The Most Beautiful CAESAR III Has Ever Looked! - Augustus 3.0 Released & Mod Decorations

[@GamerZakh]

Augustus 3.0 is now officially released! I know I went over the gameplay mechanics last time, but just look at this stuff. I'm not great at making perfectly beautiful cities but I can't wait to see what people do with these. Want to buy Caesar 3 (or other games) AND support this channel?

[@giovannigio3764]

Looks exelent, only why build roads inside if nobody can enter the park. (There is no entrence.)

[@mechanism8]

I hope they make it so there appears to be settlers using the gardens (maybe when there is water coverage or within x distance from housing/temples/etc). At least it gives an incentive to build beautiful garden cities.

[@username_62kcs9el0]

It's amazing that people are still making improvements to this game that is over 20 years old. This was one of my favorite games growing up.

[@thiannadiannley4494]

The Augustus people should seriously consider designing their own city builder. I bet it would be much better then other recent entries into the genre

[@erwinjohannarndt4166]

Im sure this is where they are going, this is a way to get experience, to start a game or get hired into it..

[@sapiensfromterra5103]

If they decide to do one in ancient Greece or Rome and use 3D renderings(even just for creating 2D sprites a la AOE 1 and 2) I would actually do some modelling work for them!

[@DevDreCW]

@@sapiensfromterra5103 Are Caesar 3 models 3d? I'm guessing they must be if they can be seen from various angles. Are they just exported at a low resolution as sprites?

[@mazdrpan4099]

@@DevDreCW Its just 2d sprites.

[@matthewsteele99]

​@@DevDreCW from what I understand they may have been 3d models that were turned into 2d sprites

My god, I am so hyped for your future Episodes, this is straight up Anno 1503, Caesar III style. This really is a game aging like fine wine!

[@Kelgrafar]

They keep with the old art style so well..

[@owainevans89]

That music gets me every time. Transports me back to when I was 9 years old playing this

[@Karlthegreat84]

Yes, Impressions Games was the most appropriately named game company ever. The Pharaoh and Zeus tunes will never be leaving the brains of those playing them. On a funny sidenote: I've found the orders being barked by the army units in at least 2 other places. One being a giant 15 episode or so documentary on the entirety of the Roman era.

[@d1349h]

So beautiful - You can do gardening like in Emperor :)

[@schoenbaard]

The gradual and organic development of this game is amazing! It's actually developing into a new game!

Big respect and big thanks to the guys who are working to do this, now i am going to start caesar 3 from the beginning again play through, this look's amazing.

[@Centurian128]

I's. So. Beautiful!

[@digitalmonster6049]

Your enthusiasm about this is selling the mod update all on its own. Cheers!

[@leodefine86]

That looks awesome!

[@emlystrange13]

The new Augustus has so much potential. This is so exciting! Someone should do a city challenge trying to recreate Villa Hadrian with all the new decorations available

[@lauretivan6231]

Dear god this is awesome ! 3.0 already ?? can't wait to see more ! maybe you making a beautiful city or a full campaign with full decoration would be nice ! much love and thanks for covering news changes on augustus !

Finally ended my Vanilla-Vanilla run. Looks like a bright night for mods

[@0lympy]

Perfect!!! Waiting impatiently for the next episode of the forced walker playthrough with these additions!!!

Great video!! Imagine that, me sitting here watching your cool review of Ceasar 3 mod, with the same grin on my face as you ........ 22 years later!!! First release was 1989! I feel like one happy dinosaur (-ess).

[@jye2785]

[@silverstringsgia]

I wish Emperor had such mods. These look amazing and make the game look fresh.

[@GamerZakh]

Yeah all the games need this really. Maybe eventually someone will do it, it just takes 10 years haha, so someone needs to be really passionate.

[@taruholic90]

Setup imediately!! Thank you very much from Korea.

[@jankral2221]

Those colored marble columns and pavilions will surely go nice with god temples... maybe doing some one colored dedicated areas for one god... red Venus grand temple with red columns and pavilions and maybe more smaller temples on sides

[@LZentertainments]

Man this is cool. I have exams but now I want to play Caesar III

[@V4zz33]

Wow, well done!

[@nunoconceicao2877]

It looks lovely! I'm having issues with crackling sound but other than that, what a lovely game this is turning out to be!

[@penwithoutasword9459]

This looks great, zakh!

[@cadurevival6702]

That’s so beautiful! Sadly the Caesar IV don’t have a good optimization to add mods like this, because the 3D gaming fits perfectly to something like this

[@Sammyconray]

Damn that looks very good

[@JanZizkaMetal]

When the Knights Who Say Ni demand a shrubbery, you can ask if they want it to be sunlit or shaded. Amazing!

[@evilscientistrecords]

It feels a bit like "Caesar III meets SimCity".... So, amazing :D

[@schoenbaard]

Embrace the obligation to build a forced walker city worthy of these new features and aesthetics, Zakh!

[@tntaclegrape]

15 minutes of decoration building later: "Hmm, you ran out of those funds quickly. Try to make these new funds last longer!"

[@Nickelodeon81]

Pah!

[@stabysfavorites2080]

Hehe, yes decorations should be free. :)

Would you consider making a short tutorial on how to install the mod for some of us less tech savvy folk?

[@GamerZakh]

Yes I'm trying to get to that this week. Been caught up with a few things this last weekend.

So i actually have unrelated question here. Is the zoom option ingame or mods? and the more important question anyway to zoom in pharoah? :P sry, just discovered your channel

[@GamerZakh]

Zooming was added with Augustus modding, it was one of my highly requested features and they somehow figured it out. No zooming in Pharaoh unfortunately. Maybe in the remake?

What a great game!

[@Mirpurmad]

since I discovered your channel and started following your Caesar 3 series I have been looking for my original Caesar 3 CD. and hope I find it. although I am not sure if it will run on windows 10 or 11

[@GamerZakh]

It's hard to say with old CDs, and because windows keeps changing, it could work but then after a windows update it stops working. That happened to me with Black & White. It installed and ran fine on windows 10, then there was an update and windows couldn't recognise the software anymore and I couldn't even uninstall the game.

[@K2813]

I saw in the patch notes for this update that there is a cheat to unlock all buildings - any idea what this is?

[@tedph1849]

Augustus is actually caesars son

[@robertreid2931]

Honestly, I'd be content if all future improvements only added aesthetics like this.

[@GamerZakh]

They have been adding even more decorations with the newer updates, so that's been coming along with the new mechanics.

[@detox5454]

do you just extract the assets to the Augustus folder?

[@hithere8753]

This is very cool. Parks were arguably the ugliest part of Caesar III.

[@fearan9406]

1:30 IT PEES !!! Prasie jupiter

[@Nickelodeon81]

I'm guessing those all work at boosting desirability?

[@GamerZakh]

Yeah they do, and desirability helps with individual house sentiment now too, so it can prevent riots.

[@Apophis324]

But when you were playing Emperor you were putting in effort to make your cities look great, so why not do that with Caesar III as well?

[@navinkumarpk86]

Why are they so blurry though?

Any image would be blurry if you zoom in. Unless you're asking why their resolution is like that? In which case it's made to match the existing graphics. Everything in Caesar 3 is kind of pixellated.
