Josant,

Those were very nice as well. [:)]

May I extract them as individual 50x20 pixel images and post them as a .zip file in this thread?

Cheers

Appreciate all the work that’s gone into drawing new equipment silhouettes. Well done.
Do they also come in black?

Regards

Downloaded the modified equipment file some time ago and have long since forgotten the name of the designer. I just liked the black color over the yellow . . . much more pleasing to the eyes.

I agree the yellow is a jarring color. I have experimented with shades of grey and lighter greens. They are easier on the eyes, but I would want the entire equipment file in the same color, which would entail some work unless one had a graphics program that can swap the colors of pixels.

There are programs like paint.net (which is free) that can do that, for example in the following file I change the yellow by the black

Yes, it should be easy to change to color of the icons, but can you change the color of the text as well? Otherwise I find the contract between the black icons and the yellow text rather jarring as well.

Thank you, JosAnt.

76mm, that text may be in the TOA* font files in the main graphics directory, but I am not sure.

I was looking for a way to change the Labels [red circle] for these Equipments, but I guess we can't ?

Those labels are in the gametext file, but I think 76mm and I determined they are no longer read by the program and appear to be hard-coded :(
