A few ideas and thoughts.

Post by andym »

I recently got the ACW BG series and am loving it.However,there are a few things that if included may make it even better.

1.As noted before the screen zoom function needs to be a bit higher,its difficult to see some of the Units on some terrain.Also its hard to distinguish what Formation they are at a glance.

2.It would be great if the units "card" could be displayed when the cursor hovers over it,it would speed things up and also allow the full screen mode to be enabled for the majority of the time.i.e to see whats in a stack at a glance.


Dont get me wrong,im not critisising,i judt think if these mods were possible it would make the game even better.

Excellent Idea....that would have to be a float over graphic...may be an alogirythm nightmare...but a great idea...I mainly play with Nato Units....then mix it up going to various 3d zoom levels
games:
1. AGEOD Blue and Gray
2. John Tiller's Battleground Series
3. Combat Mission: Beyond Overlord
4. Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
5. V for Victory Games
6. Silent Hunter III
7. Silent Hunter IV
8. Rise and Fall of the Third Re

I like the idea about hovering the mouse over a formation. As it is you have to hit space to bring it up, or look on the bar below.

HiHi

Andym, this is a, 'Just in case'

1.As noted before the screen zoom function needs to be a bit higher,its difficult to see some of the Units on some terrain.Also its hard to distinguish what Formation they are at a glance.

Have you checked to make sure the base toggle (brown rectangle next to the yellow star) on the tool bar is on, without the bases on it is bog awful to see units clearly.

All the best
Peter
