Please read the current update for instructions on downloading the latest update. Players with Mac versions of the game will not be affected, but you will have a slightly longer wait for your version of the new maps. Please make a copy of your character folder before running the new update, just to make sure you don't lose any of your custom work.

It looks like we can give everyone a list of minimum specs for running City of Titans. Please keep in mind that this is 'for now' until we are able to add more graphics and other system refinements. Currently you will need :
Windows 10 or later required; no Intel integrated graphics like UHD, must have AMD or NVIDIA card or discrete chipset with 4Gb or more of VRAM
At least 16GB of main DRAM.
These stats may change as we continue to test.

To purchase your copy of the City of Titans Launcher, visit our store at https://store.missingworldsmedia.com/ A purchase of $50 or more will give you a link to download the Launcher for Windows or Mac based machines.

Untapped source of logos

Had an idea about logos that may give us easy access to a vast array of icons for little extra development cost and no issues with copyright or taste.

Fonts.

If the devs can implement it that a logo can consist of a single character and enable the usual public domain/everyone gets them with their OS fonts (Arial, Times Roman, Wingdings, Symbol etc), there's big bunch of varied options that they don't have to lift a finger to design. If the usual font options (italic, bold, underline, strikethrough, etc) are included, that expands the range even more.

Going further, the devs could use this to include their own symbol fonts by theme to help organise the choices and make use of existing public domain resources for font design.

And if a player wanted to have a client side symbol, have them select a font they own but have some equivalent default font character (or blank) display to everyone else without that font.

If Unicode is used, this would be an easy way to add Asian and other non-Latin characters.

Anyway, just a thought I had.

Well, just in Wingdings alone

Well, just in Wingdings alone, you do have:

Hourglass, Smiley Face, Frowny Face, Meh Face, Lit Bomb, Skull & Crossbones, Sun, Drop, Snowflakes, Crosses, Star of David, Star in Crescent, Yin/Yang, Zodiacs, Heraldic Roses, Numbers in Circles. Clockfaces, Arrows, Target. Stars and Diamonds.

Any of those could work as a logo. Several of them WERE classic CoX logos.
