LOL - I didn't know there was any interest in that set still. If so, I can finish it. |

BK,
Oh yeah, I've 'lurked' through many posts before signing up. Problem is that, there is limited Krenim material out there...

It wouldn't be too hard to extroplate something, or even just "Keep within a theme"

Its cruel to want to make mod for a game that is rapidly becoming a toaster disc.

Re: Any One Still Playing This Game?
Well if SEIV isnt handed to someone else, then surely there is a replacement out there someplace

Re: Any One Still Playing This Game?
Maybe a little OT, but here goes...
I for one love gameplay over graphics. I was dismayed when video cards introduced '3d' graphics, as they would chew up more CPU. Developers dedicated more code to graphics and gameplay was sacrificed on the mass-market altar 'eye-candy'. Don't get me wrong, beautiful graphics are great, but the games I play over and over again tend to have (by today's bleeding edge) dated graphics...SE IV, (Sid Meier's) Gettysburg, MOO, Civ 3, HoI II, Space Horse, etc...
A BIG thanks to Shrapnel which values gameplay!

Re: Any One Still Playing This Game?
I note that games such as Stars!, Master of Magic, Dominions, SEIV are still on my machine after years of play. For me I think its...
A) extensive setup choices in start position
B) extensive exploration (large map)
C) able to play against many AI's at once
D) moddability using easily avaiable and easy to use formats (such as ascii text, bmp, wav)
Probably about in that order. Besides being a decent game to play of course.
I note that SEIV didnt have most of that when it came out. But it does now because of players. Im hoping SEV will someday have them also but I think the format changes did more harm than good in that area.
