UzerNayme 5 Posted March 31, 2023 Hello all. I've been playing CivCity Rome for years and am trying to acquire more user made maps. I've found a good number from around the web, some of which seem no longer available to download. If anyone has any that they wish to send me or upload, I would greatly appreciate it. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord_Chris 284 Posted April 2, 2023 Hi @ UzerNayme ! Welcome to Stronghold Nation! 🙂 I'm afraid you are very much correct on this one. The CivCity Rome community never really took off like the Stronghold community did. There was a standalone community a very long time ago on the civcity forums, but that no longer exists now unfortunately so we bought the domain and redirect it here instead. I could only find a single other standalone website, but this was just a personal blog site. It seems that Stronghold Nation is the only active CivCity Rome fansite from what I can see. We do however have a downloads section ourselves which you may have come across: https://www.stronghold-nation.com/downloads/category/civcity-rome/ It does not have many files, but you're more than welcome to upload some of your own there if you would like, as all members are. It would be nice to create this as a central hub for CivCity Rome going forwards so the game can at least continue to have some traction 🙂 2 Quote The fields have eyes, and the woods have ears. — Geoffrey Chaucer, The Canterbury Tales: The Knight's Tale Useful Articles Stronghold Legends Trails & Walkthroughs Scripting Invasions & Using Invasion Markers Extracting Audio Assets from Stronghold 3 Locking/Unlocking Stronghold Crusader 2 Maps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UzerNayme 5 Posted April 6, 2023 Thanks for the welcome. I have a good number of scenarios by unknown authors that are no longer available anywhere online that I am aware of. I'll upload them in the near future to make them available once more in case anyone should want them. I've learned how to use the scenario editor(which is rather easy), and have created one scenario which I will upload sometime, and I will be making more as well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord_Chris 284 Posted April 9, 2023 That sounds amazing! It would make such a huge difference to the CivCity Rome community as there is a major lack of almost anything anywhere. I've often wanted to get some of the files back up from years ago, but I just never knew how or who could help, although I knew it was possible. Hopefully you may be the person I've been waiting for to help me, I'll look forward to seeing some of the maps soon 🙂 I like the scenario editor in CivCity Rome too, it's easy to create some good looking maps - kind of similar to Stronghold 2 and Stronghold Legends in that regard. My hope with having Stronghold Nation as a central hub for CivCIty Rome files going forwards is that people can start to learn different editor tricks, gain inspiration and hopefully revive the game a little. From these I can also spend some time writing some tutorials as well, so it could be a really good move forward. Really appreciated - thanks! 0 Quote The fields have eyes, and the woods have ears. — Geoffrey Chaucer, The Canterbury Tales: The Knight's Tale Useful Articles Stronghold Legends Trails & Walkthroughs Scripting Invasions & Using Invasion Markers Extracting Audio Assets from Stronghold 3 Locking/Unlocking Stronghold Crusader 2 Maps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UzerNayme 5 Posted April 9, 2023 (edited) After taking a closer at the scenarios I have, they seem to be most of the scenarios that were once available at the old CivCity Forums. I looked at some pages on Internet Archive that had the CivCity Rome Forums Index of Data Content. Sadly, Internet Archive didn't archive the zip files. Here is the downloads data content: Spoiler Index of /data/content/0 Name Last modified Size Description Parent Directory - 10-dxtbmpx.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:29 925K 120-Lengos_More_Hard..> 10-Mar-2007 20:29 25K 130-HouseTutorial.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:29 200K 140-Rossatina.zip 20-Mar-2007 16:42 329K 20-The_Valley.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:29 286K Index of /data/content/1 Name Last modified Size Description Parent Directory - 1-editor_guide_civci..> 10-Mar-2007 20:30 786K 101-hills3.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:31 961K 111-Italian_Plateau.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:31 164K 121-Lengos_Constanti..> 10-Mar-2007 20:31 426K 131-Massilia.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:31 295K 151-homerequirements..> 29-Feb-2008 13:34 925 61-FCG7-Syria.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:32 671K 71-7z442.exe 10-Mar-2007 20:32 817K 81-PharosFreeBuild.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:32 240K Index of /data/content/2 Name Last modified Size Description Parent Directory - 102-Ambient_sounds.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:32 246K 12-TechMod1_0.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:32 126K 122-Lengos_Colonia_G..> 10-Mar-2007 20:32 401K 132-vulturehill.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:33 506K 152-saguntum-heavy.ZIP 29-Feb-2008 13:49 555K 2-CCRsizes1-2.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:33 16K 42-setup.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:33 503K 52-FCG6-HispaniaWage..> 10-Mar-2007 20:33 690K 62-FCG7-SyriaFREEBUI..> 10-Mar-2007 20:33 668K 82-AlternateTechMod.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:33 127K 92-OpenValley-Trade-..> 10-Mar-2007 20:33 353K Index of /data/content/3 Name Last modified Size Description Parent Directory - 103-Noviomagum.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:34 385K 113-EgyptLegionsRead..> 10-Mar-2007 20:34 494K 123-Lengos_Facilitus..> 10-Mar-2007 20:34 412K 13-Augustus_Ceasar_1..> 10-Mar-2007 20:34 505K 133-leeds.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:35 1.8M 153-saguntum-nearly-..> 29-Feb-2008 13:59 568K 3-FCGRuleBrittaniaFR..> 10-Mar-2007 20:35 411K 63-CCREditorWalk.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:36 2.2M Index of /data/content/4 Name Last modified Size Description Parent Directory - 104-Building_Descrip..> 10-Mar-2007 20:36 143K 124-Lengos_More_Hard..> 10-Mar-2007 20:36 25K 134-Callibinium.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:36 466K 144-cleanup.zip 15-Jun-2007 12:48 632K 4-FCGJewelontheNileF..> 10-Mar-2007 20:37 690K 44-FCG5-Crete.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:37 706K 54-HousingChart_Size..> 10-Mar-2007 20:37 114K 84-GrandHousingBlock..> 10-Mar-2007 20:37 785K Index of /data/content/5 Name Last modified Size Description Parent Directory - 105-OlympusEnd.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:37 1.0M 115-TraciaRedux.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:38 1.2M 125-Saguntum_Andalus..> 10-Mar-2007 20:38 366K 145-Carthago.zip 28-Mar-2007 14:22 278K 15-FCG-AscentinThrac..> 10-Mar-2007 20:38 524K 45-FCG5-CreteFREEBUI..> 10-Mar-2007 20:39 723K 5-FCG-InGermaniaFREE..> 10-Mar-2007 20:39 761K 55-First_MilitaryMis..> 10-Mar-2007 20:39 72K 75-FCG8-Gaul.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:39 692K 95-Pelusium_Lengo.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:39 443K Index of /data/content/6 Name Last modified Size Description Parent Directory - 106-FluvumGermanica.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:39 479K 116-dds.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:39 253K 126-Camulodunum.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:40 398K 136-GarbledURLs.zip 20-Mar-2007 08:18 2.5K 146-vulture_clean_up..> 04-Jun-2007 11:31 637K 16-FCG4-Thracia.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:40 526K 36-fsscreen.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:40 26K 46-customMusic.pdf 10-Mar-2007 20:40 83K 56-LaviniumSecundo.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:40 326K 6-FCG2-AJewelOnTheNi..> 10-Mar-2007 20:40 695K 86-Nile_Delta.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:40 328K 96-giggle.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:40 58K Index of /data/content/7 Name Last modified Size Description Parent Directory - 107-AStitchinTime.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:41 395K 117-Shop_signs.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:40 44K 17-Stobi.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:41 285K 47-citylayouts.pdf 10-Mar-2007 20:41 199K 57-jkgcarthfixed.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:41 498K 7-FCG1-RuleBritannia..> 10-Mar-2007 20:41 412K 87-Grand1.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:42 1.0M 97-Olympus.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:42 510K Index of /data/content/8 Name Last modified Size Description Parent Directory - 108-FRAPS280.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:42 732K 128-Mediolanum.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:42 237K 18-Crete_-_Island_Ci..> 10-Mar-2007 20:42 424K 58-jkgcarthagoFB.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:42 480K 68-ElysiumCityofSple..> 10-Mar-2007 20:42 246K 78-FCG-GaulFREEBUILD..> 10-Mar-2007 20:43 690K 8-FCG3-MeanwhileInGe..> 10-Mar-2007 20:43 763K 88-Pharos.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:43 242K 98-HousingReq.pdf 10-Mar-2007 20:43 69K Index of /data/content/9 Name Last modified Size Description Parent Directory - 109-57K.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:44 1.1M 119-Brentford.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:43 253K 149-Rossano.zip 19-Dec-2007 18:40 202K 19-Iron_Gulch.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:44 300K 49-FCG6-Hispania.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:44 692K 89-LargeCityMap-CIV.zip 10-Mar-2007 20:44 358K 9-empireresources.pdf 10-Mar-2007 20:44 67K 99-GameInterfacePane..> 10-Mar-2007 20:45 1.4M And the Internet Archive link: https://web.archive.org/web/20091006131403/http://www.civcityforums.com/data/content/ I unfortunately cannot remember where I downloaded them from, but I do know that I downloaded all that there were.

Lord_Chris 284 Posted April 9, 2023 Thanks for all this! These were actually the very files I've been meaning to get copies of for some time, but like you I've been unable to due to the WayBackWhen not archiving zip files. It is a shame, but then again they are archives and not really webpages. Don't worry about where you downloaded them from as we can put a credit on the download to let people know that they were originally from the CivCity Rome forums. I'm sure these will be appreciated by many, many people since they're no longer available. I will also do what I can about tracking down the previous owners of the CivCity forums to ask about us restoring these files on Stronghold Nation. I think I actually managed this in the past, if I recall, but for some reason it didn't seem much point to it as I didn't have any files and I don't think they did either. Let me check again. If it's easier I can upload them here for you under your own username to save you manually uploading them. Feel free to email me what you can on chris [at] stronghold-nation [dot] com and I will get that sorted for you. 1 Quote The fields have eyes, and the woods have ears. — Geoffrey Chaucer, The Canterbury Tales: The Knight's Tale Useful Articles Stronghold Legends Trails & Walkthroughs Scripting Invasions & Using Invasion Markers Extracting Audio Assets from Stronghold 3 Locking/Unlocking Stronghold Crusader 2 Maps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UzerNayme 5 Posted April 9, 2023 (edited) I just uploaded the zip file. 59 scenarios and a few readmes. Most were hosted at CivCity Forums. 9 were from the Tom Nobles City Building Site. A few I got from a Youtuber. I spent about an hour making sure I didn't duplicate or exclude anything.😎 Quote: "I will also do what I can about tracking down the previous owners of the CivCity forums to ask about us restoring these files on Stronghold Nation.

Lord_Chris 284 Posted April 9, 2023 These are awesome! I'll spend some time splitting these down into separate files complete with previews etc, so they're more easily findable by search engines, but I'm sure I speak for the whole community when I say we're very grateful for your contributions here! In the meantime, I've promoted you to the Contributors user group to show our gratitude for the way you've helped the community. It's a terrific achievement and yet another reason I continue to run Stronghold Nation after all these years 🙂 2 Quote The fields have eyes, and the woods have ears. — Geoffrey Chaucer, The Canterbury Tales: The Knight's Tale Useful Articles Stronghold Legends Trails & Walkthroughs Scripting Invasions & Using Invasion Markers Extracting Audio Assets from Stronghold 3 Locking/Unlocking Stronghold Crusader 2 Maps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UzerNayme 5 Posted April 10, 2023 (edited) Thanks for the promotion Lord Chris. I'm happy to help. I'll have more file submissions in the near future. Edited April 10, 2023 by UzerNayme 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
