City and Province names hard to find

Mon Apr 23, 2007 2:07 am

At 1600x1200 resolution, the little black names for cities are impossible to read sometimes. Some names are over dark trees and such. However, during the two tutorials they named areas that I could never find. I moved the mouse over all areas and read the ToolTip names, but some I never found. It would be nice to have the names of places in a bold font and maybe a size larger? Different color (white) for some over dark trees?

In the tutorials a lot of names referred to areas that did not seem to exist. Why not use the fort and city names instead since they are displayed well?

One of them I never could find was Pittsburg Landing?! I looked for about a half an hour. :tournepas :p leure: :bonk: Am I going blind or do others feel the same?

Anyway, this is an excellent game! I feel like a complainer posting such a trivial fix. I also play FOF and I am thankful for having two wonderful American Civil War games. Thanks!

I had problems finding provinces by name at times too, but managed to do so in the end. Note , however, that this only seems to matter in the tutorials; once you start the non-tutorial scenarios, province names matter little (since you in most cases can click on messages to bring you there if you want to see it)
