How can I download the software? I wanted to do some youtube vids for my channel but dunno how to download/use this. It looks amazing as a caster!
I was watching ECL today, 3v3 stage and Capture age is just too colourful and overwhelming to me. It adds a lot of great features and I really appreciate all the work. In the current state it appears to me it just wants to show too much in too fancy ways and it kills the aoe2 vibe to me.
It shows a lot of information more than once, it shows a lot of unnecessary information and it uses a lot of bright colours. I would like to see it more basic and use hotkeys or other options to display information temporary on screen instead of all the time.
Especially the total team vills/resources/units bar adds like no valuable information at all and that would be the first thing I would personally remove. This information is only valuable knowing which unit they have on which player and for resources in bank it is nice to see when they can afford upgrades, as a team count it says close to nothing.
CA needs to display which age each player is in, which it currently does not.
I'm surprised to see other spectator overlay tools do show this basic and important info but CA does not. Otherwise CA is fantastic.
A simple request, could you please add relic count to the bottom left? It's a really critical thing to know, especially in late game.
I think that information shown for each individual player says enough and this just forces more numbers on the screen and makes it messy. But I would look at those numbers myself and not care about how the casters talk about it, so maybe different POV.I disagree with respect to the team totals. It was a common thing on streams during caster games that the caster went “SY has 50,130,230 vills in total and aM has moment, 10 more, but SY has more military and trade, so total population...” All this information is now available at a glance and imo super important for which team gets more trade faster, has a better boom etc. Resources is also nice for super late game to see which team is able to bank more wood and gold.
I think that it takes time to get used to capture age and also that casters are still far from using it optimally (to often select units, not toggle the different screens enough). Once they get used to that, I think we can start talking about hiding more info on other screens, but I really like the screen as it is atm
I know it's in the alternate window, but casters only use that for 5 seconds per game at most. It should be visible in the main bar at all times like in spec overlay.that's up to caster what he shows there
1% unironically isn't that much given the massive amount of time that must have gone into this and the engineering mastery that each of the developers must have obtained first.It would be nice if the HC3 donates 1% of the prize to AC developers. hehehehehehehehe

T90 already gave CapAge money for the developmentIt would be nice if the HC3 donates 1% of the prize to AC developers. hehehehehehehehe

I'm excited to announce Hidden Cup 3 will be casted using an overlay created by the Capture Age team! The Hidden Cup 3 overlay was designed and built specifically for Hidden Cup 3 and I have been funding the development time.
1% unironically isn't that much given the massive amount of time that must have gone into this and the engineering mastery that each of the developers must have obtained first.
Think most importantly it'd be nice if @ T90Official shouted out the CA team during the tournament and linked a way to donate to them. The CA team has put some magnificent work into this overlay and good work always should be appreciated ^_^
Ya this has been very annoying. There was no reason to tell if they clicked up unless you watch the ress all the time. It has been working sometimes i know, but it really is annoying.Since it's a feedback thread
Sometimes the overlay wasn't showing upgrades being researched ( for instance people upping to the next age - Pants game betwen Khan and Sheriff - I had no idea blue plajer already clicked up to castle age ).
I think whenever the research wasn't showing, the current age of the player shown near the scoreboard on the top was already showing the research to be completed but the age displayed near the ingame score in the bottom right was still showing the old age. At least that was how I was able to tell.Ya this has been very annoying. There was no reason to tell if they clicked up unless you watch the ress all the time.
