News:
New branch of this team is the Map Production Team.

WE ARE HAVING A COMPETITION WITH THE GLADE TEAM!
For the best mod of 2009.

Competition Rules: Must start a new faction from scratch.
                         Models cannot be retextured ones from other mods, everything else goes.
                         Must be completed by end of 2009!
                         Must be well balanced.
                         Must have good models, textures, and animation.
    --I believe that's all.

Fluff, Elim, we need to form a team structure, and assign responsibilities.

FANTASYROMANS! VERSION 3.0 -- GLEST

A letter from the Emperor of Rome:

    This is a Roman faction with the ancient Romans. You will use their military prowess to conquer the lands of Tech and Magic, the inferior races of Glest. OR....at least that's what General Galerius told me. Speaking of Galerius, he told me to tell you: "My legions are yours my gods". In other words, you have command of his massive legions.

May luck greet you kindly,
Caesar, Emperor of Rome

« on: 3 May 2009, 22:05:41 »

I kind of ran into this while trying to get multiplayer to work
i did not make this, but thanks to whoever did

 --- = not required
 *** = required
 /// = notice
 () = enter name here
instructions(what i did):
 *** download: linux-32bit
                 linux-64bit

 /// results if you click on the icon: with wine: error, success(although it hasn't done anything)
                                                 without wine: pulls up a thing where you have to select the program to run the .bin file

 --- put the .bin executable on your Desktop

 *** open terminal, and navigate into the directory where the file is
       command for this action: " cd (directory name)" %without quotation marks: " " %

 *** in terminal type the command: " chmod +x *.bin" %without quotation marks: " " %

 *** in terminal type the command: " ./*.bin" %without quotation marks: " " % and it should execute the file

 --- /// visual:

Code: [Select]

seth@Kelley-2008:~$ cd Desktop
seth@Kelley-2008:~/Desktop$ chmod +x *.bin
seth@Kelley-2008:~/Desktop$ ./*.bin
 *** go through the installer and you're done!

!!!EDIT - 5/03/2009!!!
There seems to be a problem, it loads the units and then it just stops, no error messages
hope somebody finds a solution

Mods / Genesis

« on: 4 March 2009, 19:53:12 »

Genesis is a tech that goes in the glest/tech folder

it is designed to run many mods

it has a summary of what it's are in the README that comes with the download

here's the download: http://www.mediafire.com/?jzfy5bbmzuz

Latest genesis news:

just been released
the idea is that people download this and when they make a new faction or something(that uses new resources or attack/armor types) they will modify it and post the download
this is supposed to be like a made and updated by the people of the forums kind of thing
i will take all the new resources and attack/armor types that have been created and uploaded and i will put them together and call it the newest version of genesis
