For the muslim countries we could use someting like this.
(Simple thing that I made in 10 min, needs some tweaking...)

Looking good, man.

That sure looks sweet!! Excellent work as always.

Heh, I don't know about that, I think it's quite dodgy. More an example of the concept I had. I'll admit I'm a fan of the crossed swords though .

Maybe we should redo the graphics in the Diplomatic Mod so it has the same style.

What's wrong with the Diplo Mod?

Thanks, one problem though. The spanish coa will be visible in the "war message"...

Yeah the crossed swords are definitly a go go.

I guess the Diplo Mod is ok, just in a need of a uppdate.

It doesn't quite match those new swords - the hands look to big and crude when compared to the slim swords?

Majbe you could ask Johan for a possible - fix ?

I just did that, anxiously waiting for a reply.

 

[Nikolai II]

when did this thread change it's name?

 

[Birger]

Oh, about 1 hour ago, asked kurtbrian for it.

The E stands for Enhanced.

Only solution I can think of is a small placeholder CoA for Spain (not totally invisible, so it can be selected at game start) and an instant event that changes the CoA to what it should be. Not optimal

and, IIRC, the CoA that is behind the message box is based on what SPA's shield is, so if we use an invisible shield for SPA, then change to a visible shield, the CoA behind the message box will first be an invisible shield, and then change to a visible shield

I had the same problems with non-rectangular shields in Vicky.

Could you set Spain to a U-tag instead and have the shield_spa.bmp left as blank?

Nah - would screw up all events, including ToT and Spains 'special' CBs..

Only thing to do is to test if Xie is right and it can't be circumvented by having an event - if so then Spain might have to have a small and silly shield (or all other shieldtypes need to be made bigger - or a graphics glitch has to be accepted..)

I realised I should have put the shadow side of the swords downwards. And possibly could make them fatter, a la:

Xie is right. IMHO, it'd be better to have the glitch than a silly round Spain shield. At any rate, I assume you're working on the normal shields first, so it's a problem that can be deferred...

...Unless Johan can offer a solution?

OMG! I'm out for a week and when I return I found all this new and excellent work by BJ and cccino. Congratulations to both of you!

Well, I must say I'd love to see how these new graphics work in the Mongol Empire Scenario

Glad you like all of it.
I think it will look really sweet in the MES.

Finished the muslim template last night, only the African left now.

African ?

 

[Birger]

Yeah, I want to use this shape:

Latin/Orthodox - CoA
Muslim - The round shield
Mongol + the rest - hanging flags.

You are a genius

 

[cccino]

You are a genius

Isn't he though?

 

[Birger]

Nah, I just got too many ideas in my head... But thank you guys!

Nice sig btw cccino.

 

[Birger]

Hmm, the African shield template was even trickier than I thought... Still working on it though.
