2 days ago a teaser-puzzle was posted as Picture-Of-The-Day. The puzzle itself was not a very difficult one. You know that Heroes 4 supports 3 different resolutions: 800*600 px, 1024*768 px, and 1280*1024 px. These resolutions have display ratios of 4*3 and 5*4. Our screenshot is a ratio of 16*9, which is visibly longer. If you open the screenshot is separate window (just drag an image to the tab bar of your browser) you can see it's Full HD: 1920*1080.
Yes, we are working on HD-mod for Heroes 4!
Of course, it's not the final menu version. Of course we will add more resolutions. But what is important right now - it's finally working!
There are a lot of issues to resolve. Some of them have nothing to do with programming.
This is our call for Artists.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so here are pictures:
Main menu:
We need a proper main menu picture which will look good in different resolutions.
City Screen:
You can see that left and right sides of the screen are mirrored to make screen longer. This is just a patch, we need much better version. We need it drawn to make it look as organic as possible. Or, if you are ambitios enough, you can draw a completely new town screen and we can place all buildings where they need to be.
If you have a good idea what to put instead of our logo - plese share with us.
