This time it's the belts! Everybody loves the fact that all belts look exactly the same (except the (useless) energyfield belts).

KK can drop me a message if they want to include these in the game as well, but they will be in the next version of NeoLauncherPRO which will be released tonight or tomorrow.

Don't get me wrong I think it grate that you are doing these graphical mods but I fell that they look to cartooney.

sorry:(

5 stars from me. Even if some people don't like them I doubt they can honestly say they prefer the current GFX.

Very nicely done, I like the way they progress colour wise.

i think its a good idea to have something to distinguish between the belts, but i dont like any of the colours. they just dont look like the rest of the graphics in game IMO anyway.
maybe they look better when you see them ingame.

hmm

i like the idea.. but some of them are no more easy to distinguish between than the current graphics ( Ie between diff Psi belts, or between energy and poison) what i mean to say is the colours are too close together in the spectrum and may look the same at a quick glance :P

I dont think they will look cartoony when they are actual size, its always nice to differenciate stuff.

I like.

Nice job, but instead say of having the medium belts have a faded colour, maybe the elements need to be fully coloured in.

It's hard to distiguish between the belts in one class.

What I mean is like the buckle is fully coloured on the low belt but the other belt pocket/things are not. Perhaps make it so that on the medium belt, two things are fully coloured with one not, and the heavy all three are coloured.
For the psi belt maybe the left hand element could be half-coloured in for the third level, and all coloured for the forth.

Another way could be to swap the heavy for the medium, and for the heavy have the belt fully coloured in.

You have any idea how small the spectrum is? There are 3 main colors in the spectrum and I have 5 different belts. So the only color that is at least a little different from the others that I haven't used is purple.

So if you want color coding to distinguish the belts, this is best I can do. :)

Exactly what I thought. The colours are too.. well.. 'strong'...

omg.. they look... GORGEOUS!

I find the energy protection belts look a bit odd, though... I think white, as the color of energy most people are familiar with, would work better...

Maybe the fire belts need a bit more of an orange tint.

But, still, all in all, very nice!

Lets use the primary colors everywhere ... geez, this is not Might & Magic 4, this is Neocron. Means: I don't like them at all.

@mods... plz move such threads into the moding-forum like anybody else do

@maarten... plz use the moding forum for such threads and only do linking threads in the comunity talk like anybody else do, too

all this is becouse we all ( the modders ) want more people to look into the moding-forum...and such threads outside of it make this unreachable. about the half of the people still didnt have noticed there is one. its nothing against your great work but plz work together with us all and not against forum rules.

this was i'd wanted to say.

Have I missed something? Since when are we allowed to modify "protected" files in the game? Just curious..

The thread doesn't fit MJS' strict instructions for the modding forum.

Also, cross-linking threads is not allowed at all.

I dont like the belts as much as I liked the spell icons.The couor is too bold. Belts were fine the way they were, but to show a difference they should look different.I honestly don't know what I would do to make em look different.

LOL you lot are so easily pleased, from a practical point thumbs up. From an abobe Photoshop point, I could have equally done the same in roughly 5 minutes.

:o simple but effective? :cool:

You know what, you are totally right. It is NOT a good idea to use primary colors everywhere.

But this was (as Clownst0pper already mentioned) a 10 minute Photoshop job. I'm very busy atm and I really do not have a lot of time to spend on Neocron anymore.
I made these so there would be new belt graphics for the next version of NL PRO to at least introduce a way to tell them apart.

I will create new ones (probably even model them) when I have the time, which is something I really do not have right now.

PS KK, what I said in my first post, about you putting these in the game as well, ignore that, these are not good enough to be put ingame... ;)

LOL I didnt want to put a negative on the thread mate, just thought (from an adobe viewpoint) there a piece of piss. I might do my own in afew days time.

Your spell icons as well look simple enough, but as i said, they do there job and look loads better :cool:

How about 3D models? Those covers only 2D models.

TheEnemy
09-12-03, 15:34
Good job.

LVirus who cares about the 3D models? That's only needed if you take the belt off and throw it on the ground. Could be making more 2D gfx replacements instead!
