Hi everyone,
We wanted to let you know that we're moving the Matrix Games forum to a new address on
Monday at 11:00 AM EDT.
The current forum at
https://www.matrixgames.com/forums will be relocated to
https://forums.matrixgames.com.
There will be a short
downtime of about 15 minutes during the move, so please plan accordingly.
- The Matrix Games Team

Will links work to this new place? That is will they be rerouted?

Is there a way to make the text bigger?
Everything is noticeable smaller than on the last forum.

Check your browser settings. You may be able to zoom the entire page, you may be able to have a different font size, or even do both of those.

This is what I get when I try to post:
- MATRIX new forum posting problem.png (49.16 KiB) Viewed 2042 times
It does get posted but I would have to reload the page to see it.
Also, when I refresh the page with the links to the threads, it shows that there is a post that I have not yet read. Actually, it is the post that I had just made. Edited to include this picture:

It's quite a colossal work. It has many thousands of items.
It's remotely similar to AE. But much more detailed.
Both in terms of building ground units and scale.
It's not easy to capture the political (ideological) side of SCW.
But still, it's somehow visible there.
True fans of the AE engine shouldn't hesitate for a second.
I hope I won't reveal any secrets.
But it should mark the beginning of a new game series.....

On the old site, the icon at the front of the thread identified whether I had posted in that thread or not. No such indicators any more. I can't tell which threads I've posted in now.
Edit: And let me add that there's no indicator for this thread, now that I've just posted in it, either.

Not for me on files over ~1 MB. Below is the error I'm getting (FYI, the graphic file uploaded below is 269 KB).

Not sure if this is by design or not but looks like the current limit is 1 MB vs the stated 10 MB. I had to save my png caps as jpeg and, in some cases, "chop up" the graphics to get them under 1 MB to be able to upload, post and continue my AAR.
