Weird problem with region borders

[Sar1n]

For some reason, this happens with several mods. I have multiple installations of RTW with various mods, and in some (I haven't figured any regularity in it so far except that those are newly installed mods), region borders look weird. Here's how it looks normally:


And in some mods, I get this:


All mods use same .exe (ALX). I have no idea what is going on....

I really don't see the problem?

Personally, I don't I think the faction colors on the borders are in the descr_sm_factions.txt and the size of the regions themselves are in the map.regions.tga and anyone can edit them to their own taste including released mods.

If you don't see it. The problem is that in some mods, region borders seem thicker and are not lined by secondary faction color. Also, sometimes they are visible through fog of war.

because the mod set the primary and secondary colors the same in the descr_sm_factions.txt. Check it out in Notepad

Game engine and something we have no control over.

Nope, the colors are set properly. I just checked. Something else....

If the boundary between two regions is of the same faction, they would be the same color and look wider.
If the boundary between two regions are of different factions, the secondary color governs this and if they sre the same color or close, you may get this effect.

I have also noticed over the years more medieval2 now since I have a mod going that terrain and height differences can play with the eyes, too.

All these are plausible but still not the only ones.
