Since my guess would be that they are much more provinces on this map then it is in Eu3 would that result in more german minors?
Cool. One thing, the mockup has 'Poland', 'Hungary' 'Italy' etc written on the map, personally I think that is a bit unneccesary, but I can see the aesthetic appeal (as in making it look like a map from the era). Is there any chance those region names could only appear on terrain mapmode?
Well apparently you must've used an officer uniform as model for the sprite. A private's uniform doesn't not have passepoil. As you can see this is how a m/1845-coat for a private looks like:
And officers uniforms don't have passepoil on the "bottom part" of the coat.
And concerning the trousers, I didn't say they were wrong, I said why it'd be better to use dark blue trousers instead.

I'll tell our 3D artist to only use private's uniforms in future.
O goodie, because I know it sounds lame but I wouldn't have bought it until it was removed. I have serious OCD and seeing 999 instead of 1000 would have driven me bonkers.
I do love the sprites though, they look good. I assume with the ease of "fixing" the Clauswitz engine us fans of the small countries will be able to quickly add historical sprites to our liking?
yeh once you get the sprite in it is just simple task of editiing a few plain text files.
King, is the sprite setup the same as EU3, i.e. every unit represented by the same sprite or will artillery, cavalry etc have separate sprites?
Not that I even use them, but won't the old INF sprites look awkward in WW1 with new tech tank, airplane and BB sprites? Is it possible to revert the old INF sprites to perhaps HoI3 INF sprites in the 20th century?
Fair enough. Also, please make the borders between countries black and not red
I'd imagine someone will mod in the HoI3 sprites for 1918 onwards pretty soon after release. It would be great!
It's not quite that simple. I have actually asked a programmer exactly this question and I got a lot technical stuff about shaders back.
I havent checked in detail, but I think it might be quite doable with some texture changes by the modders.
