Unit Graphics Needed

[jim panse]

@ Patine: This is about the size what you were looking for?

[Patine]

Yes, that's perfect! Thanks a lot. Now, could someone please make me a good Soviet Embassy unit graphic, so I'll be able to complete the scenario? Thanks!

[jim panse]

Get me some pics or I shall try a generic building tonight ...

[Patine]

I'm afraid I have no pics available. Just try a drab Cold War Soviet embassy in an Asian city as imagery to guide you.

[jim panse]

I think I can come up with that building tomorrow since tonight is beer drinking time

Hasta manana!

[vodkakov]

Boy, was it beer drinking night last night... Beers and vodka, always a bad mix, but not at the time!

[vodkakov]

I was feeling bored, so I updated my Studies and Observation Group (SOG) unit.

[Patine]

@jim panse

Are you having trouble with that unit, or are you just incredibly busy? Please let me know, the suspense is killing me.

@vodkakov

Your Marine unit is great, save that it's a bit two narrow and thus leaves green lines on the sides when actually seen on the screen. If you could fix that problem, I'd gladly use it in place of what I'm using now. Your SOG also looks great, though I haven't tested its width yet.

[Patine]

@vodkakov

You're SOG is indeed too narrow, like the Marine. If you could please widen those two units a midgit, I'd be greatly obliged.

@ Patine: Sorry, some RL issues prevented me from posting earlier

Anyways, here is a Far Eastern Soviet embassy compiled out of fairline´s, curtsibling´s and nemo´s work. I hope this is what you are looking for!

[Patine]

This is perfect, jim panse! Thanks a lot!

[Patine]

Okay, guys, here's the playtest beta, if any of you (or anyone else that cares) could do the honors. I have yet to write an appropiate prosaic readme or introductory text (there will be one in the final version), but there is sound. It does use Kit Olson's map (with some modified terrain, including a Mekong Delta and a Tonkin Lowland) and his city locations (with several added), plus a lot of graphics from this thread, but the tech tree and Wonder concepts are mine. Note that the blue dotted line linking Hanoi to the VC Encampment through Cambodia and Laos is the Ho Chi Minh Trail, which reads as railroad (I have yet to modify the labels text), though railroad can't be built. Please let me know what improvements need being done (and what's a good idea). Thanks!

[Patine]

Here's the first sound file.

[Patine]

And here's the second.

[vodkakov]

Do you mean that the unit itself is too thin, and needs to be made fatter, or is it the lime green lines surrounding the box that are proving a problem?
