AO Icon Mastermind at work
xan ncus will be greatly indicated now :)
btw the new fgrid item is cutest ever ! makes me even prouder when i summon it ^^
Gogo Doc :)
The new Xan ncus look better than the current ones but I still got this question: Why do Xan ncus look like something that Omni corp manufactures and not like something that was invented eons ago by the Xan? Shouldn't the Xan ncus look more like Yuttos Modified NCU (Shadowlands tech)? ;)
Long shot, but an chance you could play around with making profession icons?
Call me nuts, but I'm hoping after the graphics engine they will work on the official AO website and the "people of rubi-ka" section to display characters info in a more user friendly way (most MMO's have a nice set of icons to identify class/level/side, etc.
The way it displays now, looks like we play a MUD rather than an MMORPG, very plain, bare and outdated.
Would be nice to see your idea of how it COULD be displayed =D
Hm, dunno about those NCUs, they're sort of fiddly looking. And I agree that Xan tech looking like the original NCUs is sort of odd...
I have to agree the more its brought up the more I have to agree that Xan tech should look closer to the SL tech then RK tech. That said the cells themselves could probably stand a new look as well to better accommodate this look.
***Xan NCU Update in Design****

How's this.. for the mini skill NCU that you find on mobs, the mini is a front view(as seen in the top row first 4 icons) It gets turned sideways and inserted into the slots of the main Xan NCU. Base NCU is in the top right.
Think these will Work better? do they look more 'Xan-ish'?
Let me know what you think, Cheers!
Oh wow, the first set of icons I really dislike.
The Yuttos Modified NCU are sideways to look larger, maybe putting them at an angle would increase their size, as for coloring... damn man, monkey rainbows inspiration?
As a roleplayer, I would think the dusters went and took Xan technology and hacked it, so it would look close enough to Yuttos Modified NCU icon, but more metallic and dark with the cells lighting it up from within.
Also would like to see the Spirit Infused Yuttos Modified NCU look a bit different than the Yuttos Modified NCU.
Mmm same for me i m not a big fan of the last try. I think it doesn t enough looks like cells. Those looks a little too spikky imo.
So as Windguaerd, infused yutto mems could be different from basic ones. A simple color change when they get infused should do the trick i think
I like the new design more than the old one. It might be even better from a top view (if that's a side view now?). Maybe it could also look less like a loaf of bread. (more square-ish I suppose) :p
The cells look exactly the way they should. :)
last proposal makes more sense (looks like jumpers & motherboard) but it's kinda colder, less cute & bit "fuzzy" (i mean not as "designed" w/ pure lines & simple shapes) compared to first one.
less is more ... i think minimalistic drawing could be nicer orientation.
This latest version is a step in the right direction, but not quite there yet. Windguaerd gave some good feedback.
Here is another update.. the new Xan NCU are on the right hand side.

Let me know what you think.
Cheers!
P.S. I am not convinced that the Xan technology is an offshoot of yuttos tech. That's why I'm going for a different style.
It could handle the lights being a bit larger for visibility.
