Revisiting an old project
-
@Frostion i can say i always found it difficult in past to tell diff between the boats. (color blind) ill take the pink
but ya flags work as well -
And the mighty Carthage is now complete. (Other than the city)
-
Here is the same shot but with a bunch of ships from some other nations
-
@Hepps I really Like the flags being on their flagships!
-
@prastle You mean the emblem? On the Sail?
-
@Hepps Yes looks great and identifies it well.
-
If ships have to bear coloured sails, would it not look better if the smaller boat also had the same colour of sail as the large ship? Especially if the purpose is to make them nation distinguishable.
Right now the ships with white sails seems to fit each other like pairs of ships, but when the ships for example belong to purple player, with both white sails and purple sails, they require the players to look more closely before determining who owns the small ships.

@Frostion the roundels seem to show that well and a ship with a symbol = capital ship
-
@Frostion Yah I'm still debating on whether to do both ships with the coloured sails or neither.... the emblem shall remain on the main sail to the Trireme... but the rest of the configuration is still under the review process.

Ok so I took a look at Rome Total War and it would be hugely beneficial to use all the map files from that to replace the existing one in 270BC. The two are identical other than RTW is roughly 30% larger... allowing for far more placements per territory and really improving some of the problematic areas such as Greece.
Here is a look at the difference...
Also started on the Parthian units... (since somebody mentioned the Horse Archer)...

@Hepps ya looked as well makes sense to me do em all
Have I mentioned lately I love u!
-
@Hepps The one drawback to the larger map is that the map graphics start to look grainy IMO. I'm guessing that isn't easy to fix.
-
@redrum Easy... no... achievable to fix... most certainly.
-
@Hepps what you forget is your version of doable is not easy to any of us
rock on bro emails kieth's
-
Parthia is almost done.... down to 2 nations left to do.
-
And Parthia is done.... the vaunted Cataphract of Persia is ready to ride clear across to the Mediterranean.
Now onto the Macedonians.
-
@Hepps needs dominant bows on horse archers
looks gd
-
And as a little sampling of how I am going to up-grade the new map visually...

@Hepps the WAVES the Sands!

@Hepps Love all the units so far. I'm not convinced on the map change though. Given that there aren't any territory effects, I think it would be kind of confusing to have different visual terrains. A good example is Napoleonic Empires where the vast majority of players prefer the non-topographic map.
