I think a stylized bear paw would be better for kislev.
I really like this one:

@Duke
I totally forgot about the flag for Kislev. Interested to do it? It's a standing bear on blue ground, a Kislev armybooklet is in GW-online unfortunatly not possible to cut or copy anything from it but there are some pics of banners you might be able to imitate.

I think I found a good stylized bear in the booklet to cut and copy for the banner (have a look at page 18)

 

[Duke van Frost]

I got the flag for Kislev done.



Ploe can you tell me what I have to do with flags to make them appear ingame if they don´t have an alpha-channel? I always get a white flag if I don´t apply a black alpha-channel

I´ll put the flag and a button for Norsca (with a slightly darker purple also for the flag) in the next patch I´ll be doing - I want to rename all wonders before I upload the next one

And I was wondering about the TeamCoulour for Kislev - Do you want to keep that Orange

 

[Ploeperpengel]

All flags need to have a black alpha channel if they are supposed to not display teamcolor, if they are supposed to show tc and have a white alpha just set the boolean in the civartdefs to 0
The tc for Kislev should maybe be exchanged with the one tilea has. I don't like the flag tilea now has anyway. The original was yellow btw not blue but JP wanted the tilean blue in game and also that flag. Since we got simcuties colortable in we can choose more freely about tc now.

did you take a look at that paw i found? i personally like it better than the bear you found, but i really dont mind what their flag is.

just my 2 cents

 

[Ploeperpengel]

I'm not sure about the paw since there is a quite similar symbol on the norse war mammoth's standard right now and I like it there.

Yes, I had a look at it, btu after I saw the pictures in the Kislev Booklet and the Flags the Unit had in there I decided to go with the bear.

 

[Psychic_Llamas]

Ok thats a good enough excuse for me

 

[Ploeperpengel]

btw the progress screen is awesome now. just the highelfpic could be better. But barding is actually not related to bards it's horse barding(armor)

Yeah, I don´t like the HE pic also, had some better ones, but deleted them by accident and now I can´t find them anymore.

Horse Barding, Ok, the I´ll do a horse with a lute
No, I´ll change that one to some armor.

 

[Duke van Frost]

Ha, found the pics again!

here they are, which one do you like better (only the motive not colors or contrast, this can all be changed)

I prefer the one with the Archers

 

[Ploeperpengel]

Yes the Archers are awesome! I vote for those

 

[Civmansam]

I vote for the pike's. The archer's look too woodelfish. Whenever I think of woodelves I allways think of archers and whenever I see high elves I always think of pikeman. No offense to Woodelf of course

 

[seZereth]

i would go for the pikes too!

 

[Duke van Frost]

ok, now it´s 2 for the Archers vs. 2 for the Pikes, votes will be taken until 29 PM GMT then the poll is closed

If nobody votes until then I´ll take the Archer, because I already finished that one yesterday

 

[Ploeperpengel]

We can simply take both. The progressscreen isn't limited in numbers. Just add a line in the xml.

 

[Duke van Frost]

I know, been there done that.

you should listen to the UN musicfile, because that´s the one which will be used in the final version

The time for which the pics are displayed are also reduced and I changed all Displayeffects to Fade In

 

[Ploeperpengel]

What music? United Nations hymn?

 

[seZereth]

I get a white flag problem, for the first time.... never had this before, but i added the nipponese and cathay flag, now i got every new flag in white...

 

[Duke van Frost]

@Ploe: it´s in the Sounds folder of cIV and it´s the one called UN (I think it´s the sound for the Diplomatic Victory)

@SeZ: tried giving them a black alpha-channel?
