Yekaterina Posted May 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2021 My opinions after testing out git version of A25 on 12/5/2021: 1. Very good graphics improvement, very sharp and well optimised indeed. 2. Please change the model of the berries. They are still difficult to spot amongst the green background. If the artists @Stan` @Lion.Kanzen can make berries mostly blue or red then that would be much easier to see. 3. Would be great to see some more campaigns added. 4. Tutorial could be more helpful if there is a cavalry unit involved, and if we start with a noob-friendly civ like Britons or Romans. Spartans are OK I guess but Syssiton and Skiritai commandos might confuse some nubs, and they are hard to master. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yekaterina Posted May 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2021 I wouldn't mind if you just put a single blueberry there to represent a patch of berries. A model of blueberry I will make one in Gimp so you know what I mean I really wouldn't mind it looking like this, because it is easy to see, which is the most important thing! 1 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, so it would be over my dead body. I have an idea that might work, without much extra work. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palaxin Posted May 12, 2021 Report Share Posted May 12, 2021 In the long term, what about a "resource hotkey" which toggles between normal view mode and a "resource view mode" where resources are highlighted? That would combine both realism and visibility... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would save so much CPU and GPU processing! We can add it as a graphics option for intense games 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yekaterina Posted May 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2021 (edited) This means we can have more intense 4v4 on giant with pop limit 300! I am already excited just imagining it! Who cared about good graphics when you can have performance? Edited May 12, 2021 by Yekaterina 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like a model which is very obvious from the green background. Also the chickens can be bigger as well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yekaterina Posted May 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2021 What about we make a compromise here: 1. Use the pink fruit trees as the starting berries resource 2. Use sheep instead of chickens because they are bigger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion.Kanzen Posted May 12, 2021 Report Share Posted May 12, 2021 I see you discovered our secret world. Give me something realistic ... We can also try to make a new type of berries or add the old actor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizaka Posted May 12, 2021 Report Share Posted May 12, 2021 I like the sand-color that makes the berries stand out. IMO, as long as there is some color differentiation between "map green" and "berry green" it is visible. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alre Posted May 12, 2021 Report Share Posted May 12, 2021 (edited) what switching some toggle, like pressing f6 or something, a pink square, or anything visible for that matter, appears under all animals and fruit trees/bushes? edit: just seen stan' work, very good! they are not only visible, but also very nice Edited May 12, 2021 by alre 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
