Not yet. Most if not all of us would like to see the new graphics.

Graphics: one of the most difficult thing to do to please the majority. Just hoping they are clear enough for my eyes.

I don't really care other than with broken rail...in most scenarios/graphics it's almost impossible to tell with a quick look.

I'm using a graphics mod that I got years ago from somewhere and my busted bridges show up pretty well.

Here's the damaged bridge files from my AltGraphics directory. Just rename the file as a zip file and unzip it.

If you would like to speculate on what is coming, I have found this site.
http://www.cogwheeldesigns.com/

Check some artworks there. I am sure new graphics will be nice.

Its not really a complete graphics overhaul i want or even expect to see when we get some screenshots but i do expect the god awful font to be sorted out and things in general made to look cleaner with better definition ect.

Agree for a better interface. This seems already planned in the feature list by the way.

I only hope the graphics are compatible with Microsoft Paint. That way I can easily make any changes I wish.

Check out paint.net. It's excellent freeware and vastly superior to MS paint. It's a complete graphic manipulation package.

Flashpoint Campaigns - Red Storm Rising - great game and very well supported by the developers.

Yes, this is from Flashpoint Campaigns. Sorry if I had any confusion, it was just to show an example of how great graphics could enhance user experience. This is not a TOAW IV screenshot but just hoping great graphics like this would show up.

Sure, something like this is what I hope TOAW4 will look like.

+1, one of the best wargames.

If you have a question, Capn Darwin (one of the developers) quickly answer this question.

Back on the screen shots topic, when I see this kind of feedback for another game, I can understand people are afraid to show them:
http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=4113862

1998 - 2016 incredible how this game has not been replaced. So, let's wait and be patient. Perhaps the beta testers could say on a scale of five if they like them (1-poor // 5-excellent)? Is it against the signed NDA to express an opinion?

Cheers

Beta Testers are to reserve negative comments for the developers and are not to express negative comments on the public board.

You should also be aware that the Beta Testers are not fully aware of what is going on. For example, we have seen some work in progress on the graphics, but do not know what the final product is intended to be. The main purpose of the Beta Testers is to test stuff so that time is freed up for the coders to code.

But of course those are not beta screen shots but from screen shots from the released game.

And wouldn't you want to know BEFORE the game was released how well the graphics would be received? All that game shows is that a newer game does not necessarily mean better graphics.
