Re: Pick Flags + [mini-mod] WIP

Your flag-making technique is beyond reproach, and I really look forward to your finishing this mod when you have completely researched all of the individual flags. Flags that always drive me crazy when I work on this kind of mod (besides mistakes in Austria-Hungary and the U.S. which are really eas...

Re: Steam TYW Load Fails

Slitherine Support can probably solve your problem, but in the meantime, you might want to try this. First, uninstall the game. Second, update all of your drivers. (Modern computers have an ungodly number of drivers playing around in the soup, so the only reasonable way to do this is to use a progra...

Wrong image or tooltip text in interface

These are from the Grand Campaign in 1.043. The screen is in military mode. Either the graphics are wrong or the tooltip is wrong. http://i.imgur.com/4IZfSjc.jpg If you put the tooltip over a picture of a train, the text talks about riverine pool points. http://i.imgur.com/u8jkeZN.jpg If you put the...

Balance screen

In the non-Steam version with 1.043, the items needed or in surplus section of the balance screen do not always seem to update when you give an order to buy or sell something in a local market. This is not just a matter of the game function, because sometimes when it hasn't updated, if you close the...

Duchy of Milan: http://i.imgur.com/A2Eo3Al.jpg This is one of the few square flags that I can think of. The other one is Switzerland, which is always (and incorrectly) shown as a rectangle. The flag of the Duchy of Milan should not be confused with the flag of the city of Milan (a red cross on a whi...

Re: Stockpiled Supply Indicators

I've been playing around with the stockpiled supply images, but have realized that the tooltip needs to be disabled to get the full effect. I must admit not having looked at this in a while. Did you explain how to supress the tooltip as well as the number? http://i.imgur.com/GKaoR3d.jpg

Re: Adult purlieus

The new forum's spam defenses are worse than ever.

What the forum needs is some kind of timer on new accounts to prevent people from coming in here and doing this kind of thing.

Perhaps all first posts should be reviewed by a moderator before they are allowed to get posted.

For the Confederates, it seems a bit odd that they could have a single unified pool when they had a railroad with several different gauges. In a perfect world I would expect that it would be at least one pool per gauge.

Go to one of the free file-sharing services, open an account, upload the file, and post the link here.

I've only checked this in one scenario, but the Marius and Sulla scenario has a town in Pamphylia called Selinus. Selinus is in Sicily, on the other side of the Mediterranean.
