Netherlands [Quenched]

[Kaplowitz]

Darker, but make the text white/

[boberz]

just legend text normal text wil be difficult to read in white

it may be better to have the flag straight ratheer than it looking like it is flying

[edbeard]

you didn't really 'fix' that line. you just made it thinner. If I'm the only one who has a problem with it, then just leave it be I guess. I just think it looks really silly there and nothing is lost without it.

As for the water, I liked the old colour better. Can you try out a different colour for the southwest land instead?

[Lone.prophet]

that can only i liked the colors of the conts kinda like the flag

[Lone.prophet]

ok another version

* line belgium/germany is now different
* sea has other color
* zeeland isnt the same as the sea color anymore

[boberz]

the unplayable countries stil have different colours i personally dont like it

[Lone.prophet]

its just a small difference

[edbeard]

this is good. Only two things I would personally change.

1. Decrease the size of the shadow for the title. I just think slightly smaller would go a long way. But, just an opinion.

2. Remove the line at the bottom. To me it just looks weird. It's the only one on the whole map and you don't lose anything if you remove it (also I don't think it adds anything). But, again just an opinion.

[KEYOGI]

I actually really like this new fresh look, good work LP. As usual, I have a few suggestions though.

The colours of Wadden Eilanden and Noord Nederland are probably a bit too similar to each other. I really like the new colour scheme, it works wonders. But perhaps a bit more purple and less magenta for Wadden Eilanden would help.

Perhaps consider reducing the size of the font for the territory labels. It's really squeezing you for room in some territories. Also, are you sure those army circles are big enough, they look a little on the small side.

I think the numbers in the legend are a little hard to read. It looks like you have an inner shadow on the number itself, so perhaps just play around with settings, but I really have to struggle to read the bonus values for Holland and Midden Nederland.

Those are the most obvious issues for me. You could perhaps add the black line along the river, but that's up to you. Also, maybe the use of faint textures around the map could give the whole thing a nice finish.

Again, I really like the updated map. Keep up the good work.

I hate this, but I recognize I'm in the minority, so beyond pointing out that I hate it I won't disrupt the progression of this map.

I much preferred the old version. I'll get over it though.

[AndyDufresne]

I'm somewhere in the middle. I don't hate the new version, but the map feels a little stale right now...but perhaps that's just because I was use to looking at the older one.

wow, this looks good, well done lone.p!


(no i am not back yet just looking)

[Lone.prophet]

Changes
+ little texture
+ better readeble numbers legend (i hope)
+ changed wadden eilande color > more purple
+ bigger army circels

[gimil]

The texture need to be stronger in every terr except the red continent. I'm also not a big fan of the texture you used in the dead area. To intrusive. It needs to be something subtle and consistent. Its to distracting at the moment.

[boberz]

its just a small difference

if it was deliberate then it is an opinion and feel free to keep it but if it was accidental i would prefer it to be changed but i dont want to make any more of an issue of it so this is the last i will say

[Lone.prophet]

Ok some texture changes and the dead land now has even closer colors



boberz hug me

[gimil]

The textures are better. But the map just doesn't stand out. IT needs a kick to get it going. Right now its still flat and boaring

[lalaland]

the army circles 'pop' to the front on this map, but everything else is too 2D. Maybe you could add shading or something along the coast so the edges of the map 'pop' as well.

[Lone.prophet]

when the map was 3d it wasnt good now you all change mind ?

[gimil]

Dont twist words, not cool. Just because people didn't like doesn't mean all aspect of the old version should be lost.

The textres are now fine. We didnt say 3D we said we wanted the map to have a bit more of a kick.

[Lone.prophet]

maybe it wasnt towards you?

[gimil]

i never said it was but people are here to help get your map quenched so show a little more respect.

[Lone.prophet]

maybe not every thing is meant as bad as you think

[KEYOGI]

I like the subtle textures, they work really well. Maybe doing something with the dead space will give the map that "kick" people are requesting. I'm not sure what exactly, but I wouldn't want to see the look of the rest of the map interfered with.

[Wisse]

nice textures, the only thing about them, i can't see any textures in midden nederland, only in twente
