Potential Hex Perk Icon Improvement

Post by Xitax »

I find the included hex perk icons very unreadable, so I created my own set and to share with you.
Perks done at max and medium zoom. Small zoom is unreadable anyway so I didn't bother. Also added improved airbase icon.
Feedback is welcome.

Last update June 26. Released full set v.1.0.

Also a test at a more readable selected hex asset highlight. To make it more visible without going full UI mod. Put the file into "\Shadow Empire\GraphicsAlt\systemgraphics\se1"

Agreed! These are a big improvement. Any plans to make them available?

Thanks very much for the encouragement. I can release them as soon as I get all the icons done. However I need help. I cannot generate a map with all the icons - some apparently can only be generated under certain circumstances. Therefore I would greatly appreciate it if anyone can upload a save game where I can see icons that I have not modded - the ones I have covered are all in the image on the 1st post. Thank you!

I've decided to release them as is. Hopefully I'll discover what's missing in a while, but I haven't made much progress last month so I'm just going to release it.

These icons only show up on max zoom. I'm not sure what I'm going to do about zoomed out states just yet.
