Great job Q as allways, thanks again!
Is the latest version (4.0) compatible with RS 2.6?
Yes it is.

Haha I noticed it wasn't really compatible indeed. But I reinstalled my submod after installing RSIII so I also didn't notice that you changed every screen. Really nice! I was trying myself to add an extra I, but that's not doable. If you ever need, I'll be willing to give the original Photoshop files so you can edit/make more stuff.
Psshh... I also added some shadow to the loyalty icons so they're even better visible now.
Please do not hesitate to suggest something. I am always eagerly to improve where I can.

The UI graphics for Romans both for campaign and battle aren't included. But I have a reworked version that's gonna be in v3.1 I believe =).
Dvk didn't also include UI additions such as (red) buttons, green leaves around queues and most important: scroll texture which I believe is a significant improvement over old scroll texture .
I am currently requesting what can be improved so all content can be included for next update.
For all people here on TWCenter: please stop quoting large posts from previous messages or atleast put a "(...)" if the text is longer than 50 words or so. Thank you .
[v4.1]
- Corrected small faction icons for special campaigns as reported by dvk
- New event cards for Greeks
- Loyalty icons are better recognisable now (added shadows)
---
[v4.2]
- Revised 11 loading screens (added new quoation, tips and corrected typos)
Hopefully this is the last update before everything is implemented in RSIII .

Downloaded 4.1 and will check it out and put it in the finalized version of RSIII. Couple things you should know that are a problem...not with your stuff, but with RS2.5 and III.
Battlepage_01 and sharedpage_01 were originally put in the mod_0.pak (Roman UI folder) when RS was created because it was necessary in order to override the RTW files in the patch_0.pak. Otherwise, those two files could never get changed.
So ever since, if one of those is changed, I have to put it in mod_0.pak.
I will do so in the updated version of RSIII (which will include a number of corrections and fixes), but until then, they can't be changed.

Thanks =)!
Quintillius can you change Romans battle unit cards background on some more darker? Or the same cards as on campaning map? Now highlighted almost no differ from not highlighted. Hard notice in heat of battle. I wrote this request to dvk901 but forgot you great work will be included in final version.

You arrived at the right place .
Ha! I didn't even come to the idea that I can do this myself actually. Well it took a time to find the sweet spot of the textures, but I found it. It even took a large proportion of my time to pick a marble texture and paint it with the right colors -- the background shouldn't contain too many marble veins nor should it be too dark or too light. There's also that contrast between the selected and unselected cards which requires sufficient attention.
Well this is the result:
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
What do you think? Let me know. Criticism is welcome. The colour of the selected cards is culture specific. Greeks have a bronze touch, Romans red as always, Persian factions cyan and Egypt yellow. Textures are uploaded so you can download it instantly.
Just perfect.

Quintillius, I have two hands but give you three tumbs up ! Better than I expected, different colours are great idea. You are right person at right job! Sorry for disappionting your expectation of criticism .
+Rep.

Every image is grey halp
Eh can you post a screenshot? Is this the first time you start the mod RS itself?
Haha thanks. It's just battlepage_01, two cards below in the middle.
This issue probably slopped in at the release of RSII with the at that time 'new' UI elements.
Is it possible to disable campaign minimap borders with this mod? I hate those black lines and I much prefer it as a solid colour.
Quintillius, I hate to point this out to you, because it is a big problem that was recently pointed out to me. All of the building cards in the 'buildings' folder that appear in the building construction cue are the wrong size. They are all 64 x 51. This is the size for the cards in the 'buildings\construction' folder. The ones in the buildings folder are supposed to be 78 x 62. A new player pointed out to me that this size difference makes the cards look blurred and grainy. I never noticed it before, but yeah, they are too small.
