Better terrain colors? - dragonslayer2001 - 01-24-2016

can anyone advise on display mods to change the 2d map colors so you can see terrain differences better without having to use the hex contour tool?

There is a little too much "blend" in the colors and on my monitor it is very hard to see much difference at all in changes.

Playing Austerlitz at the moment.

Thanks Helmet Wink

Over at the SDC, there are two really nice NAP art mods that I think make it easier to read the maps better.

The first art mod  is for Bonaparte's Peninsular War, which is my favorite map art mod.

The second NAP art mod is a generic art mod that was designed to be used in any NAP title.
