Description:
This mod is no longer supported.

Use the Community Balance/Bugfix Patch instead, which includes this mod.

About:

During my digging through menus and files for Fall of Nations, I discovered that the selection box on the CTW screen is off by 1-2 pixels for each campaign selection. Additionally, the bottom-left inside black border is missing from the graphic.

This mod fixes both of these.

Note: a trivial side effect of this mod is that the text of each campaign’s name has been shifted by the same number of pixels required to fix the selection box. The text remains sufficiently aligned that it doesn’t look "off" (which is more than I can say about the selection box), but since this isn’t a pure fix — but rather a tradeoff of which alignment is more noticeable — I thought it worth mentioning.

How to use:

1) Subscribe to the mod.
2) Ensure that the mod is loaded and enabled in the Rise of Nations mod manager (accessible via Tools & Extras -> Steam Workshop).
3) Select any of the campaigns from the Conquer the World menu and observe how the selection box is now perfectly aligned and the bottom-left black border is now present for all campaign graphics.

Compatibility:

This mod is not compatible with any other mod that modifies the following files:
– conquest.xml
– CTW_mapselect.tga

IN MULTIPLAYER GAMES, IF NOT ALL PLAYERS ARE USING THIS MOD IT WILL CAUSE THE GAME TO GO OUT OF SYNC UPON LOADING. To prevent this simply disable the mod from the Workshop menu.
