I've been working on a mod lately which basically changes years to turns.
It was made due to the simple fact that I found the game a little short lived with the time limit.
So here's what I've done:
- Years to turns. Text including "years" changed to "turns" aswell.
- One now has 1000 years of extra gameplay. One would then start in turn 87 instead of year 1087 in the early period.
- Compass not necessary. Had to change due to "timewarp"
- Gunpowder is not necessary either. Due to "timewarp"
- Dead units are more bloody. Cause they aren't at all originally! Added some bloodquirts and stuff. Looks nice!
- PLus some minor fun changes. These minor things won't effect gameplay. But I just edited some of the scandinavian names since I'm from Norway. Plus some other things.. hihi
Anyways... I'm still testing the installer for the Mod. But I will post an url and upload it aswell when I'm done. Also... Some events aren't included... The Golden Horde event is hardcoded I think so I can't fix that. Maybe in a patch when files are more external and not just hardcoded...
By the way.
See that many people are working on some nice looking mods.
I'd be more than happy to make an installer that includes all of them. Cause then they just "checkmark" what they want to install.
And ofcourse, credits of the modders will be included.
I mean, with so many mods out there. One can easily screw up original files.
And that's what I'm making failsafe for the moment.
But if you got a mod. And would like it included. Then please leave a post here with an url to it!
OK?
