After some players asked for the original graphics to return after the last update, we have now made them available on a separate “Legacy” branch.
To switch to the version with the original graphics, right-click Mittelland AD in your Steam library, open Properties, and then select the “Legacy” version under “Game Versions and Betas.”
After that, the game will need to update once more; the download is only a few megabytes.
To continue playing with the improved graphics, no action is required.
To swap individual graphics between the “Legacy” and the new version, the following files in the game directory can be replaced accordingly:
Large map with city names:
Mittelland AD\\game\\install\\MITTELL\\ICONS3\\ICON23.DAT
Large map with customs forts and robber camps:
Mittelland AD\\game\\install\\MITTELL\\ICONS3\\ICON24.DAT
Small map with city names:
Mittelland AD\\game\\install\\MITTELL\\ICONS3\\ICON25.DAT
Font:
Mittelland AD\\game\\install\\MITTELL\\ICONS3\\ICONCS.DAT
New "Legacy" branch with the original font and maps
Improved small maps with more readable city names
Improved text formatting
Corrections to spelling and translation
