Wow, that looks impressive. Think i´ll use it.
What i don´t like so much are the new fortifications and also the cities.
Can´t see enough difference between and here i prefer the sharp location pics from the original.
But the terrain looks great. Congrats on this work !!


I have to agree with you on this one seille.
Nick has done some fantastic work on this mod, but I would like to see a different set of cities made for this mod before he closes the book on this one. I used the mod then went back to the original graphics for this reason. I really liked it too.
Hope your not offended Nick. this mod does rock.

Status: offline 		Anyone else having trouble downloading this mod?

I've tried to download it from the advancedtactics.org site several times using several different download methods and I always get an 'invalid zip file' error when I try to open it. It is also only a 4 mb file and according to posts here should be 8.

When I try to download from the site in Nick's post it always stops and then when I try to restart I get the 'file not found on server error' as that site (I think) generates a random file name on the server each download so you can't link back to it.

I'd really like to use it so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Darrell

Not that I'm aware of. I don't have any problems downloading any other files, including scenarios from advancedtactics.org.

If a dled file is only 4Mb, I think the dl has been cutoff/disconnected before finishing for whatever reasons, retry.

The mod works great but I replaced the new city graphics with the original ones inside Rick's 'real' folder structure. I looks very nice with the original cities! (No offence Rick)

I downloaded it, unzipped it to the bin folder, and nothing happens! How do I get these graphics to show up in the game? Since I'm new I'm playing small, comptuer generated scenarios while I try and figure things out here. So does this mod not work with those, or am I doing something wrong?

I dont have a firewall, the only thing i can think of is mabey the anti-virus software that i must use to be allowed on the school network i am connected to(just tried with this disabled, no dice). Anyway,i have not had any problems downloading other files in the past.

After more tries i managed to get one all the way to 7.8mb. Very strange.

Perhaps someone would be so nice as to email me the files?

I'm not running a firewall or virus software.

Status: offline 		I'm having wierd problems with this.  When I'm in the editor I see the full set of graphics mod changes; looks great but I replaced the cities and forifications with the original images.  That works in the editor as well.

I replaced the generic file with the renamed 'Real' master file.  I also selected 'generic' as the file for the scenario to use.

When I exit the editor and run the scenario it seems to be using a mix of images.  For example, forests, mountains and coastlines are in the 'Real' format, but plains (most of the map) are in the old default format.  I've even done a reinstall of AT today and the same thing happens after I add the Real graphics folder.  I'm 100% positive I didn't paste the wrong images anywhere.

Any suggestions?

It's a little closer. I see the file size as 8.4 mb now but it still only downloads about 3.5 mb before it quits.
