I like the new textures, but I think they need to be toned down a little bit.

That font is no good, maybe something a little more common. The title is now too big, it was better the previous update IMO. Lastly, the legend is quite dull and uninspired, can we have something to liven it up a bit?

The map is really starting to come along. Good work.

The map is looking better....I think this texture better than the previous ones. Regarding the names...try to stick away from 'script' fonts. If they are 'Half-Script'...meaning they look somewhat visually similar to handwriting but still have some 'keyboard type' in them...I think would work and look better. Right now, difficult to read.

Regarding the legend, I like the font there...but can you get rid of the orange border around the letters? Try a black or darker blue or some other color?

I'm still not a fan, still looks ugly to me though i'm not sure why... perhaps its the colors or the huge countries at the top and small ones at the bottom.

About the big one:
Can you pleeeeease test the ocean a bit darker and with the texture a bit softer? :wink:

The title is smal and the flag looks blocky now... This legend is much worse than the old one... That mill, then... argh! The font (legend) is not pleasant to the eyes, specially the numbers inside the shapes.

The small one is not ok. Problems due to the size reduction.
Just my opinion.

Lone.prophet · Post by **Lone.prophet** » Sat Jan 06, 2007 1:34 pm

than what is not ok about it?

CaraLucia · Post by **CaraLucia** » Sat Jan 06, 2007 1:43 pm

I don't like the font for the names, stange letters and hard to read.

There is not anough difference with the color of Zuid-Nederland and the color of the see and the rivers I think.

And the numbers in the legend are to small.

The rest to me is OK

Should i change the font?

reverend_kyle · Post by **reverend_kyle** » Sat Jan 06, 2007 3:22 pm

agreed - you could easily luck out and start the game with either bonus, which would give somebody a big advantage.

Lone.prophet · Post by **Lone.prophet** » Sat Jan 06, 2007 3:25 pm

wow all disagree on bonusses, well orange has 2 major border countries. i think it also ok for the red. well see whast other people say first ok?

yes change the font i can barely read it. FOnts must be simple, so that they can be read by everyone.

In response to the comment below. I do not need my eyes tested, i can read it but i would not want to read something in that font for pleasure. I would not play the map with this font because it would take ages for me to get used to where the territories were and i would not enjoy it. However if it was simpler then it would be easier to learn where it all is.
