A request to the devs: Please switch the Persians to the Central Asian architecture before release of their rework

A map I made of medieval Bukhara at its peak before the Mongol conquest, with a small sandstorm about to roll in from the north-west.
Good mix of Middle Eastern/Central architecture along with some modded items …

Maybe try aoe2scenarioparser?

Come to think of it, Med really is worse since barely anything changes from Feudal to Castle when there are more buildings with different skins.

Hmm, ok, I don’t remember any of that from the campaign. I suppose it is a while since I played it…

Yeah, in the picture I posted it looks like there’s a huge space between the second and third yurts, but the hitboxes are touching each other.

Maybe. I would have to learn Python first, but I should probably do that anyway.

Start here

Then, go here

Is this the correct format?

  • No. Swap the texts.
  • Yes. Keep the texts same.

I think both work, but this format is probably the better one.

r/aoe2 is automatically deleting this meme. No idea why.

Edit : It is there now. I think they added admin approval.

I had an issue with clicking on posts in reddit earlier. Perhaps give it half an hour.

No luck. Maybe some r/aoe2 admin blocked me from posting or put auto delete function if the title says “Persian Architecture”.

Back when I still had a Reddit account, I got blocked from a subreddit for a really stupid reason. Can’t remember what it was, but it was really dumb. Don’t be too upset. Reddit is braindead and an echo chamber.

I can still comment though.

Try posting a different topic. See if that works.

Now there are two so I deleted one. Maybe they added admin approval.

Like a Hun without an horse, like goths without sacking a city for more than a month, like the Roman empire without Rome… Oh wait

Although also the pope:
“Please help me, I’m into your empire”
Byzantine emperor:
Umayyad noises
Charlemagne:
“I’ll help you then if you say I’m the Roman empire”

Meanwhile Lombards:
“I’m Italian now”

The arches high, the domes so grand,
That speak of distant, storied land,
A fusion rare, a blend so fine,
Where cultures meet and worlds align.

Without these echoes, soft and clear,
The past loses its charm, its cheer,
A grand design feels incomplete,
Without those echoes so discreet.

A tapestry rich in vibrant threads,
Weaving tales where legends spread,
Persians without Central Asian grace,
Are like a symphony without a base.
