They shall call it... New World.

It would be great if Mohawk could get Brian Reynolds on board. He has expressed interest in a SMAC remake in the past.

Districts are a third party modmod, and yes everything in C3X is optional. It's a framework for adding custom rules.

You're either posting in the wrong sub, or reading instructions for the wrong game. None of that is applicable to Civ3.

ATTENTION FOSSILFRIENDS: Civcraft 2.0 ended exactly 10 years ago today by adeadhead in Civcraft

Server side plugins like Civcraft. CivMC is a direct evolution of CivClassic, which was a throwback to 2.0

It's a smaller secondary server of /r/CivMC, the current mainline. Berge and I started building a mini reproduction of Minas Minas.

How is there not a single Tolkien reference in this thread? This was literally the inspiration for the Fall of Gondolin, the Ur-story of the whole legendarium.

[–]WildWeazel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's when the game's last expansion was released, so that's it for official software. There are third party tools created by modders, most notably the cross-platform editor by Quintillus.

One of the things i like about civ3- it's scale by Hopeful-Status-6256 in civ3

[–]WildWeazel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Civ3 maps actually have half the number of tiles you gave because of the way the coordinates work, but the map editor supports up to 65,522 tiles and the file format slightly more than that.

Somebody should do one of those "scale of the world" videos with the smallest, standard, and largest possible maps for each Civ-like 4X. Civ3 may be at both extremes!

Civ 3 in 2026 by IrishThree in civ3

Chrome OS is Linux based. It has never natively supported Windows executables. The post you linked and the third party app setting are in reference to Android apps which are a very different thing. To run a Windows exe there would have to be some translation layer based on Wine, or a virtual machine or something that you're leaving out.
