Call for Scenarios - Page 2

Forgive me if this is a bit off topic...

Jay Bee, I have always loved your scenarios! IMHO, they are simply the best there are, especially Age of Thunder. I remember seeing on your site a long long time ago something about a scenario you were working on about the S. American indepence movements and Simon Bolivar; when will that one be released? I can't wait to play it!

If anything ever motivates me to use on of my many ideas for scenarios and actually make one, it will be the inspiration from your excellent scenarios.

Geography,

he doesn´t want to release it

I try to convince him but I couldn´t,
is a mod-pack, not an scenario

Jay Bee · January 10, 2001, 19:22

Hi GeoDan,

Thanks a lot for your support

Re Bolivar, Shaka is correct. It was not really a scenario but rather a mod-pack in the style of Spanish Pride but playing in the Americas. Units, tech tree, wonders etc were all adjusted to match the settings. The mod covered the pre-hispanic world, the colonial age, the independence and latter the XXcent.

I sent it to some people, including Shaka, and all of them suggested it to be released. But I did not "see" it. Too many loose ends in my opinion.

Anyway, one day I had the wonderful idea to compress my hard disk without making security copies first. Guess what happened. I do not have these files anymore. In addition to Shaka I recall to having sent the scen to Stefan, Allard, Jesús M. among others. Perhaps any of them still keep a copy?

This scenario could have been the very very first one to feature Erwan's work, as I had access to his wonderful units well before they became so deservedly popular

Uh, another thing. In my site there is a two-thumbs-up scenario on the Bolivar subject written by Mike Daumen. I strongly advise you to give it a try.

I still have the files. In my opinion it is wonderful and a lot of fun.

Jay Bee · January 11, 2001, 15:28

Great! Stefan, could you send it back to me? (if only to change the leader's name of the Americans from Guillermo Clinton to Jorge Arbusto (G. Bush in Spanish)

)

PS. Didn't have time to work on the map yet, sorry. Hopefully this weekend

Jesús Munoz is also working on a very promising project at the moment.

Jay Bee, I will send the files to you tomorrow.

Shaka Naldur · January 12, 2001, 17:11

oh!, so you aren´t gonna release it??

to Stefan and Jesus,

you´ll need to explain the joint project

how do you do the blue quote thing??

Stefan Härtel · January 12, 2001, 17:34

Just tipe in a brecket like this [, put a "Q" (or "Quote" if you want) inside of it, andother bracket ], type the text, and do the same procedure, with the exception of putting a / in front of the q(uote).
Looks like this (Without the spaces of course):

[ Q ] text [ /Q ]

The same works for italics ([I]), bold script and perhaps for font sizes and colours as well, although I haven't tried this out yet. It should also work for *.gif files ([img]), if I remember correctly, but perhaps Jay Bee can explain this better.

About out joint project, I'm not sure wether JB wants me to release the information, I'd wait for his reply on that.

Yes, it does. see:

Thanks for the deference Stefan. Better wait until it's more developed.

Shaka Naldur · January 13, 2001, 01:52
