The Civ3 and Civ3PTW executable programs will always look in your /Art folder to try and find a two files to install resource graphics in your game. The two files are named:

resources.pcx
resources_shadows.pcx

and they must be matched together for the reosurces to work properly. Many graphics mods for resources (including the out of the box PTW version) just ignore the shadows that can be used to increase the contrast and ease of visibility of the resources.)

Since these files always have to be named the same thing even if they contain lots of different graphics options, the easiest way to keep track of the files is to store them inside a folder that gives a clear indication of what type of resources graphics are inside the folder even though all the actual filename are the same.

We have provided these resource graphics files to you inside your "gotm20" scenario folder in a folder called "resources storage". This folder comes to you complete with three subfolders of resources graphics that are labeled:
"gotm20 plain"
"gotm20 w letters smilies"
"gotm20 w letters smilies and bonus"

each folder contains a copy of the resources.pcx and resources_shadows.pcx files that will install and run that type of graphics in your Gotm20 game. The gotm20 game folder comes to you with the resource graphics already setup to use the resources with the high visibility letter blocks and smilie faces similar to the "shankyburns" resource graphics mod.

If you would like to switch to the plain but contrast enhanced resource graphics, all you need to do is open the folder titled "resources storage" and then open the folder titled "gotm20 plain" and copy the two pcx file inside. Tab back up until you are inside the "gotm20" game folder and open the folder titled "Art". Inside this folder paste in a copy of the two files that you selected and they will replace the existing "resources.pcx" and "resources_shadows.pcx" files and now you will be ready to play Gotm20.

All three versions of the resources graphics are available for you to freely use in your game and you can switch around and try the three different versions as much as you like. All three versions have been fully tested in the Gotm20-Spain game. It's your GOTM game, you make the choice of which graphics are right for you.

You must use one of the three supplied version of the resource graphics to successfully play the game. The special resources for the Gotm20 game will not work with any other Civ3 or PTW game outside of Gotm20-Spain.
