Medieval Pack 3 here?

Solver · April 22, 2002, 12:31

I just saw that an alpha of MedPack 3 is available... any comments from the official sides - Wes, Locutus?

MedPack is my favorite mod, and would be cool to see a new version

MedPack 3 where? I never saw such a mod for CTP2 maybe one version for Civ3. By the way you like to play GoodMod for MedPack2 v.2.1. GoodMod v.0.99 is close to release, the *zip file is finished just one short game test...

MedMod3: Rangers, is a Civ3 mod.

Hm, just look at http://apolyton.net/wes , where it says exactly that.

Then how much must I have messed my browser up...

Don't use the file on my page, it is a very old version that is full of bugs. Most all of my work has been incorporated into the Balancer mod, though sometime, probably in a week or two, I will post a final version of my work as the Medpack 3 whenever I get access to my webpage back. Hopefully this will be soon now that Apolyton is on the new server.

Wes, have you recently (i.e. since the server change) tried accessing your website? Has Markos contacted you about it yet? It should be a matter of seconds for him to fix it, I'm surprised to hear he hasn't yet...

Yeah, Mark sent out a group email yesterday to all the hosted site admins asking if we wanted to continue to work and update our sites, and asking for password info. I just sent in my replies.
I have done all the work for the commerce adjustments, and hopefully I can add in some stuff from Martin's new version soon.

I hope to make a major update to the Medpack with the new commerce system and the latest versions of the triggers sometime in the next week or two. I will also be updating and re-organizing my webpage once I get access restored.
I keep having trouble finding posts on the specific triggers Martin is working on; for instance I don't know the status of the unclutter code, which will be a big improvement once implemented imo.

In this vein, I think you slic-coders need to get together and come up with a standard procedure on letting people help test and/or keep up-to-date on the progress of the individual triggers, like we do for our mods.
This may be more trouble for you guys, since most all of you have started your own mods now, but I know that we all want the best mods possible, and that means making the triggers open and easily accessible to everyone.
Someone made a suggestion to have a topped thread with links to threads for all the triggers under development. This sounds like a good idea, especially with you to act as a supervisor to keep this compilation thread up-to-date.

Okay, that's good to hear. Then I don't have to kick his lazy butt back to work

That would be good. I don't think anyone has seen anything of the unclutter code yet, outside GoodMod that is, same for most of the other stuff in the 0.99 update...

See the 'threads to be topped (2)' thread, I'm working on a solution that will facilitate things for both players and coders.

Oh yeah, so my favorite MedPack will be updated! Any chance of trying to include culture in it already? See my last posts in the Civ 3 mod for CtP 2 thread.

Locutus · April 25, 2002, 07:45

Wes, I hope to have a chance to look at the Elite units code and fix the screwed-up strings today or tomorrow, hopefully this can be included in the update as well...

Solver · April 25, 2002, 07:56

Ah, so those strings aren't screwed up only to me.
