could be the operating system people use too. i think i heard exodus say he uses vista. that could be it. you're probably right though horselance, it's probably the font.
ummm... who cares though? i don't think the makers of the map should be concerned really with why it's happening. if i were them i'd just take out the last 2 or 3 lines or, like i said before, get a custom load screen. and, like i said before also, i know that it's going to make the file size bigger, however i still argue that it's worth it for these reasons:
1. i know i already said this too, but chicks like artwork. some of us guys have to play maps that our girlfeinds like from time to time or else they get unhappy. girls prefer to watch me play dota cuase they think it's more interesting. if battle tanks had some artwork at the start then i'm figuring it should up its chick appeal.
2. I think a custom load screen says to gamers, "this is a well done map, made by some one who knew what he was doing." so if battle tanks had one i think it should change a lot of people's opinions about the map. yes, i have mentioned this before too, i know.
3. more people playing battle tanks = better game play and this is how: THE MAIN PROBLEM WITH BATTLE TANKS IS THAT IT'S HARD TO FIND A GAME IF YOU CAN'T HOST i.e. not enough people play it. If more people liked battle tanks then more people would play battle tanks. if more people played battle tanks then players would have to play better to win. if there were more good players hosting games of battle tanks then we would all be happier. for 1, no one would have to play with gay lag in other realms just to have a descent match anymore.
4. just for the record, dota is a huge file size and it's played about 100 million times more often than battle tanks right now. i think battle tank's file size is currently somewhere around 500kb and dota's is around 3500kb! (i think) or mb, i don't care, my point is: even though dota's about 7 times the size people don't mind taking the time to go the http://www.getdota.com and downloading the map. i wonder, is there some other reason why the map makers of battle tanks need to keep the file size so small? perhaps thier hard drives are full and that's all they can fit? i'm guessing it's got something to do with the size of files they can allow poeple to download off their websight. that's just a guess. i don't know.

Why's the rothchild family crest and the illuminati symbol on my 1 dollar bill? Why do rich and powerful American "christian" leaders have gay sex and worship a giant 40 foot stone owl at Beach Grove every year? Why doesn't anyone care?
