i also think the font is a bit pixely

The font is vector, so I doubt the pixelyness and I myself don't see it. There is an outer glow with some noise attached because I like the look and that might be what you're talking about.

every font is vector

but this one seems pixely to me, i can zoom in and take a screen for you if you want proof?

I suggest you lower the bonus for centre.

Well its like an easy-to-conquer asia right now, with an ausralia right next to it. That's a bonus of 8 with 3 territories to defend.

I agree with unriggable on this one.

[b]every font is vector [b]

I'm aware.
I'm pretty sure zooming on anything makes it look pixely....

Also, I agree with keyogi and unriggable it will be changed to 5 does that work for you guys? or should we go as low as 4?

Posted: **Thu Sep 06, 2007 6:35 am**

5 not 4 if you really want to lower the bonus.

i'll update the xml when a clear conclusion is reached.

your problem.

Why can't I see your map image???? I can see everyone else's.

Posted: **Fri Sep 07, 2007 3:05 am**

this is using gimils notched edges thing and with the changed bonus(I think I got that changed on this update if not it's the next one)

As for the font wisse, switch to a 19 inch CRT it looks great on one of those.

Posted: **Fri Sep 07, 2007 7:36 am**

The black outergolw is far to dark on the legends. take the opacity down a notch to two. And the font is to bold and strong. Either take that opacity down or reduce the boldness a little.

I think it will be a great map, although, just to be picky a number of area names seem to be crossing over their borders (Pyrenees, Finestere, Nievre to name 3) and some others could do with some centering.
But looks sharp.

Posted: **Fri Sep 07, 2007 9:02 am**

ok looks good to me

KEYOGI wrote:The map's starting to shape up quite nicely. I don't have time for a detailed look, but something that is quite obvious to me is the placement of territory labels. For example Pyrenees, Garonne, Tarn, Ardeche, Mayenne. There's others as well, but perhaps see if you can better place the labels to not crowd the borders when it's not needed.

Posted: **Fri Sep 07, 2007 5:26 pm**

ok ok. I guess I'll do that now.

Posted: **Sun Sep 09, 2007 12:21 am**

I understand you want to keep the english version of the area names, but for the territory names it's just typos:
Haute Vienne, Cote du Nord, Pas de Calais, Lozerre are the correct ones.

Posted: **Sun Sep 09, 2007 2:44 am**

Is this better centerwised?

I'll fix the typos.

Posted: **Sun Sep 09, 2007 11:00 am**

There's no E in Cote du Nord. Or S in Hautes Vienne.

As far as centerization, I think Cote du Nord should be a little farther right.
