I dunno if it's the background colour of his post or the fact that he has long hair but...

It's like a rock star has entered this thread! \o/

Ok, I tweaked the new backpacks and added 2 more to make an even dozen.. in the pic you can compare the old (bottom) to the new (top set) icons.

Let me know if these pass the grade.

Cheers!

Some of them certainly pop out better now, good one.

Though 1 little addition, perhaps the redeemed insignia icon should have a blue background, to go with the general unredeemed red / redeemed blue theme throughout the shadowlands.

I like the new fire, biohazard is now clear for my eyes, and tower pops out better, but somehow I liked the old redeemed insignia better (very small difference though; either is fine) and the unredeemed looks almost the same (that is difficult one for sure, having those thin details). Or maybe my monitors just have too high resolution :P (Though can't change those, being flat panels).

**Effrit** · Jul 11th, 2010, 18:38:29

The new ones look better, just for being more bold, but i agree with Leileena, if you were to change the redeemed background to blue it would fit far better.

**Docaholic** · Jul 12th, 2010, 02:05:58

In the ones I'll send to Means the redeemed backpack will have a blue background and I tried to add a bit more contrast to the unredeemed one.

Cheers!

Doc idk if you still check this thread (btw this is Ustolembelt

finally got forums to let me log in!). Anywho seeing as I'm me and the A.D.D. is kicking in right now I was wondering if you would possibly consider re-working some of the Hud/Util items like the Light Bar from noob island and (more importantly imho and probably most people's) like the Targeting Scopes? To me they seem a bit blocky to really be wrapped around somebody's head and over their eye. Maybe something more slim and a bit shinier? A.D.D. people like shinyyy.... Btw I'm liking the barrow strength and withering flesh icons and ofc the gems and rings all look fantastic. The "Name That Ring" thing the one that instantly stood out to me is 37 as the Ado ring. Anyways I have to get off forums atm for the same reason I always have to get off TeamSpeak (for those of you who don't know I have to get off constantly for Mom-Agg), so see you in a bit Doc hopefully I get a chance to discuss a few ideas with you soon

One thing pops to mind... Inner Sanctum icons are still the same while Temple of the Three Winds icons are for a large part changed. Would it be possible to have some minor changes to the ToTW icons to be used for IS?

Any chance I can get a list of the IS icons you think could use upgrading? I haven't spent much time in IS and usually it's just to run in and get a specific item like the FBR

Cheers!

Shoulderpads
Soulmarks
Perm Key

What I'm pointing at are items that are the exact same thing as the ToTW ones but with a slightly different name and scaled up requirements/effects. Things like DoT ring, Blind Ring, shoulderpads, MA attack books, root/debuff reducers (don't think you did the totw one of that yet) and circle of the inner sanctum rings (I imagine them like the notum ones from ToTW but perhaps they need an entirely different icon set)

Also, the skulls/scythes/blades could use a simple color treatment to match their actual ingame colors (they now have the exact same icons as their totw counterparts). Not very creative I know, but since ingame textures got the same treatment it would be quite accurate I think.

Come to think of it, the Azure armor set needs a slightly different color tint as well, more like a light-blue version of Chilled Plasteel (matching it's ingame color) then the Titan Plasteel it shares the current icon with.

There, bunch of work for you

I can look up the exact names of the IS items later if you need.

**Junttius** · Jul 22nd, 2010, 01:01:34

Had to just pop by to thank you for your awesome work Docaholic! I'm out.

**Lusos101** · Jul 28th, 2010, 13:29:01

Yeah, this thread still deserves a few good bumps. So...

Bumps.

**Docaholic** · Jul 29th, 2010, 15:36:05

You guys kill me every time you bump this 'Sticky' lol

Here are a few more Icons I finished..

http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f2...uff_Sample.jpg

new sexier explosif pillows, ingots (silver, gold, platinum, iridium, molybdenum and osmium) followed by 3 new 'Small-Ingot' (tradeskill Item) for silver, gold and platinum. Then some new 'robot Junk' and a new Alien armor material (which currently uses the robot junk/tagging device icon.)

I'll be sending these to Means shortly.

Cheers!

**Grim-One** · Jul 29th, 2010, 16:13:16

The pillows and robot junk are great. The text "ingot" on the small ingots seems a bit out of place though.

Agreed on both counts

**ignat2** · Jul 29th, 2010, 16:36:51

i like the current ai pillows better tbf, but other than that, great job!

**Docaholic** · Jul 29th, 2010, 22:44:43

I thought adding the embossed area on the small-ingots and the 'Ingot' text stamped on them, helped make them look distinct, instead of just making the shape different. I'm not sure if these new explosif pillows will actually get used for the simple reason that for the sake of consistency the in-game mesh (model) texture would also need to be updated.

Time will tell, they are in Funcom's hands now, they have all final decisions.

Cheers!

**erozc** · Jul 30th, 2010, 09:40:18

Nice job on the ingots, couldn't make out whether I liked the robot junk or not though. Nevertheless they make me want to go out and tradeskill

**Zenross** · Jul 30th, 2010, 15:58:21

Robot junk looks great. The ingots... well, the first thing that came to mind about those was a bar of soap, especially because of the text. :/
