Counter Art

[Glenn Saunders]

Does anyone know of any mods out there for *larger* 2D counters in the PC series?

If there was one thing I could change about the HPS games (and there isn't just one ;-), it would be to have an even closer zoom on the 2D maps, giving the same scale and numerical detail one gets on the 3D isometric counters.

Frankly and bluntly, there really isn't an excuse for the poor 2D counters in HPS games, not in 2010, when many of us enjoy 1920x1200 resolution on our widescreen monitors.

Well there is your problem - drop the resolution of your Moniter from 1920x1200 and the 2D icons will be larger.

Alternatively you can go to 3D and make sure you are on 3D COUNTERS - the icons there are larger and contain values like in borrd games. see image attached.

You may have 1920x 1200, but an awful lot of people don't and the game engine was created, I'll bet the screen resolution was 800x600

We've since increaed the size of many of the dialogs for higher resolution systems, but another level of zoom would be more than a slight bit of work and would be a very large update too.
