Optional "Legacy" Branch with Original Graphics

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.

For advanced users:

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: [c]Mittelland AD\\game\\install\\MITTELL\\ICONS3\\ICON23.DAT[/c]

  • Large map with customs forts and robber camps: [c]Mittelland AD\\game\\install\\MITTELL\\ICONS3\\ICON24.DAT[/c]

  • Font: [c]Mittelland AD\\game\\install\\MITTELL\\ICONS3\\ICONCS.DAT[/c]

Patch Notes:

  • New "Legacy" branch with the original font and maps
