Btw. What did you do with the airfields? Or better: why?

Yes I do, argghhhh !! Its quite a frustration.

It's Rodia's graphics file (so good) but I put it in the scenario specific. I pulled the tiles and after modifying saved them back to the scenario specific, while changing the originals to, for example, tiles_misc_bup.

Uh oh, should I have deleted the originals ??

So, you took his files, edited them and saved them to an other folder. Then you saved the original, too. The latter doesn't matter. That scenario specific folder is in AltGraphics? Is there a similar folder in /Graphics or any version numbering involved? Have you changed the scenario name in windows explorer instead of saving it from the editor under the new name or..?

Um, no edit. I had a map, and added Rodia's graphic file. It all work well, but I can't get rid of the stupid 'anchorage' graphic ??

I grabbed all of Rodia's excellent files and threw them into the new Scenario Graphics file.

Be sure that he's not the only one. ;)

It is:

tiles_misc.bmp
s_tiles_misc.bmp

There is no specific huge (zoom-in) 2D graphic for the bitmap graphics, so no H_tiles_misc.bmp

And if you want to do the iso 3d files, too:

D3_tiles_misc.bmp
s_D3_tiles_misc.bmp

But noone ever uses them anyway.

Microtiles_xyz are used by the micromap in the lower right corner and by the weather report map.

BMP or PNG - have you checked show file name extensions or whatever this is called in the US/engl. version in the windows folder options?

I see it:

I thought that might be what it was based upon. I have a copy of that. S&T 58 - September/October 1976. Long time ago.

Status: offline 		I've already posted this yesterday over at the German SI forums. A grey 'Axis theme' GUI.


(terrain in the screenshot from upcoming Classic Redux II Mod and not included in download)


It still has some glitches with neutralframe256.bmp, and i fear i cannot solve this problem. However i think it's a minor one and the theme pleases the eye (i hope so ;) ).

I added the Opart 3 fonts.ini that has been used for the screenshot as the mod might not look good with the standard fonts. Extract this file to the TOAW main directory (you may want to backup your fonts settings first).

Download from my dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/s/j37t5xye1vra9no/Grey%20GUI.zip

The download for the GUI isn't the GUI at all. It's another counter download. So there are two downloads for the counters and none for the GUI. :{
