Actually shouldn't take too long as I have the province map finished, it's just copying the map I'd put under it which isn't too bad.

I'm finishing off the province map. It should be fully finished by Saturday.

I'm in the progress of drawing a background map for the game.

Age of Civilizations 2: Ultimate Overhaul We need Scenario & event creators! Age of Civilizations is a game that focuses on grand strategy, politics and other government driven elements. Łukasz Jakowski however, included something in the game that is rare in other grand strategy games. Customization. Customizing civilizations, leaders, maps, Whole scenarios, events in these scenarios, etc, etc... This, i think is a very good thing. The only bad thing about this, is that the game focuses more on the custom creative aspect than the realistic grand strategy one. This mod is going to be an overhaul for both these things. Unfortunately, a mod with the same goals named Addon+ is being created right now. My mod is still in a Debug alpha phase, and i can't release it in a state like this. This mod will include the following list of things: Translated Loading Screens Scenarios: The Great War (World War I) With historical events, leaders and custom civilizations, starting in 1st of January, 1914. (I've started doing it, The events are halfway done!) Overhauling the World War II Scenario in the following ways: Adding historical events with descisions. Setting an other start time for the Scenario for better readiness. Giving More corresponding bonuses to leaders given by their personality. Scenario "Die Folge" (The aftermath) happening right after the first world war, (Yes, believe it or not, lots of stuff happened after the first world war) containing a variety of events. Scenario "A Modern Mona Lisa" Containing the events of mostly Hitler taking control over germany (1920-1930). If you want to play as a country, that is falling apart at the moment, this is for you. A Cold War Scenario is also being made, but i'm not promising anything for this one. Backgrounds: Including a large variety of backgrounds, from a realistic one with every little mountain on earth, to a low resolution one for computers that can't handle the mod that good. Government, ideologies: From the leftist Communism the the Extreme right Fascism there are an estimate of ~15 ideologies being made right now including governments that are only avalible on 1 country in real life, or none anymore such as Patriotism (Hungary) Democratic Republic, Deposit Monarchy, so on and so forth. Planning on creating an election system for democratic countries just like in Hearts of Iron IV. Languages: Yes, every Scenario, Custom Leader, Loading screen and such will be translated into other*1 languages. Custom Maps: Custom Maps will be added to the mod, with custom scenarios, so people can create something new on a new map. Current map plans include Hungary, Austria, Germany, Washington, Budapest and The map of Graz. Leaders: Of course, if we make scenarios, we need to make sure, that we have good leaders for each scenario. From a Revolutionary Gavrillo Princip to an alternative timeline Franz Ferdinand, there will be as much leaders as possible. Thank you for reading! Current Status: Started with V0.0.4.8 on 22nd of january 2020 Systems: -A HOI4 style focus tree, but in this mod, it's called "Descision Tree", to avoid being sued by Paradox. (I can't show you the whole thing just yet.) -There will be lots of new stuff in the game, as we just decompiled it. These new system include: -More types of Vassals (Dominion, Colony, Crown Colony, State, Soviet Socialist State, etc, etc...) -Democratic elections all four years, if the country is: Democratic, Republic, City State, Patriotism -Ideological support system (See: hearts of iron 4) as you do your actions -Changing the values of terrains, planning before war nescessary -Adding seasons, each one having it's own effects on attacks, income and happiness -Adding religions -Adding a "secret service" action, where up to 400 people can work on a specific assignment, such as: Assasination Espionage Capture Recapture Special Operations *1: Other: This mod will not be translated to all languages, as that would be pretty hard to make. If you'd like to translate to your own, come to our discord!

we all know who would be in a list of top 10 worst users on the AoC2 Forums

This will definitely offend some people oof.

If I wanted a complete province map I'd have to stitch one from the different layers I have in place. Right now I had to backtrack and work on drawing a map of Europe since I realized that I can't be using my province map as the background in-game and that I'll have to draw the provinces from the province map onto an actual geographical map of Europe ://. This will take some time but still it shouldn't take extremely long, like the province map itself did.

Focus tree?.... YES

I did a review last night. Mod is great. Can't wait to see more of it. Keep up the good work.

Final number of provinces - 4434

11:59: A Cold War Mod. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 11:59 was one of the first pioneering mods for Age of Civilisations II, released just six days after the launch of the game. Intent on quality instead of quantity, the mod was built with the ultimate aim of achieving a cold war experience unlike any other. After well over a year of work, we decided to take a break from the modding scene due to Lukasz's continual refusal to update the game in a meaningful way. We've decided to revisit the mod, and we've made improvements on the original content released months ago. Current PC mod development is led by Vis, a web developer, designer, cartographer, artist and ex-Paradox modder. Android development is led by Nine. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Gallery: Featured Mechanics: A new game launcher to allow for easy access to other mods, with loading screen support. A Decisions mechanic for most major nations allowing for the player to shape the future of their country. The United Nations, allowing for politics on a global scale. Flavour events for major countries. The Suez, Panama and White Sea Canals are modelled in-game to allow for strategic flexibility. DEFCON and Nuclear War mechanic [WIP]. Decolonisation mechanic for European empires. Overhauled research mechanic. 100+ AI events to guide AI behaviour with an emphasis on historical accuracy. A new States and Regions mechanic. Overhauled buildings. Chinese Civil War, Operation Compass, Bretton Woods, German Occupation, and numerous other historical facets modelled in detail. and more ... Feature List: New scenario: 'The Bear and The Eagle' with over 323+ events for the player to experience. Flavour events filled with content. Manually colourised images. 45 new governments for the player to choose from. Scripted peace treaties for the AI. Fixed Canadian, Australian and German provinces to match real-life administrative divisions. 100+ new terrain types based on the Köppen climate classification system. 63 province images for major cities and population centres. 1.311+ new states and 146 new regions. Redone localisation and text. Overhauled interface and localisation. Redone sound design to give the game a more tactile and ambient feel. Events written by a native English speaker in British English. Redone background map using satellite imagery and NASA-licensed software. Formal name convention for all countries in the default scenario. Historical armed forces and naval orders of battle, modelled on a 1:10 scale. New city icons. Redone country colours. Occupied and colonial administrative divisions are shown as separate nations with a 'client state' status. Replaced fonts with DIN-1451 (a.k.a. 'Bahnschrift'). Custom portraits for select nations. Redone diplomacy colour palette to match the Hearts of Iron IV colour scheme. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Contact: E-mail: vistacitus@gmail.com @Vis#5102 (PC, Discord). @Ninetiethbeef08#1657 (Android, Discord).

Bloody Europe II - it's a mod with a huge map of Europe. In these mod is: -Big map of Europe (2637 provinces) + large map of German Empire (937 provinces) -Large count of scenarios from antic times to modern -New fonts and music -Plenty of new civilizations, form civs and unions Mod has been released!

The original province map was 15,000 by 10,000 pixels, I am making the background map at 7,500 by 5,000 pixels. All the provinces are still large enough at 3,500 by 2,500 but anything under that starts screwing up smaller provinces like San Marino, Vatican, Monaco and Liechtenstein. Once the background map is finished, I'm going to copy the province map into it and I'll use that for the editor. I'll use the province-less version for the actual game. This all means that the province map and background maps can be anywhere between 15000x10000 and 3500x2500, with the only difference being a drop in detail (if it's lower) or a drop in performance (if it's higher). For comparison, the current in-game background map is smaller than 2000x1000, and it doesn't seem to be a problem.

Age of Civilizations 2 — a great game that has a huge potential and a motley, large community. How many people have become her loyal fans, who are still waiting for updates on the game, which was released on November 22, 2018 quite raw and with a lot of bugs. Major updates or even simple bugfixes we have not seen, and the developer continues to ignore the messages of players and does not plan to develop his masterpiece.Łukasz, why did you start making a new game without finishing the old one? You have not yet completed your first, grandiose and large-scale project, updates for which are waiting for all the fans, but at the same time already strive to make a new game? Don't you realize that this very new project will be perceived by the audience with negative for the simple reason that you corny did not finish AOC 2?What do we players need? We want to see at least one update that will fix bugs, and in the best case-will introduce global innovations in the game, with new chips and mechanics.Łukasz, we, your loyal fans, will remember you as a wonderful developer, and the Creator of a large, and most importantly – a successful project, if you still do what we ask. Believe me, not every one of us wants to see a new project, while the existing one does not meet expectations and prospects. This can always be done later, you have a lot of time for new projects. First you need to bring to the ideal existing. After all, he really deserves it, and it will be better for everyone. Lukas, save AoC II.We will be especially happy and grateful if you respond to our spam-action, which we had to arrange to get your attention and response.Sincerely, dedicated players of your promising project

Animals can feed themselves unless you feed them so they will stop making any effort to get thei food and will eventually die if someday you stop feeding them. That's how it works, specially for cats. They stop hunting, they get weaker. This guy is just so dumb... This is the first time I insult someone in this comunity but this guy steals content, makes money with tham and is,, in addition, dumb.I reported him.

Lukasz, why did you remove my mod and posted it on your twitter without your credit? I would like to know, can you respond to my PM?

Oh, thanks for telling me. I'm new to the editor, so I'm a bit confused on what to do. I guess I can help then.

HOW THE FQ YOU DOING THIS SO FAST.Also dont add so many provinces in land like deserts.

Hello everyone. When i first played AoC2, i played it on "normal" difficulty. I heard stories of the Legendary AI being impossible to beat. A while after i had played enough games to increase the AI level to Legendary. What i experienced disappointed me. The AI had no absolute idea of what strategy is. It didn't use diplomacy well. It didn't build alliances. It didn't spy me with towers. It never throwed me an ultimatum. It didn't managed its units well. It couldn't even keep its own country in peace but instead it fought wars that were impossible for it to beat and died in seconds! The AI isn't strategic in the minimal. When i play in legendary, i can invade anyone i want without fearing of another guy doing a surprise war on me, because the AI always accepts my pacts. If a bigger country is threatening me, i just form an alliance or sign a defensive pact, and problem solved. At wars, the AI keeps sending its units to death (and the infamous < 20 unit spam raid), and never predict an attack. The AI should be able to do a variety of strategies. Imagine an AI that makes you think twice on invading him by signing defensive pacts and forming alliances. An AI that manages its army so that he predicts your attacks (this is an strat that consists on sending units to an undefended provinces that the AI is likely to attack at the end of the turn, to avoid a breach in your front and a micro army spam), and knows if you will attack by spying with towers and increasing relations up to 45. An AI that releases vassals and demand vassalization instead of creating a silly frontier. An AI that fortifies its fronts and makes his country impenetrable. An AI that changes its goverment depending on being a warmonger or building economy. And many things that would make the game very challenging! To be honest, i end winning every game in legendary i play. No, i'm not bragging, because that is an easy feat. If you use diplomacy well, you can avoid being invaded by anyone. The AI is easily tricked with diplomacy, and if you predict movements you can avoid the spam raid also. Give it a try, and check how easily the AI can be managed. Please, make the AI harder! :p

I say go after Italy. It would clean up some of the border gore.

I wonder how Ancient Greece scenario looks like

Greetings to you, dear creators! I am happy to report that russian community present you an improved version of the map editor, which differs from the usual one in that this version does not need to constantly restart the editor and manually rename the province files. This innovation will significantly reduce the time spent on creating a map and save your nerves. DOWNLOAD Installation: Download the archive attached to the post, unpack it to any folder and... start working! To launch the editor simply activate the file Age_of_Civilizations_Map_Editor.jar. You can find out how to delete all default provinces and create a map from scratch in the article attached below. this method also works with this editor. If you want to insert your existing map into the new version of the editor, just download this file, rename the file format to jar and move it to the folder with your editor, and then work in it through this file. We wish you a pleasant use and we hope that you'll appreciate our new editor Our VK group Editor in action:

Go in the game files and open the "map" folder. In the map folder, go to the file named "Earth". Inside the Earth file, open the file named "formable_civs" This file contains a list of all the formable civs on a specific map. Find the tags of the three formable civs you want to delete and delete them. Then open the file named "Age_of_Civilizations" in notepad and find and delete the tags in their. Its as simple as that! I hope this helped.

Cities are separate provinces
