The Walls are very nice! But the Tower seems to be floatting and is kinda off.

This mod replaces the original walls or just add a new one?

I know you didn't promise anything, that's why i asked for news, because i wasn't sure if you were going actualy to do it or not, but now i know you are :)
I'll be patient, there is no rush, good works take time.
And about contacting the maker of the carcoma set, its going to be hard because i did reach out for him about the walls and got no response, so i don't think we can get a permission easily.
However i might have been asking the wrong person (the publisher and not the actually maker).
Regardless, do you really need a permission? I mean those walls are your own work, you are making them, you aren't using or changing his work.

I never said anything about actually making them... buut Im halfway already hahahaha, be patient, and if someone can contact him please tell me, because I want to ask permission before pubish anything
Hermerico Vímara Meneses 4 Jul, 2018 @ 3:37am 
Any news on the development of walls for the Carcoma spanish set?

Titan Methos 18 Jun, 2018 @ 7:19pm 
These walls look nice. Anyway you could make them a reskin for walls in skirmish games?

[LpLp]omarr_gg  [author] 12 Jun, 2018 @ 5:32pm 
Alexandros thanks men, may Trump die of envy hahaha
how do I do this? with photoshop to create bitmap images and a software called "turtle pack" (here the link: http://aok.heavengames.com/blacksmith/showfile.php?fileid=11349&ci=daaacf76b28d5d47cbcb8a8f3262eeb7YToxOntpOjA7YToyOntpOjA7czoxNDoiU2VhcmNoIFJlc3VsdHMiO2k6MTtzOjM2OiJsaXN0ZXIucGhwP3N0YXJ0PTAmYW1wO3NlYXJjaD10dXJ0bGUiO319) to open the SLP archives of the AOE2 files, both are easy to use but you will need practice
Alexandros 12 Jun, 2018 @ 9:44am 
How to create own skins ?
Btw this is a really cool wall, not even Trump could build a better wall :steammocking: ;p
LifeguardLeroy 12 Jun, 2018 @ 5:52am 
Reminds me of the walls of winterfell
[LpLp]omarr_gg  [author] 11 Jun, 2018 @ 5:49pm 
hahaha I will bless that child! thanks White Wolf appreciate your comment

this replaces the "city walls", wich are objects on the scenario editor from the Forgotten Empires expansion and appears in some campaings
勞動神鷹 11 Jun, 2018 @ 3:30pm 
What does this wall replace? West Europe?
Clerkius 10 Jun, 2018 @ 7:57pm 
Excellent Choice!
White Wolf 10 Jun, 2018 @ 3:41pm 
Hahahha :D indeed

White Wolf: " omarr_gg! come, dinner!"
omarr_gg: " Why in hell did you name me like that, everyone is laughing about me..."
White Wolf: " Thats a long story my son."
White Wolf 9 Jun, 2018 @ 6:16pm 
I share your humble opinion, bless you for making this amazing mod dude! I'll name my firstborn son after you. Cheers
Occyfel 9 Jun, 2018 @ 6:09pm 
I didn't mind the old ones but these are far superior
Captain Midnight 9 Jun, 2018 @ 5:37pm 
I played Great Wall of China Random Map after subscribing to this MOD. DAMN! there is no comparison to the origianl city walls. You do some mighty fine work dude. Thanks for the mod.
Hermerico Vímara Meneses 8 Jun, 2018 @ 3:58pm 
Thank you for you interest! :)

Oh yes, Im really interested on doing the walls for the Carcoma spanish set, I think its the missing part of a perfect set, unfortunately I think that first Im going to need permission to make them, so wait for them
Hann3o 8 Jun, 2018 @ 11:02am 
The text file is in the IA mod files i think.
Hann3o 8 Jun, 2018 @ 11:01am 
@UR MUM M8 Sorry I'm not an expert with the IA thing, but i think if omar just downloads the independent architecture data mod , there is a text file that explains how to make IA mods , that should help him.
Hermerico Vímara Meneses 8 Jun, 2018 @ 10:19am 
Alright.

By the way @SpaceDundee, you sound like an expert in this, i use pretty much all of your unit mods, so maybe you can explain him how to make it work with IA? If you have the time of course.
Hann3o 8 Jun, 2018 @ 8:00am 
@UR MUM M8 I think Omar meant that you show him the original architecture set , so he can base the walls on that :)

For the Spanish their walls were similar but they favoured more round towers and sometimes they lacked crenelations, their walls were usually lighter coloured, from white to yellow.

You could check the already existing Spanish Fortified walls for an idea.
Also you could check the architectural set to get a broader picture of how it will look like.
Hermerico Vímara Meneses 8 Jun, 2018 @ 3:39am 
Fortified walls should reflect the post-Reconquista Walls, of the Large Southern Cities these were still simple but large, sturdy, and with square battlements. These were more yellowish than their older conterparts.

Hermerico Vímara Meneses 8 Jun, 2018 @ 3:38am 
Portuguese walls were simple, plain and rectangular shaped.
The stone walls should represent the older Northern Portuguese walls, which were greyish-brown and characteristic for their spiked battlements

[LpLp]omarr_gg  [author] 7 Jun, 2018 @ 9:44pm 
sure, show me some references of the set you are talking in order to match the style, I cant promise anything but Im willing to check and consider the project hehehe
Hermerico Vímara Meneses 7 Jun, 2018 @ 4:26pm 
I have no idea how to mod so i cannot help you with that.
You asked me to show you the type of walls... what exactly does that mean? Do you want some pictures to base your art on?
If that is the case then sure i'm willing to help.
[LpLp]omarr_gg  [author] 7 Jun, 2018 @ 7:04am 
hahahaha WeAreGoyim thanks for the concern... I guess? but this is and old projecct, I made some random stuff to "practice" photoshop, in fact I have some palisades, gates, towers and castles that might be of interest.

UR MUM M8 thanks men, but Im not really an expert on IA, I just make graphic stuff, if you show me what type of walls are I can try to make them eventually, but, in that case, someone need to upload it into the IA mod
Hermerico Vímara Meneses 7 Jun, 2018 @ 1:43am 
Absolutely love it.
While in the topic of walls, would it be possible to make IA walls Portuguese and Spanish? Their IA doesnt come with walls so their walls look very distinct from the rest of their buildings.
The Spanish do have very fitting Fortified walls, they only need stone walls, the Portuguese lacks both.
I'm asking you because the creators of their respectives AI dont reply so i dont think they will ever fix it.
MisterLean 6 Jun, 2018 @ 9:08pm 
Hey, are you sure you should be doing multiple projects at once? You've got the Aztecs, the Incas, the Mongols, and now these walls... is it not exhausting doing so many things at the same time?

Your work is damn good, but I'd imagine it's tiring doing so much. You should really take your time with these things or else you might get burned out. Or this could just be how you do things... I dunno'.
