All alerts silent + Green messages

[Buio]

I know there is another silent alarm here by Shark7
tm.asp?m=2479146

But I made all alerts silent for my own convenience. After playing a while, it's a bliss for me with all alerts silent. There are four sound files here, copy them to your DistantWorlds\Sound\Effects folder. I use visual indications instead, and check the log/alerts manually.

Credit for the silent sounds goes to Xamuel, which I then converted to WAV using foobar2000. I used appropriate length ones, don't think it matters though.

Edit:
Old instructions above, they are for DW: Shadows.
For Distant Worlds Universe, just copy the files to
\Distant Worlds Universe\Customization\[Your Compilation mod folder]\Sounds\Effects



Also I recommend you use Sirian's Message mod for the messages instead of mine below (I do).

I made a very small change to two messages. Yeah, it's simple but what I want. Also, it's about max what my graphical editing skills allow me to do.

The files go to your DistantWorlds\images\ui\messages folder.

Old (original)

Very nicely done [8D]

Never noticed they were the wrong color before, look much better the way you have done them.

Even after playing for years, the red "success" check still throws me for a half second... [:)]
Well done Buio.

[TrooperCooper]

Thanks for the images. Makes much more sense this way. [:)]

Very well done Buio!

[DPimentel]

Love the green. Much easier to figure out what's going on. Thanks!

[Shark7]

Well done!

I had plans to extend my own null sound alarm mod, but this is just as good, plus the green image update takes it up one notch.

Love the new messages, I get happy when i see the green check mark now.

[Hollah]

Very nice touch, Thanks

This deserves a bump, the new alert sound is just as annoying as the old one imo.

Brilliant! Thank you.
