Mesogeios – New graphical cultures
Four new graphical cultures were added:
– Latin
– Greek
– Turkish
– Persian
– Mongol
– Thai
Three new graphical cultures for European cities were created to add flavour and immersion to Mediterranean nations. Catholic and Orthodox nations from around the Mediterranean will now be visually different from their Western European and East Slavic/Romanian counterparts. In addition, Turkish and Caucasus Muslim nations will now also have their own graphical culture. Each new graphical culture now has its own church or mosque. I created a Greek church model from the existing Russian church model. I added minarets to that model for the Turkish mosques.
The fourth graphical culture, Persian, was added for persianised nations across the world. This includes Persia, Kurdistan, Azerbaijan, Muslim Indian nations, and Muslim Malayan nations. It uses the Indian buildings and a retextured Muslim graphical culture mosque.
The fifth graphical culture, Mongol, was added for nomad nations in Asia and Europe, and to Siberian nations. It uses remodeled and retextured African huts and North American fort.
The sixth graphical culture, Thai, was added for Theravada nations in South-East Asia. It uses remodeled and retextured Asian buildings.
Other graphical tweaks:
– Some tweaks have also been made to existing graphical cultures to fix snow coverage in winter that used to not affect all buildings (e.g. Western town centers, all Muslim buildings, most Indian buildings, etc.)
– Hungary, Poland, Lithuania, Mazovia, and Krakow now use the westerngfx graphical culture
– Non-Muslim Malayan states and Nepali nations were given the Indian graphical culture
– South American and Mesoamerican nations will now use an overhauled graphical culture that replaces overgrown/ruined buildings with realistic dwellings borrowed from North American assets and the pyramid was also improved
– The Indian graphical culture was slightly overhauled to use less Persian/Muslim dwellings and more traditional Indian dwellings
– Edited Polynesian and Aboriginal graphical cultures to remove stone buildings
This is not compatible with achievements. It is also not compatible with mods that add or change countries.
For achievements, and an Ironman-compatible light version replacing the Eastern graphical culture with the Greek one: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1752354843
For achievements, and an Ironman-compatible light version using the overhauled South American graphical culture only: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1825105141
This mod should be compatible with any other mod that does not add or change countries.
