  • A bit of eye candy

    Anyone else notice something special about the lighting on the globe in the RoN main menu screen?

    Nice touch

    I just stared at it for a minute and I don't know what you're talking about. Maybe I just don't see it.
    Firaxis - please make an updated version of Colonization! That game was the best, even if it was a little un-PC.

      Ok, now I think I might see a human figure, but I also may be imagining things. The head is on the top right with the body extending down to the left.

        Nope, look again, and don't just stare at it, you have to do something...

          The mouse acts as a light source, and the light given off reflects off the globe. I noticed this the other night and thought it was cool.

                  Mine doesn't do what you describe, by the way. It must be a feature that my graphics card doesn't support. The game runs fine for me however - I have no performance or crash problems whatsoever.

                    There are THREE different main screen elements you can have: Mine is animated in-game battles in monochromatic. if I tone down the CPU grade in rise2.ini I get a static screen. So WHICH globe do you mean?

                      There's a "Rise of Nations" globe on the right hand side, I think. That's where it happens
