#FREECIV COMMAND LINE WINDOWS#

It's for the same reason you won't Freeciv tilesets based on Civ3 modpacks for instance. This is fine for most people (it's only a game) but when you want to do something serious it becomes problematic. It means all modding and I mean any modding we do on the gamefiles (graphics&sound) without permission is illegal. If you read the fine print in most games it usually says: 'all rights reserved'. The situation becomes different when you start to distribute copyrighted material without permission**. If you have an original copy of Civ1 at home and want to use them in Freeciv they won't mind. Game companies&publishers always have turned a blind eye* towards homebrew/fan modding.

It is even possible to play an i-net game in civ.1.DOS style together with 7 and more people (up to 16 nations even canadians, vietnamese and finns are possible and so on). It's possible to change EVERYTHiNG (strenght, strategies, diplomatic behaviour of the AI, diplomats, caravans, barbarians their moves/visibilities and so on) as we thought about it here 'randomly' in the same order as a -oooh- *freeciv game graphic*Īnd can (maybe) changed by 'some -errrr- individuals' into PNG formatĪnd used to play -emmmh- 'freeciv' in with it? These graphic(s) are ( of course without any intention as to display all civ.1 units and terrain!) The freeciv folder (no 'installation' necessary - like civ.DOS) (download and unzip (for example at desktop) It may be allowed to 'produce'/fix/copy&paste civ.1.unit graphics Q 3: if someone has done it how will we get it?į will not 'release' it or add it to any database/ server downloads (=copyrights and so on). Q 2: if someone has done it how will we know? In my opinion there is a civ.1 freeciv clone already outside -Ĭlick to expand.i know, i know, i know: Similar to the point that no-one may copy an 1991 DOS 6.22 disk and hand it to someone else and so on.) (similar to the point HERE where nobody is allowed to ask for a copy of a 474.01 civ.exe version from someone via i-net.

The thing is that no-one will officially tell youīecause THiS is the/one point that (FREE)CiV.1 (even with a different -better- game engine) never should look exactly like a micropose/sid meier staff release! That means that someone MAYBE has already done an 'original-like' CiV.1/CivNet graphic set (just my imagination). (like that 'graphic sheets' in CiV.2 / CiV.3. If it's not, send a mail to that means a civ1 ruleset is already integrated in the newest (?) BETA release (there are many different CiV.1 sets in store at FREECiV - they discuss them all)Īnd that 'trident' flag is the nearest CiV.1 graphic there -īUT it's possible to change the graphic!!! R0b0's site (most stuff may not work dependable with win98se/ME -Ĭommand line: civclient.exe -r data/rv -t tridentĮverything should be self contained in the beta.
