for the copyright part i thought it would be ok because you made the Mario faction and Mario is copyrighted to

i think the reason the Mario faction was ok was because much of the stuff barely looks like anything Nintendo made: the Piranha Plants are red, not green; there's only ONE Mario; and the Goombas dont have arms.

(no offense to the creators of the faction....)
It was meant to be like that.  :)

And OK Ill look.

i think that USA is funny (and since i am an American, i can laugh at this rendition of us).

would like to point out though: the "Find Patriots" upgrade sucks. there's no point in getting it because it barely does anything.

good start, guys! keep it up!

You need to update the 2nd pack, because it still has Romans in it.

hey Elim, i'd like to give some feedback on some of your mods.

1. ive noticed a reoccurring theme when it comes to certain upgrades. the benefits that some upgrades give you are like, +10 health and +1 attack. well, in a game where the average unit HP is 800 and the average attack is 100, +10 HP and +1 attack is virtually worthless. now, if they were +200 HP and +50 attack, then there'd be a reason to research them!

2. pretty much the only reason why your mods dont work with GAE is because you use .jpgs. honestly, who uses .jpgs? pngs are lossless and are much better quality. now, before you say that pngs are more space eating, i would like to remind you that they are not much bigger than jpgs, and look 10X better!

3. i would like to congratulate you on making better quality mods! you and your brothers are getting better!

Stop attacking him for using jpgs. If you can't stop, do it for the merge. Also, if you'd check the timeline you'd know that jpgs are supported now.

Eliminator, it seems pine woods has problems... Could you try to fix it?

i didnt know that GAE now supports jpgs; but even so, pngs are better quality. honestly, to me it just seems like a step backwards.

JPG is a bad format when it comes to (re)usability, but that really only matters if you plan on other people making derivatives of your textures.

Worse, JPGs mean that every time YOU save the texture, maybe you modified it a tad, or needed to add a tiny modification, or even if you don't change it at all but resave it. JPGs also can't suppose alpha, so even if your model isn't using alpha (to be honest, every model should have team color at least somewhere, and its a bad idea to split textures into too many files, as that makes a mess, tends to eat more space, and overly, should only be done if you need to toggle between transparency and team color).

Didn't really seem like an attack, more so just advice... I mean .pngs are better... And whats bad about working on both engines?

I agree, I only used jpgs because That format had just been added to MG and I was testing it.
You need to update the 2nd pack, because it still has Romans in it.
I kinda want to keep them in, maybe I rename them to fantasy romans....

Advice isn't advice when you keep hammering at it, obviously. No it's not bad...never said that. I just don't think Zoy should talking about using jpgs if the merge is going to happen...no point. Eventually Elim will use GAE/future glest...

I kinda want to keep them in, maybe I rename them to fantasy romans....
If you're keeping them, then I suggest that Romans be taken out of the megapack...romans isn't magic or tech...

sorry, ultifd, i had forgotten that i asked about it before....  :-[
but, even though the merge is happening, i still think that pngs would be a better choice over jpgs....

It's OK...I mean, it is a better choice, but I think you can just let Eliminator take his time or wait till after the merge to convert his mod(s) to PNG... No need to rush, after all. IMO, other things would be better to focus on.
Eliminator, it seems pine woods has problems... Could you try to fix it?
What problem?
Well, it seems to be broken; I guess. Do you think you could upload it?
I tried to use the one that was with the vbros pack, but it's broken (bad eliminator, bad) and too much of a mess for me to fix. If you have a working copy, think you or anyone else can take the screenshot? It's the "In the Forest" map (a default Glest map), and the screenshot location is a bit south of player one's starting location. MG or GAE will be needed to get the correct camera angle, and you'll have to increase the max rendering distance. Please use photomode to hide the GUI as well. Alternatively, upload me a working copy of pine woods and I'll get it done. Thanks.

Does anybody recognize this song? I don't know...
Anyways I wish I had this person's graphic card. Not the lag though...and I wish he didn't turn off the water effect.
Looks more of a showcase of the vbros mods.
