RE: Sneak Peek - phoenix - 12-11-2016

There are other options, other than mapmod, KoolKat. I don't use mapmod terrain tiles (because I can't stand those enforced hard hexes), just the Jison 'fix' that Strela did (where that is needed, depending on title) and you can see images of maps from 2 titles up above in this thread, in my first post - very different to the stock graphics.

Warhorse's mods are, in my opinion, as far as 2d goes (I'm sure his 3d is nice too, but I don't use 3d) really nice at giving a good naturalistic feel to the maps, whilst keeping things clear. Depends on the title, of course. Hopefully, he'll be getting them back up soon.

You can also use parts of Devine's work without mapmod, ditto volcano.

But it's true that Strela's revamp looks fantastic - clear, naturalistic, realistic (if he keeps the hexes optional and puts in an edgeless hex version) - so I too am really waiting for it!
