Dominions screen saver

[WraithLord]

Well, a small fantasy of mine.
I mean over the time and many MP games I've taken screenshots of the more epic or interesting battles, so I have 200 and more of them that I've set in my screen saver (the one that comes with windows and slide shows pics).

That gave birth to the following idea - pure fantasy as it is - how about if dominions had a -scr flag in which it would start in a screen saver mod and look for the turns under savedgames folder, make a list of the battles in them, and replay them in a (possibly cinematic) random order?- Wouldn't that be nice? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Nice??

It would be FANTASTIC!!!

Possibly with a filter excluding somehow the many boring little unhepic battles involving just few, low-appealing units with low magic - like a militiamen vs barbarians fight, or a small force losing to PD http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

That would be completely awesome! Doubly awesome if it could play while you were taking your turn, and feature battlescenes from earlier in that game.

Cool idea!

... and possibly quite doable if you intend to make a small donation in five-digit figures to the Illwinter project!

I've been told repeatedly to keep my money, and they'll keep doing what they've always done. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
