Hi Cannabico,

first of all, thank you so much for this! The game looks really pretty now.
Though I'm really missing the old symbols, mostly for nostalgic reasons. I know that tastes and preferences differ from god to god...
I have redone my favorites in a higher resolution and saved them as a .bmp to simply overwrite the new ones, but they don't seem to "stick" to my creature. I went to tattooing and there they get applied, but when I reload the game they're gone again.
Could you tell me exactly how to proceed in creating the .raw files for the symbols? Tool available to me: Inkscape, Irfan View (for viewing .raw and conversion into .raw), Gimp.

Thanks again for the pretty textures and thanks in advance for any pointers you have for a modding newbie.

I loved this mod when I first began replaying B&W 1 after all these years but i had deleted it a few months ago. Now i have returned only to see that I cannot do any Skirmish at all. As soon i start one, the game closes automatically. Also my player symbol is stuck on the Circle. I clicked the Gold Story scroll to go Land 2 but my Creature disappeared into the Aether never to be found

Amazing mappack with alot hours gameplay! <3
BUT, Level 8 Aztec God is impossible...

I have already started a number of attempts and have placed a new village center in various places with a 5-piece scaffold...
Once directly at the temple near the places of worship (so that my creature could help, which he only partially did as he often attacks my temple), once next to the temple on the sandy ground and once opposite on the beach area.
No matter where, after about 20-30 minutes of playing time, the enemy's sphere of influence is so large that you will be bombed away with a megablast!
So building near the temple is not an option...

Just for fun, I brought ALL citizens to the place of worship right at the start of the game to pray so that they wouldn't be killed by the massive lightning wave & wouldn't be "converted" by the enemy creature there (which happens very quickly, since every village center only has ~ 150 faith and you lose everything quickly) to hope that the storm will stop soon...
Wrong thought!
Didn't work!

So there's no alternative left... there's a storm in the entire area and unfortunately you can't place the existing scaffolding that far from the existing village centers WITHOUT being too close to the enemy, otherwise you'll get another megablast hail receives!

The level is really "diabolical", but in my opinion it's "too" diabolical because it's really impossible to gain a foothold there!

There is certainly a very specific (rare) point from the creator (through tests) with which you can really build your village, but I think it's far too long to "test" each individual point, which always takes about 20-30 minutes too expensive...
This level is certainly "doable" without cheats, but "figuring it out" will probably take longer than the actual playing time if you have managed to build a village.

Maybe there is a tip from the creator as to where the best place to start?! ;-)

Unfortunately, level 9 is buggy and after a certain time you always get a game crash at exactly the same time! (Save point was created before and the crash occurs after exactly 15 seconds).
Unfortunately this map is not playable!

Otherwise very very good maps and certainly a lot of work! :-)

A “reissue” would be LEGENDARY!
The maps were really easy to play and it was a lot of fun!
Unfortunately, there are almost no good, “bug-free” maps left.
I would also like to create some myself, but the maps I created myself wouldn't be as much fun as those made by other people, since you know all the spots, villages, wonders, etc....

Hope this is a sufficient review! :-D

Greetings
