Map Maker Resources

@beelee I'll do 2 samples... then you can review and sign the contract for the full set.

-
@hepps heh heh : ) Thanks Brother !
-
@beelee No problem... figure if the code developers can improve the engine... there might as well be a map developer who helps the map makers improve the maps.
Especially since I can't do what they do.
Otherwise I'm just a "cone de l'orange" 
-
@hepps rofl

-
@prastle You laughing at my cone de l'orange?
-
@hepps Si Monsieur "Pilon".

-
@prastle I knew you'd appreciate that one.
-
@beelee So went a bit of a different direction with it.
Thought we could create something fresh and new.
Let me know what you think...

-
@hepps Probably need a bit more contrast for the numbers.
-
@redrum Just a draft.
-
@hepps hey cool man ! Agree with redrum that the numbers need to stand out a bit more. Also would be cool to outline the original ones as well, for those that don't want to embrace change : ). People being conservative by nature : ) and all
-
@beelee Yes the numbers would be bolder and with a slightly stronger outline. Was more interested in whether you liked the concept.
For the PU markers themselves... you can have both in the folder... but you have to set a default set. So if you want the new ones... then you'd have them as a default. If a player wanted the old ones they'd have to unzip the game and edit the PU folder themselves.
So the decision comes down to whether you would want the new design as the default setting... or whether it is just a secondary optional set placed in the PU folder that every player would have to alter themselves to use.
-
@hepps right on. I'll probably just go with the original for the default but it's always nice to have options. Thanks for your time on this
-
@beelee Here you go... Rock nation... though I am truly not sure Triple A is ready for this.

-
-
@beelee This is how I would do the PU markers. But it is a lot of work since I would have to do it for every territory on the entire map.

So the question really comes down to this... am I doing this for the actual map... or just a special "Beelee" private stock black label version?
Because truth be told I am not in for revising the entire map just for a fun private version. This map has so many visual issues I hardly feel motivated to change anything on it without addressing everything... and I really don't want to address everything.
-
@hepps yea thats cool. Just wanted the PU numbers to look like the way redrum did the unit numbers. Thought the new images would just replace the current ones in the PUs folder. So yea, will shelve this request : ). Getting ready to add "Rock On Heppster" image : )
Thanks again
-
@beelee Well here are the same PU images just with slightly more black outline.

Not sure whether this is what you were looking for.
-
@beelee Here is the the same darkened outline with a cream filled center...

-
@beelee And here is the same darkened numbers without any fill or ring
