[Official] Brazil REVAMP [Quenched]

[LED ZEPPELINER]

i really like this revamp, the old graphics were a little lacking, but these graphics are stunning

What are the non crossing borders supposed to be? They don't really look like anything now.

Just think lines. They are not supposed to represent anything.

I hardly ever support map revamps, but I really like this newer version of Brazil. Good job!

who doesnt like a map that improves the brazil map?

1) Some places the borders go past where they are supposed to, and at others for some reason they seem pixely
2) Some names are a little hard to read
3) I dont really care for how the Non-Crossing Borders and mini-map take up mostly vertical space. Have you thought of putting them in a box maybe? or maybe moving the Non-Crossing Borders into the lower left corner between the mini-map and the outer border?


I cant think of anything else than that, its a great map!

[happy2seeyou]

Maybe I like it so much because I have had bad luck on that map. Not sure, but I might play it more now.

Hey, how is this discuss going? Nobody asked anything to me...

But ok...I saw while reading the post that was a discuss about the territory names...so, exist in Brasil some projects of creations of new states, that are important regions...so I searched and found a map with some of the "new" states, in north and northeast areas...still have more, but only this ones is enough...

Well, as I dont know how the discuss is going I ll post my opinions...

1- I love the news versions of the map! They are really good!!! The colors, the design! They are really beautiful! A kind of stereotype, but really good!!! \o/...but, in the second one, the rotation confused me...its strange to look it...you feel lost...

2 - That more 2 things strange to me...well, do all maps here in CC have to be in English? Because It's easy to read...it isnt really a problem, but seens that is wrote wrong without the accents marks...as its strange Brasil wroted with "z"...

I just have 1 request to make this map much better looking...

BOLDER COLORS PLEASE!!

Then it will be very nice looking

[jiminski]

I'm of the opinion that even should RJ end his exile from the foundry, he should shutter this project and move on. Marvaddin has turned this whole process into a farce, and oaktown's 100% right about the abuse of power going on here. If marv's totally okay with having his country represented by the bar-none ugliest map on this site, if he's so up his own ass about his artistic genius that he can't see that RJ is producing a map that makes the original look like cave paintings, then let the revamp as a whole die.

[RjBeals]

Believe me, I don't want this to die. It's just on hold for a bit longer.

[nature]

Well, ok...ask me for everything u wanna know about Brasil, I ll try to help ^^

So, nothing yet?

[RjBeals]

Okay - so I fixed the accents in the names. Slightly modified the legend. Anyone want to critique this map? I know it's been months and months since I left off - sorry bout that.

Here's some points:
1) Do you like the yellow/brown square border around the map?
2) Do you like all the trees in the background?
3) Do you like the non-crossing border? It was pink before, now it's a greenish/yellowish hue.
4) Is the legend too big? Should there be a text legend instead of the minimap?
5) Is the font style okay on the map? It's very plain I know, but I couldn't find anything else I'm happy with.
6) Overall colors okay - for colorblind folks?

Thanks

1) Do you like the yellow/brown square border around the map?
I think it's too precise in comparison to the rest of the map … maybe a tiny bit of blur?
2) Do you like all the trees in the background?
Yep, they look nice.
3) Do you like the non-crossing border? It was pink before, now it's a greenish/yellowish hue.
Better than before.
4) Is the legend too big? Should there be a text legend instead of the minimap?
No, I think it's fine as is.
5) Is the font style okay on the map? It's very plain I know, but I couldn't find anything else I'm happy with.
I like it.
6) Overall colors okay - for colorblind folks?


Could you move Porto Velho and Alagoas's army circles more into the territory?

Looks really great,
.44

[edbeard]

looks great to me

[The Neon Peon]

Put me down for the same responses as .44

Was planning to answer but then realized I was just paraphrasing him lengthily.

For colorblind checking see Vischeck web site where you can simulate colour-blind results.
In this case North West and Central North are the same for deuteranope (a form of red/green color deficit) people.

[MrBenn]

A small tweak of the red/green regions should help the colourblind issues - make one a little darker, and the other a little lighter.

I think the colourblind issue should be the only legitimate concern from my perspective...

[RjBeals]

1) Do you like the yellow/brown square border around the map?
So the border looks too precise. I like it, but I guess I'll try something a bit different.

Could you move Porto Velho and Alagoas's army circles more into the territory?

Yep.


Yes I'll see about fixing the color blind thing. Thanks all.

[nature]

Yehhhhhhhh! Finally!!!
So I'll answer too ^^

1) Do you like the yellow/brown square border around the map?

Yeah! I liked very much.

2) Do you like all the trees in the background?

Yeah! Very much. I love they =D

3) Do you like the non-crossing border? It was pink before, now it's a greenish/yellowish hue.

Yeah, its much better.

4) Is the legend too big? Should there be a text legend instead of the minimap?

No, I think its ok.

5) Is the font style okay on the map? It's very plain I know, but I couldn't find anything else I'm happy with.

It isnt bad, but the font you used on the minimap looked better for me.

6) Overall colors okay - for colorblind folks?

I dont know...



Just more things I saw:
- Thanks for fixing the accent marks, its very better now...
- 2 territories are with their names wrong: its not "Foz do Lguaçu", is "Foz do Iguaçu" and its not "Triaângulo", its "Triângulo".
- I think the territory names are too small...


And thanks for your amazing job!

I'll fix the type-o's - thanks.
I'll play around with the type-face and size a little more.

great work

Its looking really nice, but i think you should move the legend more to the corner and extend the border so that it goes around the legend.

[RjBeals]

not sure I understand. If you mean move the legend to the right corner, and extend the map borders so it's not the "floating" map, then I can't do that. It wouldn't be right since this is the map that was voted for.
