Graphics pack/tileset to use
« on: October 06, 2010, 05:43:56 pm »

I've been using mayday for a while but I'm tired of the sometimes slow updating and ASCII is making my eyes bleed. What would people suggest? And how hard is it to put together?

Phoebus usually updates very quickly as well.

This might sound weird but does anyone else love the shade of green in Phoebus' pack?  #1 reason I switched from Mayday.

Does he use altered raws? Some of the older updates would imply gameplay changes like:

v1.5.2BF
Stabbing attacks can now penetrate deeper than slashing attacks.
Quarry Bush leaves can now be cooked.
Meat can now be cooked. (Hmmmmm, delicious eyeball stew.)
Horn silver can now be found in native silver.
Giant spiders are now immune to their own poison.
Soap now comes in bars.
Crocodiles now have less hair.
Mountain Goats and Giant Cave Swallows now have childrens of their own species.
Giants are no longer transgendered.

Also could I apply this graphics pack to the civ forge mod or would it not work. I've been wanting to try a mod but civ forge seems to have no graphics and genesis was too overwhelming with all the crazy new plants and whatnot

That appears to be the standard changelog.

You could follow the instructions on his site to put together the new version? It's five minutes work at tops. Which is quicker than looking for a new set you like, normally.

Except that the instructions on the site overwrite the raws with older versions.

Yeah I need one with no raw edits or ones that I can easily do myself.
