general gfx.... part 2

[acegogo]

Hey guys!!!

We need new splashscreens!!!! and all you TLR lovers could post them here and get to see them in game!!!!

So don´t be shy and post those screens!!!!

[Rusty Hammer]

If this is the wrong place to post this I apologize and feel free to delete this post. I simply had a thought about unit card graphics. A lot of the new merc units have pics of the units from far away. One of the best ways I've found to see units up close is to zoom in on them when they are on ramparts of some kind, I've been able to get some pretty good closeups. Just a thought, and I will get some screenshots as well.

Very Nice.

HH'I Like.

HHHow much????

lol sorry... had too.


But yes, they look beautiful.

[Lord Arne]

Overall they look good. But I think they might be a little bit to shiny. If you use a bit less dirt and maybe some other kind of effect to show the "Shinyness" rather then a lensflare, I think it would look great!

[Uryens]

Wow those are wonderfull! Great work my friend.

I kind of like the shinyness. I mean if these are used to represent the factions I think a clean look fits very well.

[Moobke]

They look fantastic, i also like the shinynes.

[acegogo]

cheers guys...

If anyone knows of good symbols to use with muslim factions I would also apreciate it...

shines yes.... shines no...... uuuuuuuuuhhhh, I like them aswell, lets get a few more opinions!!

[tornnight]

I think they look super! They have a nice gritty realistic feel to them.

[Lord Arne]

OFC they look good, its just that they are a bit to dirty and the lensflare looks a little out of place in my opinnion. I think they would look better if they weren't so dirty, then the lensflare would be more "realistic". But for the moment I dont think it would shine aolt if they were THAT dirty =). I wouldn't cry if they are like this in the finale verision, but I'm just saying my thoughts.

[acegogo]

the one for venice has been toned down.... and dirt has been twicked in all of them... so if you behave and not cry ..... i´ll post some more tomorrow...

P.S. don´t forget about ideas for the muslim factions people!!!

[Rusty Hammer]

Ace they look frickin awesome as my 5th grade students are prone to say. Your graphics really give TLR a polished look. Well done.

[Lord Arne]

Hehe, there is no offence towards anyone in the posts I make. I'm just saying what I think would improve them (from my point of view). *Points at his eye* See, not a single tear! *Bows depply before the allmighty acegogo before walking off again*

[acegogo]

Lord, I never felt offended... in fact I really appreciate pleople giving their opinion!!!!!
*bows back at Lord Arne*


Any ideas for muslim faction symbols?????????????''''

COMMMMOOOOOONNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Rusty Hammer]

Here is turkish coat of arms, don't know if it's too modern.



well that didn't work, allright stupid question, how to do you post pics in here, I mean I have pics saved as Jpegs, etc, but what does it mean post the URL for a picture when you hit the insert picture button.

(Rusty hides head in shame, awaiting a reply on how to do simple computer related tasks...)

[super-panda]

Well, rusty no shame. Even me I found that puting images here should be quite easier.
I personnaly used imageshaks, even If there is some bothering adverts around, you can upload images here quite fast.

You must go to the homepage, then use the upload, then take the url between the [], if you don't see exactly, try to watch the url of someone else uploaded image(like there are in the actions after reports, or the few I have made here), then you just have to copy the url so that the others can follow the url to see the image.

There is another way to make the images directly watchable on the forums, buttttt i don't know how for the moment. Tough I'm interested if there is a fast way, If it's possible, but if you need to reduce the image, I will stay with my way.

[acegogo]

you can also send it to me in a private message and attach it the normal way.



Another little preview

Scroll down to the faction you want, no images of holy people, lots of sybolism and extracts of holy texts.

look through for related books and see the use of shield pattersn if shown, us the see larger, or look inside if available, for instance http://www.ospreypublishing.com/titl...=P9646~ser=WAR
