Better Civilization Colors

Opis
The colors of several main game civilizations are slightly altered:

Assyria: The foreground yellow is darker to make the text more readable.
Austria: The background red is shifted towards ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ to make it differ from Poland.
Aztecs: The foreground cyan is a little bit darker to look more pleasant.
Byzantium: The background color is lightened a little bit to provide a better contrast to the water on the minimap.
Ethiopia: Lightened up the background green and shifted the foreground red a little bit towards orange. This should help to make Ethiopians more distinguishable from Barbarians and Koreans.
France: The background color is lightened a little bit to provide a better contrast to the water on the minimap.
Germany: Tinted the background towards blue to make Germany look less dull.
Greece: Tinted the background white towards cyan. This is because white wasn't unique (it is now because only Portugal keeps its pure white background). The original icon of Greece already contains cyan.
Japan: Tinted the background white towards blue. Same reason as for Greece. The icon is adjusted accordingly.
Korea: Lightened up both the background blue and the foreground red. This should help distinguish Koreans from Barbarians and Ethiopians.

The changes are designed to stay as similar as possible to the original design, but provide better contrast. The colors should also be suitable for people with color vision deficiency (checked with Coblis Color Blindness Simulator); please tell me if they aren't.

@just.nuke.em: Thank you for telling me, though I'm sorry to hear this. I can only rely on simulators, and I can't tell whether they actually match the perception of a real color blind person. With more than 40 civ color combos, I'm not even sure if it's possible to make all of them both unique in brightness and still pleasant-looking for people who can see colors.
Are there shades in this mod which are particularly problematic?

As a color blind person, this changed nothing...

This mod is really helpful. Thank you!

Thank you! :)

I see ... I didn't know about that particular drawback for colorblind people. Anyway, your mod is very good!

@lockstep: I know the other Ethiopia Color Fix mod, and I used a darker green (and lighter red) on purpose, because the comments over there say it's hard to read for colorblind people. Even I found it rather unpleasant, and I can see colors very well (may depend on my monitor though).

IMO, the Ethiopian background color is still somewhat dark (although better then the original). How about making it lighter still, e.g. by using the "Hunter Green" of the older Ethiopia Color Fix mod?

@Peter34: Poland is black (extremely dark red actually) on red background while Barbarians are red on black background. I've never felt that these are confusable. Do you have this problem with other civilizations too where the colours are switched, e.g. Austria vs. Japan oder Mayas vs. Iroquois?
Peter34 12 września 2015 o 19:08 
Why not change Poland too? Their red colour is just a bit too similar to the colour of Barbarians, and that often throws me. Now imagine that occuring in a multiplayer game with a 120s turn clock.

@KaijuJaegar19: You're right, I've often seen Rome being red/gold. But this is out of scope for this mod, I just want to make little changes that enhance contrasts and visibility on the map. Considering this, the Germany change is already questionable, and I don't want to include even more blatant changes. Your idea should be an extra mod. I hope I have the time soon to make it.
