Default Re: Question about sites found on map

Many units and magic items are almost indecipherable with the new Dom 3 interface. Darker items and units virtually disappear into the dark brown background color. I waste a lot of time searching for things that do not show up well.

It was much easier to see things clearly with the old Dominions II interface, when the background was light.

What were they thinking with this new dark background and the harder to read white fonts? I wish there were a way of going back to old interface.

Browse this thread for a variety of alternative backgrounds that you can use. If you have the Dom2 backgrounds, it is easy enough to replace the new ones with the old as well.
