{{#seo: |title=Vita Homebrew Games (Strategy) - GameBrew |title_mode=append |image=augustusvita2.png |image_alt=Augustus }} Augustus is a fork of the [[Julius Vita|Julius project]] that intends to incorporate gameplay changes. The aim of this project is to provide enhanced, customizable gameplay to Caesar 3 using project Julius UI enhancements. Augustus is able to load Caesar 3 and Julius saves, however saves made with Augustus will not work outside Augustus. ==Installation== Augustus will not run without the original Caesar 3 files. You can buy a digital copy from [https://www.gog.com/game/caesar_3 GOG] or [https://store.steampowered.com/app/517790/Caesar_3/ Steam], or you can use an original CD-ROM version. To run Augustus on PlayStation Vita, follow these steps ([https://github.com/Keriew/augustus/blob/master/doc/RUNNING.md#vita RUNNING.md]): *Ensure you have a jailbroken Vita. Detailed jailbreaking instructions can be found on [https://vita.hacks.guide vita.hacks.guide]. *Install the julius.vpk file using [[VitaShell]], like any other homebrew. *Copy all the files from a Caesar 3 install into a folder ux0:/data/julius/, so that you have the file ux0:/data/julius/c3.eng and more in your folder. ==User guide== Augustus changes are explained in detail in the [https://github.com/Keriew/augustus/raw/master/res/manual/augustus_manual_en_3_2.pdf comprehensive manual]. ==Controls== Left Analog - Move the mouse pointer Right Analog/D-Pad - Scroll the map R/Cross - Left mouse button L/Circle - Right mouse button Triangle - Simulate Page Up keypress (speed up in-game time) Square - Simulate Page Down keypress (slow down in-game time) Start - Bring up on-screen keyboard (useful to enter player name etc) Select - Toggle between touch modes Touch modes can be toggled with the select button. There are three modes: '''Touchpad mode (default):''' Single finger drag = move the mouse pointer (indirectly like on a touchpad) Single short tap = left mouse click Single short tap while holding a second finger down = right mouse click '''Direct mode:''' Pointer jumps to finger, nothing else '''[https://github.com/bvschaik/julius/wiki/Touch-Support Julius mode]:''' For multi-touch gestures, the fingers have to be far enough apart from each other, so that the Vita will not erroneously recognize them as a single finger. Otherwise the pointer will jump around. Physical Bluetooth mice and keyboards are supported. This was tested with the "Jelly Comb Mini Bluetooth Keyboard With Mouse Touchpad," and with the "Jelly Comb Bluetooth Wireless Mouse." The Vita doesn't pair with all Bluetooth devices. ==Screenshots== https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/vitahomebrews/augustusvita3.png ==Changelog== '''4.0.0 2023/12/28''' *Additions: **Added Highways, 2x2 roads that provide a significant speed boost but are only usable by destination walkers. **Added Custom Empires, a feature to allow map creators to create their own empire maps. Consult the documentation for details and examples. ([https://github.com/Keriew/augustus/discussions/734 #734]) **Added new icons for large quotas on the empire map **Added an option to display the projected movement path of walkers when placing new buildings **Added an option to display the area from which markets get their supplies **New resources: the engine has been reworked to allow more resources than C3 originally came with. **Added resource: Stone. Stone is gathered in stone quarries near rocks and used to construct monuments. **Added resource: Sand. Sand is gathered in sand pits placeable near water and can be processed into bricks and concrete. **Added resource: Bricks. Bricks are made in brickworks from clay and sand. Bricks are used to construct select monuments. **Added resource: Concrete. Concrete is made in concrete makers from sand. Concrete makers require water access from either well, fountain or reservoir. Access to water from reservoir speeds up concrete production. Concrete has to be made as needed and cannot be stored. **Added resource: Gold. Gold is slowly mined in gold mines placeable near rocks. Gold is used to build select monuments and can be converted into denarii in City Mint. **Added a new building - City Mint. City mint can convert gold into denarii or denarii into gold. **Expanded map editor functionality. You can now set what the favor loss is for late delivery, ignoring the request and the allowed time for late delivery. **Added: Scenario events. Expansion of scenario creating functionality.Scenario events are a set of actions that can be triggered if a set of conditions are met. Consult the documentation for details. (https://github.com/Keriew/augustus/blob/master/res/manual/README_map_editor_scenario_events.md) **Added an option to draw cloud shadows over the city. **Added a new building - Cart Depot. Cart depot allows for additional logistics and moving of goods based on conditions. User can set target resource, source and destination, and conditions for movement of goods.
