Downloaded the beta tonight. First thing I did was then download the original colors patch, and thanks for creating that. I don't care for the bright color scheme at all.

That's is going to be one of those love it-hate it things [;)] I do think a "somewhere in the middle" color scheme might be the trick.

So far no problems overall, beyond things already reported elsewhere by others.

Personally I like the old colors too, but with a more saturated Austrian color: the only difficulty with the old colors for my eyes was in distinguishing Spanish protectorates from Austria protectorates.

When I get around to it I'll average the two color schemes and put that up as a new patch.

I am concerned more about the colour of the infrastructure buttons of the provinces, that is a bit too dark. The national-territories colour is fine, although dizzily sharp at first sight. Btw, is there a way to make the first song - the new one - repetitive? (I have expected more to be added to the pack.)

It looks too dark on one of my monitors but on the others they look alright -- we find a lot of color balancing really varies from monitor to monitor. The graphics you mention (for province development) are found in Gfx/CityDevB.pcx and Gfx/CityDevB2.pcx. Here are two new versions of those lightened by 20% that you can copy over the dark versions. Lightening them by 20% makes them look washed out, in my opinion, but they are noticeably lighter now.

Lightened Province Development Buttons

Which file represents the original version? Excuse me for my noobishness.

Sorry, no time to really do any beta testing but FWIW the new colors look good to me.

Both files are needed to restore to the original version.
