05.JUN.2009 MiniCards v1.2
An exciting new version of the MiniCards diplomacy UI mod for Vanguard! This version makes use of the deck management commands recently added to the game. The strategy window now contains banks of buttons to load and save 10 decks of cards, plus a button the clear the deck.
Also finished for this version is a modified parley window which was designed to be more compact and reduce the screen area required. It uses the the same miniature playing cards and completes the set of diplomacy UI windows. The parley window includes some fixes for display issues in the default UI such as centering the dialogue indicator, and shows the full names of the player and their NPC opponent.
22.MAR.2009 InfoMap Advanced v2.1
Another update for the InfoMap UI mod, this time with a reworked riftway window. The full riftway map of Telon enables established players who know the riftways to rift between continents quickly without the need to change window tabs, although the individual continent maps are still there for when you're not quite sure where to go.
Also in this version, the threshold values for the civic levers have been added for the parleys on the civics tabs.
02.MAR.2009 Website Revamp
Yes it's true, I've managed to drag myself away from my various projects long enough to improve the website! The page framework has been given a new look whilst retaining the same general colour scheme. Plus there's a new home page layout with space for a scenic Vanguard image I can update occasionally.
