World map resolution too low

Post by Eschalonian »

The map the comes with the game (Eschalon World Map.jpg) has resolution set too low, that when I try to zoom in to read the small names, the small blurs just become big blurs. What higher power can I appeal to to rescan this map to a more zoomable resolution?

There will be a high resolution version of the map on the DVD when it comes out. It's possible that putting a higher resolution image in the game download would make the file uncomfortably large to download.

Make the high res version available to download as a separate item. I for one would be willing to take the time to download a large file.

The downloaded zip file is 284,907 KB. The map currently is 271 KB. I seriously doubt a better map would increase the download much.

Amen!

Please let us download a higher res map. Please please please!


Many thanks for a great game though. I loved Book 1 and can't wait until the Mac version of book 2 is out. Hopefully I don't get too far with the demo on my PC before I get the Mac version.

Im loving this game. But I to would like to see the names of towns and where things are. I am unable to read anything on the current map. It looks pretty though!

+1 to downloading a high-res version off the website :)
