This ModPack will change some of the graphic files and sound files in Age Of Empires. It contains new town centers, houses, wonders, a Red Dragon and a new car.
This is just a small modpack. It is able to be installed easily since it has an install and uninstall file, which some modpacks don't. It has a really cool new wonder and wonder sound for Egypt (and Assy etc) but only a few other units. The new TC's are also quite cool, and give an insight into the beta and alpha version units that are still on the disk, and in the DRS files.
The mod pack is quite small, and the Magnus series modpack probably contains almost everything in this one and a lot more. The other units are a dragon, which flies kinda funny since the eagle glides (wings stop flapping, which looks strange). The better dragon is the hawk (small white bird which doesn't glide like that) and is available by typing king arthur with a map with some hawks on
I think the new car is available by typing bigdaddy only. It is white instead of black, and can be accessed only in RoR without the modpack. The other units are houses that change to trade workshops, accessable from the tradeworkshop template, or better yet the new one Andrea made.
The new wonder and sound is the highlight IMO, but overall it's just a small modpack so don't expect too much.

This mod pack replaces some of the graphics with graphics that are hidden in the game. I am sure at the time this would have been interesting but generally it doesn't enhance the game. Furthermore, the installation process will not work on modern operating systems.
Additional Comments:
You can achieve these effects by data editing (empires.dat) rather than creating a graphics modpack.
