try using a darken or multiply blend mode.

not guarenteeing it will work, but it's worth tampering with.

no that doesnt work thnx though

anyway have a new version

with a nice mill and a bit darker color



what you think are the colors better or should i change back and does the mill fit?

I like the mill, but try to remove the shoadows of the army shadows, its weird.

i like it

i don`tand you should listen to your brother

I don't like the shadow either.

The windmill looks good.

I think you should experiment with making the whole continent roughly one color as most maps do that it seems.

The textures show through nicely now..

Your water texture could be more wavy.

lone lets first see the map with armys in it, then look if it does look good and then consider if it mst be changed or not

What is the 'Vlaamse Leeuw' doing in the Netherland map?

that's the dutch lion, not the belgium one...

didn't know there was one...thought it was the 'vlaamse leeuw' and the 'waalse haan'...didn't know the netherlands also had a lion

first time I've looked at this map in probably six months... am I the only one who can't figure out where the seventh bonus region is?

i think u just miscounted, cause i see 7 bonus regions.

It's my eyes then, because I can only find six... am I the only color-blind player in the Foundry?

Is it the five islands at the very top that you are missing, oaktown?

Nope, I picked those out just fine... I can't say for sure, but my guess base on the bonus structure is that the Utrecht region is blending in with all the zones around it... and I don't know what Veluwe is supposed to be a part of.. is it neutral?

Thank heavens for the greasemonkey script... without Bob I wouldn't be able to play this map.

Ah! Utrecht and Biesboch are their own continent. Everything east of there is a separate one.

lone.prophet...hi...this is the first time i've looked at this map...been kinda busy!
It is looking great and i like the style...however some things concern me....

* could you be so kind to advise if you are still running the poll, it is set to run forever....if you are going to continue it, please post the images for the bridge choices on page 64 or therabouts so people can vote and not have to troll back so far through pages that are hidden behind the dots... i would like to have a say and vote unless this issue is finalised.
* also i am very conscious of the fact that map developers should take into consideration some issue surrounding the colour choices made for the colour blind after this issue was raised in several of my maps. have you checked these colours on your map with any of those palettes for the colour blind....some of the colours from the northern regions come very close to being almost the same.
* don't be offended by this question; the colours in the flag...are they correct...or is that a very dark tone of red used deliberate...i ask this because i think the dark red on the flag clashes severaly with the reds in the legend.

From http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/nl.html

On 19 February 1937 Queen Wilhelmina decided by Order in council that: "The colours of the flag of the Kingdom of the Netherlands are red, white and blue." In 1958 the colours were defined more precisely as bright vermilion and cobalt blue.
Source: Nederlands vlaggenboek: Vlaggen van Nederland, provincies en gemeenten [sie62].

could you have a look at this please, and let me know your decision...as i feel the top "red" is not correct, and i will stand corrected if necessary.

i am sure you can delete that poll, its about something that is done a long long long time ago... called page 19

i like the old version better...

Well, I notice you didnot do anything with my good suggestion to focus on a Netherlands map of the 1670's (battles with france, england, german bishops, Austrian Habsburgs, Spanish).

Now it (still) looks an AWFUL LOT like the existing Benelux map.
Worse still: the sections in non realistic provinces is also VERY SIMILAR.
Why the hell is Zuid-Holland vivisected in many small parts, but North Holland isn't ?
Why is Utrecht even more split up, and Friesland ITSELF is part of a monstrosity up north ????
Why dont you have a separate Brabant and Limburg provinces ??

Why-why ?

Despite the nice coulours, you didnot give much effort into mapmaking.
Be it for the realism, or be it for improving playability/balance of gameplay.

"onvoldoende"

^^ dont get your point?

I think you may need a blur on a lot of the small map borders. They look scratchy, for lack of a better word coming to mind for me at the moment.

Hallo Lone, first of all great map. I like it at the beginning. Can't wait enough to play someday on it.

And what about the words of Coleman:

Hij bedoelt dat bijvoorbeeld de grenslijn tussen Overijssel en Drenthe happert oftewel de grenslijn is niet een vloeiende lijn, maar op het oog lijkt het of er in deze lijn happeringen in zitten (hapjes eruit).

Ik hoop dat je nu een beetje weet waar ze het over hebben. Maar in een woord, mooie Hollandse map

Above just the Dutch translate for Lone about the "blur". and the best wishes for his map.

Grtz
