Ooh, I really like the B&W Cold War styling of that map. This Ukraine map could use a visual theme like that; I'm not much a fan of this flat pattern + embossed style that was popular on here a decade ago.Vlasov wrote:Okay. That makes sense. I should've read your first post more carefully.
In case you're interested, there's another small "Risk"-type site that has a Ukraine map... along with maps of Syria, Afghanistan, Libya, Iran, and other nations. Unfortunately that site is very slow.
Here it is: http://victorsunited.com/Map/List

Re: Ukraine v5
Actually that "Victors United" map IS in color, once the game starts. The territory colors are shades of yellow, blue, and green that blend together nicely. The B&W map is only for display.

Re: Ukraine v5
Ok, I think we need to revisit this map and finish it.
What are we waiting on here? I will help get this map to the battlefield.

Re: Ukraine v5
who will say that graphic requirements are dropped so low, in my time demand that map not be just ordinary map was so high.

Re: Ukraine v5
Well for starters the 'contested' bonus area should be a lot bigger.Unit_2 wrote:Okay, perfect I can finish this map! What are some ideas we have?

Re: Ukraine v5
I've been busy for the last few weeks. I am working on this, what other features do you want? So far I see a bigger contested area, what else?

Re: Ukraine v5
Huh? An "ordinary" map that is clean and well made is better than an abomination laden with photoshop effects. There are some really terrible older maps on here that suffer from some of that "let's slap a few effects and ugly fonts on this plain map so that it isn't plain." There are some gorgeous older maps too. But there are few of them that I would love to get at and fix because they annoy me.Qwert wrote:who will say that graphic requirements are dropped so low, in my time demand that map not be just ordinary map was so high.
This map looks nice so far.

Re: Ukraine v5
Bumping this. What feedback do y'all have? I am working on this map, and will provide an update soon.
