What of the Civ Scenario Collection?
Are Allard and Andrew ever going to update it again?

But aren't all scenarios at the Spanish Civ2 site too now? And didn't you, JB, pretty much create CSC (or pick the categories or something)? So aren't YOU responsible? And are YOU updating YOUR site, I don't think so!

Maybe someone could revive CSC too... Or even merge it into the SLeague, to really make it the one-stop Civ2 scenario site.

No, thanks. Updating one site's worth of bad code is fun enough.

CSC was merged with the Spanish Site some time ago. Glad that at least someone noticed

So what...The CSC site is officially pronounced dead? If it is completely redundant with JB's fine site then why host it? Why not use the server space and pick up WarVoid's site or something like it? Or is this a lot more complicated then I think it is?

Well, not really, but the result is no different. He has showed his face again recently, but he suddenly just retired from Civ2 and anything/anyone related to it about 2 years ago.

CSC still has a little extra left, it has some graphics as well.

Merging CSC into SL would be a good idea, but putting all the scenarios up there, creating the necessary pages (and maybe even database or so), and actually updating it and adding new scenarios requires a LOT of work. So if you all really want it I suggest you all volunteer to help out St. Leo.

I don't know what exactly the criteria for hosting here are, but I do know that they don't ask people to get hosted (perhaps with a few exceptions in the past?). Actually, I do know some hosting criteria, but I don't think there's actually a single hosted site that matches these. Not that I mind, of course, but it does make the rules rather silly.

Darth be on alert. I hope you feel ready to get to work


as for our hosting program, the main rule is this

IIRC, I put all the graphics packs from CSC on my Arabic CivII Site (see sig).

So they ARE available elsewhere, if you know where to look.

When adding single-file graphics packs, could you not zip them? Having to unzip a single *.gif is annoying and prevents one from finding out whether they actually want to keep it on their HD until after it's already there.

I'll probably limit all the files to multiple-file packages. However, where a single file is concerned, such as Harlan Thompson's All Units file, it will be displayed, so all you'll have to do is right click and Save As.

Instead of cluttering the main site, i'll probably just subcategorise it into a downloads section where we can permanently place important downloadable files not held elsewhere (i.e. on 'Poly's main site, or the other hosted sites).

I don't want to take Markos' hosting generosity for granted.

I am still alive... Just I have hardly any time for fun at the computer, and even less for playing civ, and still even less for updating a site as the CSC. What's more, I cannot even access it.

I would love it however, if the site would come to life once again. I am willing to give any kind of advice, etc. for helping people to do it.

Well, not exactly 2 years ago, really, more like 1 year..
Hey, I am still alive, and even doing some nice things on a new secret scenario that will be out in, ehm, 2 years....

Are you really going to set up a Hale-Bopp Cult Fan Page on Apolyton? Will it feature scenarios? Which one of you is designing it?

I have read those messages before posting it, and I see no
reason for me to say anything different.

Allard showed his face again some time earlier in other forum.
