits or something.

    Well I have fixed most of the mountains and trying different ways to make the coastline look nice and not blocky.

    Hi! Nice work so far, I'd really keep at it if I were you, because you are doing a really good job! +rep.

    Keep me informed if you progress with the mod, because I might be able to help with coding later on. I'm not that experienced with coding outside of the unit integration side of things (EDU, DMB files) but I know my way around the other files and it would be quite easy for me to learn.

    The mod I am working on at the moment is The Greek Wars, where i am a skinner and coder, and I'd see this as an interesting side project. If you needed any, I might also be able to help with skinning some extra units for that Italian faction, so keep me contacted!

    Do you plan on having a lot of regions and cities, or is it going to be more spread out?

    I certainly think that you need more regions.

    I'll look for a map that shows all of the major population centres and regions of the time in Italy

    Looks good:| btw its a good idea you call the Gauls "Cisalpine Gauls" (thats the name for the gauls who lived in northern italy)

    You could add Illyrians into the mix (use Dacians for it) with the Senate slot.

    If the map was (slightly) further west, you could have included Massilia.
