Making TOAW look like the (better) earlierr versions

Post by Pantsonfire »

Hi
I've been with TOAW since TOAW1 and Korea. Each new version seems to me to be less attractive - I guess I am an old fart - but the 2D 'counters' maps in TOAW4 are particularly unsatisfactory. Can I change the graphics on TOAW4 to look like an earlier incarnation of this wonderful game???
TIA

In short - yes. TOAW is highly modifiable visually. (And fairly simple once you understand how).

If you're STILL making Panzer IIs after seeing your first T-34... you're probably going to lose.

I seem to remember that the ability to revert to original graphics was included close to release, but I can't find mention of it in documentation.
