Map Facelift

Postby DiM on Sat Mar 03, 2007 9:31 am

there are a lot of great graphic designers around but in the game there are some really ugly maps. why don't people talk to the original designers and improve the graphics. i'm not giving any map names because we all them. :wink:

I actually like the brazil map. It's one of my fav's. Clean & Simple, clear borders & fun to play.

I suggested the same thing a while ago. I think a lot of maps could use some minor improvements, while some really need a big overhaul. It seemed most people were happy with the maps as they are.

you're a good map maker, why don't you contact the original map designers and propose them to improve the graphics. :P
it would be great.
