I thought I'd share a little 2D map elevation and unit symbols mod that I did for my own use some years back, and then modified as the series progressed. It may not be for everyone but to my eye it makes elevations and unit formations easier to read. Compatible with all ACW titles and the Demo.
Credit where credit's due: The 2D unit symbols were originally done by Nick Bell and slightly modified by me. The terrain elevation colors are all my doing.
Warning! Be sure you back up your original map files before installing! It's easier to unzip the new files to a separate folder and then copy/paste to the game's map and info folders.
This has been revised so that the "info" folder files are included in case you want to use them, and the terrain colors have also been tweaked a bit.
