1:37:20 _"Why is Mars irritated?"_ He sees you building great temples for the other 4, so he's jealous😆

[@CodemanGames]

Your Caesar 3 videos are literally therapy for my soul been watching for years love your content keep it up 😊

[@GamerZakh]

Thank you! I'm really glad I can help in a small way.

[@Russoswiss]

The perfectionist urbanist in me twitches every time I watch Zakh set up his districts. And his God dumps. And then somehow it still works out more efficiently than my organic growth layouts. Ah, Caesar, the good old days spent in the vanilla version so many years ago.

[@mauer1]

you see its just more efficient to use culture and god dumps

[@SiewChion]

this is my favorite video game, glad there are people still plat it in 2023

[@Dilios_of_Sparta]

Cart pusher: "I'll tell you what--it would be quicker to push these goods TO ROME than to where I'm going!" Zakh: "Ok, ok... not good..." *Road making and management intensifies* Love your Cesar III videos, Zakh!

[@doczspec4502]

Hurray! 🎉 New map to check out! 😮

[@doczspec4502]

I am so excited to see the second part! I missed watching your city builds so much.

[@ro-rj8le]

thank you for another great video, Zack! I always enjoy so much of your Caesar 3 play throughs. A medicine to my soul

[@GamerZakh]

I'm glad you're enjoying them!

[@ShapeyFiend]

Nice one I was hoping you'd play some more of these.

[@GamerZakh]

There's a lot more on the way, so no worries there!

[@GummieI]

59:07 haha the 2 priests that got "stuck" on the stairs as you build the highway xD

[@Phantomsbreath]

Y'know what always got me in these? Why you can't just feed your people olives.

[@KingOskar4]

16:50 This... Is... NeRO Burning ROM 😂😂😂 also, a comment for the algo, so that more people can see this amazing map! I am gonna get my own copy of Caesar III someday😅

[@Naggstek]

I don't always take a dump but when I do, it's a god dump.

[@zorkan111]

1:38:26 "Red eggs" are radishes most likely. :)

[@perfectford133]

Try tomatoes, it is Italy after all.

[@zorkan111]

​​@@perfectford133omatoes don't have leaves like that. Also, if I'm not mistaken, tomatoes originate in Americas and haven't reached Europe until ~1500's.

My first impression was that they are pomegranates.

[@1Fresh_Water]

OOo can't wait for more of this!

[@naaahevers2093]

Love Caesar III video's!

[@GamerZakh]

Glad you're enjoying them! A lot more on the way too!

[@KODAKTIFVIDEOEGITIM]

Yesssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@cycklist]

Those trade routes are in places like India and Ethiopia. Super exotic.

[@Qwerty10254]

I love hearing the american voices of C3 people. I grew up with those in Italian so it feels new to me.

[@furnicutz]

They’re British 😊

Show?

[@gabrielzilki]

@@GamerZakh Sorry. "Show" in Portuguese that means something good or nice

[@GamerZakh]

@@gabrielzilki Oh thank makes sense! Haha thank you for explaining, I'm not too familiar with Portuguese.

Do you play "Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom" ?

[@GamerZakh]

Yes I have a completed playthrough on this channel: kzbin.info/aero/PLYVqUDxY6COjpD4bCNJabF8DZXVjzK_R2

[@turquoisemanturk]

@@GamerZakh That was suprising, nice work man.

[@mauer1]

22:00 does this road connection work he wonders. while i am screaming at the screen that you just need to look at the random firefighters running around on places where they couldnt be if it didnt. (also the road got lighten up when you placed them.)

[@blackhat4968]

What version of Augustus are you using to play this? It unfortunately been awhile since I have played Caesar III, but I don't recall seeing the "City Mint" or "Highways" the last time I played [about 6 months ago]. (Augustus 3.2.0)

[@CaptWolfman]

Is the walker preview a new update? I don't recall seeing that when I was playing yesterday? Or is that a feature in the options menu that I missed?

[@GamerZakh]

It's a new thing in the unstable build, you do have to turn it on in the options.

[@CaptWolfman]

@@GamerZakh Thank you. I'll have to take a look.

[@BackGrounder84]

Hey, can this map and also the other challenge maps be downloaded somewhere?

[@GamerZakh]

It's up to the map makers to upload them, I expect they'll show up on Caesar Heaven. 1 of the 5 maps for the competition is up last I checked. I think they're tweaking the maps based on competition feedback.

[@raykeezaa1150]

How did you get the walker preview? And the map objectives on the panel on the right??

[@GamerZakh]

The walker preview is an option in the Augustus unstable build. The extra info in the side panel is also an option, but you need to be at a high enough screen resolution for it to display.

[@poolfans]

Your furniture industry should be nearer to your housing

[@GamerZakh]

I could but didn't need to so I didn't

[@roberttaylor3594]

...so, I have the gold mines and the icon is a 4 tile blank square with one square being a roadblock icon.... and WHAT is the cart building?

[@GamerZakh]

That means you haven't copied the separate Assets folder. If you get the unstable build be sure to download the assets folder and replace it.

[@sandor8022]

I havent gold mining on augustus,neither highway ect,pls help me where I find them,thx

[@GamerZakh]

You need the get the unstable build which gets new features quickly. Don't forget to download the assets folder as well and replace that because the assets change with every update.

[@navinkumarpk86]

How do they place custom cities in the Empire map?

[@GamerZakh]

It's a new editing feature with Augustus. I'm not sure how to do it but they did make a guide. If you need help, beat to ask the devs on our discord.

[@Syncx100]

Hi, how do you do to see the path (the blue highlight on the road) when you're building (i.e, prefecture, market, etc)?

[@GamerZakh]

It's a new option you can turn on in the unstable build of Augustus.

Is there a second part to this mission?

[@GamerZakh]

Yeah it's here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/raPWeYqlhLKKopo It's all on the playlist too in order.

@@GamerZakh Thank You very much! I saw the title but wasn't sure if it is a continuation of this. Also: your horse won :) It was a one line message at the top before the Hippodrome animation.

[@nurkuselegantus]

Don't you need any workers near workplaces in Augustus? Is everything just global employment?

[@GamerZakh]

Global employment is an option you can turn on.

[@alessandrobelli8008]

Oooh god I hate desert maps! Everything catch fireI just won Carthago in the original campain using a fishbone block, it was a nice play Could someone tell me if Augustus work in the original campain? I would love to tell markets what they can buy! Only that to stabilize my cities

[@GamerZakh]

Yes if you use Augustus it applies to the campaign as well. I kind of see it as a New Game+ kind of thing haha

[@warriorvice]

Is there a link to these maps?

[@GamerZakh]

When they're uploaded to Caesar Heaven I'll include links, but it's up to the map makers to publish them.

[@Superazzola]

Hi. I've downloaded the version instable that have in map editor the button to custom map empire. My question is how i custom the map empire creating a city with name?

[@GamerZakh]

I'm not familiar with how to make custom empires, best if you ask on our discord. All the Augustus devs are there and so are a lot of map makers, they'll know how.

[@NordicSkadi]

How can you Build Workshops so far away from house. I always Get the „no employees live nearby“. Did this Get fixed in the Augustus mod? I Need to Get it. Still Playing the Original version.

[@GamerZakh]

It's using the Global Employment setting in the new options that makes the game work more like Zeus and Emperor. In Original Caesar 3, you just need to have some tents near your workshops.

[@NordicSkadi]

@@GamerZakh Good to know. Thanks for the quick response! Excited for the Playtrough of the new maps! :)

[@nuwach]

How do we get our hands on that map!

[@GamerZakh]

It'll be up to the creator to upload it. If/when they do it should be on Caesar Heaven.

[@cwayert]

Why am I getting all these videos about a game that was published nearly 3 decades ago?

[@GamerZakh]

Well the modded version was updated today.

[@cwayert]

@@GamerZakh Maybe I'll have to give it a go then

[@fealith]

how can i download the map?

[@GamerZakh]

I'm not sure if it's up yet, last I checked no. All these maps should be uploaded to Caesar Heaven at some point. I think some of the map makers are editing the maps based on competition feedback before publishing.

[@theraginggamer095]

right off the bat, 100 culture city, EWWWW. I personally have always hated culture spam in C3 (and this does apply to vanilla) due to how culture is handled in C3, and Pharaoh for that matter

[@GamerZakh]

Augustus handles culture completely differently. First it's rebalanced with new buildings like the tavern and arena. Second, culture buildings can be upgraded with desirability and doubles their culture score, so schools, libraries, theatres, and academies can all be upgraded. Third, monuments give 6 culture, so building 5 grand temples, a colosseum, and hippodrome gives you 42 culture by themselves. Basically on this map, with the super efficient forced walker block reducing how many culture buildings I need significantly (only 1 library and theatre/entertainment buildings for ALL plebs), I only had to build 3 extra theatres, 1 extra library, and 1 extra academy and I reached 100 culture. If I just had a second housing block, I wouldn't need any extra culture buildings at all.

[@theraginggamer095]

@@GamerZakh I forgot about the grand temples adding culture and didnt realize the colossuem and hippodrome added culture, that doesnt actually sound too bad in Augustus
