REWORKED Map
An updated version of the original REWORKED – Map & Counters mod by Calion Denethor. The original mod stopped updated past 1.6 and disappeared, and several patchwork updates were released afterwards by other users, which too stopped updating. As always, I updated this to the current version for my personal purposes, but decided to share it with others as well.
As far as I can tell, this is the closest, most faithful one to the original mod, though I’ve slightly modified it so it’s more compatible with other UI-changing mods as well as made it easier to update. I’ve also separated it into different modules for easier customisability – this one is the main one for the map itself; the counters and the map colours are listed below.
Notes
– The supply map’s solid colour does not show through.
– The division counters are a bit low-res – this is because with higher resolution icons just like in the original version I have to scale down the UI element to fit it, which would make base game division icons look wonky.
– This main module and the counters should be compatible with most major mods – if not, open this mod’s folder, open the descriptor file, and add the mod you’re using to the dependencies list.
– This main module, along with the country colours, are NOT achievement compatible. The original mod author achieved the map’s look by modifying the defines file and colors.txt file, which changes the game’s checksum.
– The REWORKED Counters module is Achievement Compatible though.
Other Modules
– REWORKED Map (Main Module)
– REWORKED Counters
– REWORKED Colours for Base Game
– REWORKED Colours for Road to 56
