Poll: Which looks better

Post by GaryChildress »

the Profile perspective or the 3Dish perspective. The profile perspective is probably easier for distinguishing different models of vehicles but leaves more unused space in the graphic due to the size used in ATG. The 3D graphic can be manipulated to better fill up the space but makes it more difficult to distinguish different vehicle models.

The perspective that wins the poll, will be the one I will use in my next set of graphics that I'm working on.

I think that I like the profile better.

Or maybe something approaching the angle that ATG has now. Forward facing, slightly to the right or left, but more level.

For the most part, I'd like to fit them in the on the terrain picture or something like it. That kind of helps the player know what landscape the units are in. Although, that isn't absolutely necessary since the hex info window shows that.

Like I said, I do find the DC layout to be nice.
