[i]what would glanru like tho?[/i] [spoiler][img]https://i.ibb.co/TqKJ8k4m/Trials-00.jpg[/img][/spoiler][/quote] I delayed to mention my new impressions on the gray frame... This map was grayish on purpose since the beginning of its developpement. I think Dima's version is not bad, but the frame should keep its original wood color, or anyway it should get some color of some kind. The darkness, the 'nigh effect', they are cool, but we can't have the whole image [u]all gray[/u]. Probably that was the original design by Glanru: an almost gray map contoured by a thick wood frame. Now the frame turned metallic, sort of cast-iron color. Initially I was positive about it, but then I changed my mind.

I actually didn't even notice the new grey frame, I thought the frame was just ommitted. I like the colours

I like that second version with the color much better than the first. Nice work

The colorful version without frame is mine, it was just a try, I showed it to Dima before he started this thread and he followed my suggestions aboout white dots and town circles. My colors are nice indeed, but there are plenty of graphic things to fix, Dima did a more professional job and he decided to make the map grayish and dark. Travelling to the West at that time was pain, suffer and even death, so I can understand Dima's style, it's thematic in the end. [ I recommend to watch the miniseries [i]"1883"[/i] before playing this map! I enjoyed it very much. ] I'm open to any solution, I proposed the dark (current) version with a wood-colored frame. I could try to see how it looks by myself but I'm busy right now.
