Needs updating badly. So I spent some time working on something new.

Without the crap on the right:

lowered contrast:

Lowered contrast + text:

Above with better text area imo:

I like the old one better

Ditch the right-side text. Illegible, confusing, and unnecessary.

when you say any rts game concept you'd better mean it too, wheres DoW squads and wheres wc3 auras and hero systems and inventories and creeps and single player? also saying "lolz lua can do it" is not enough

The current Logobar wrote:... The current goal is to make it run content from the game Total Annihilation

We are a little beyond that, mmk?

Specific things on this site need to be updated badly, I simply went ahead and attempted to do something about it.

That's a rather silly stance. To say that the engine is not 'capable of' things because they haven't been done yet?

The background image is too bright and the lines are distracting, making the actual Spring text hard to read.

It's nice to see people making an effort for this though don't get me wrong :)

contrast is too strong. Less tint and shade please.

Peet · Post by **Peet** » 06 Dec 2007, 21:24

Slightly lower saturation and contrast on the bg image and I'm all for it. "Spring is an open-source project aiming to create a versatile RTS engine" would probably be better for the text though.

i like it, the textless. 10/10

You realize all those things were done in lua in DoW, too?

Doesn't SWS have auras? I thought I've read about that. I got squads in Fibre allright, Tower defense is supplying the creeps and singleplayer. Leaves the inventory but really, why would you need an inventory for a freaking RTS? You seem to be demanding a hardcoded feature. Noone even wants an inventory, why hardcode it?

Uh hello so your hero can carry potions and stuff. And your units need backpacks to help bear some of the load so your hero isn't carrying more than 6 items because that's just unrealistic. Jeez it's like you've never played a real time strategy before!
