Sneak Peak New Graphics

[Arjuna]

Joe,

I thought that sounded like an Australian place name. Sounds a lovely place. Bet it's better than my office right now, no matter what the temperature, heh!

Be a man and do the Brindabellas in June. I have camped there in June. The water in the billy froze over night. The road out was frozen muud. I only had 2 wheels in those days and didn't fall off once comming out that frozen mud track.

Eh. I did it walking in November (must have been 1996 I think) and it rained, snowed, hailed, and rained in that order. Lots of fun

Cheers

If I can find the electical fault that is keeping my bike off the road at present I will take you for a ride in my sidecar on day Dave.

Its a river, that runs between Mittagong and Yerrandri. It flows into Warragamba.

Its situated in a beautiful wilderness area where I have done loads of bushwalking.

This year we plan to do a walk from Mittagong to Katoomba (about 4 days).

We are also in the early planning stages of a walk from the Brindabellas to Thredbo. About 10 - 14 days. Probably next April.

No need to walk it...

We have these neat things called cars.

Cars = people.

I like wilderness - preferrably with a broadband connection.

What is this becoming - Airborne Assault: Highway to the Back of Beyond? Hey Joe (I'm sure there is a song there somewhere;) ) try living in the UK - once out of town - wilderness and no broadband:mad: . Airborne Assault is one of the few games I can play online and even that is subject to chronic slowdown.

I like very much the new graphics. I think that you are doing an excellent work with them. However, in order to please everybody, I think that the better compromise is the to use the new (better looking) graphics as the default ones, but allowing the user to switch (by pressing a hotkey) to a graphic representation where the topographic level colors are plotted over the rest of the graphics, and in this way are visible without doubt.
What do you think about this proposal?

[Arjuna]

Thanks for your suggestion. Not bad. I'm sure we'll come up with something for everyone.

Just got the Demo yesterday. WOW! I havn't been been excited about a wargame since RTM seemed iminent some 4 or 5 years ago.

I like the improvement in graphics. I do have to agree with other posters that its hard to see the countor lines now though. But it is better than the Demo version graphics, and I can see the roads a little more clearly in the new screen shots. I wasn't sure if some of the lines in the demo were roads or borders or what (not having a manual kind of sucks).

You are at the very least on the right track with the graphics. Keep it up.

Request: Please Please PLEASE Do a COMPLETE manual (please). The Manual for Uncommon Valor was very lacking and forced me to come to the forums to sort things out. This is unacceptable for a game costing money, especially if it costs extra to get a printed copy.
