SB Graphics Question

[Warhorse]

For reasons many cannot understand, having bought these games with a certain graphics set, JTS decided to 'update' all the titles and make the 'top down' graphics set not only the default, but really the only graphics set you could use, with no possibility of reverting without errors. Many, like me, went ahead and pressed the update button without realising there would be no reverting, on the basis that everyone would need to be on the same version for PBEM play, and hence we're stuck with graphics we didn't want or ask for. To make matters worse the graphics don't really distinguish between leaders and squads, weirdly. Newly bought titles now appear with the top down graphics too. There have been a lot of posts in here about this, but so far - aside from an abandoned effort by Warhorse - no sign that Rich is thinking of rectifying the situation officially.

I've covered this before, I was not aware, when I did the updates, that there was ever going to be any reverting back to the old way, no mention of it whatsoever. Consequently, with many additions and changes, the old ones don't work for the most part, I was going to try to make a set for each game so folks would have them, but it is a ton of work. I had asked for help, only a handful actually stepped up, so I dropped it, I have not the time to devote to it, am busy trying to make Squad Battles come back, and don't personally care for the side portraits. Adding to the confusion, somehow 3d was added into the games, without making sure the graphics were even available, so that now they are a complete mess, I had nothing to do with that, I tried in Eagles Strike to update the vehicle graphics, so if you have that title, you can see where I was trying to go with it. Too many of the other titles didn't even have 3d, now folks are complaining about the vehicles not showing correctly, the reason, wrong 3d graphic sheets, can't just add 3d without making sure it is in coordination with the 2d! I recently came into possession of the old 2d graphics for the games, however, you can't just toss them in the game and have them work, someday, maybe they will be available, I just can't do it right now.
