June Screenshot Competition

I imagine he suggested no elephants because they seem to pop up numerous times in every screenshot thread. There's only so much you can do with an elephant screenshot, and it is almost always just an elephant sending guys flying. Yes, it looks cool, but we've all seen it a million times and it's not very original. It's kind of like a humongous explosion in a movie, yeah it looks cool but we don't really even enjoy it that much anymore, the novelty has worn off after 20-30 years of that kind of special effect being inserted everywhere. Same with elephants. After 3 years of elephant screenshots, let's see something else!

Noob question now: How do you turn off faction banners?

**-Praetor-** · 06-05-2011, 15:02

preferences.txt

Or if you installed the trivial script there´s an option to do just that.

Cheers.

Well, actually elephant pictures tend to win, which is why they're usually against the rules entirely. ^^

Click the EB Configuration icon on your desktop, click "preferences", and deselect "show banners", or click the "EB Preferences" file in your "Rome -Total War" folder and deselect "show banners". I don't know how to do if you don't have Trivial Script installed though.
