Looking for Maps/Scenarios for Civcity Rome

[UzerNayme 5]

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.

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 🙂

[UzerNayme 5]

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.

[Lord_Chris 267]

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!

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:

I unfortunately cannot remember where I downloaded them from, but I do know that I downloaded all that there were.

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.

[UzerNayme 5]

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.😎

That would be fantastic!

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 🙂

[UzerNayme 5]

Thanks for the promotion Lord Chris. I'm happy to help.

 

I'll have more file submissions in the near future.
