Redux Strategic Icons
-
Hey macdeffy. I really like how you have created original and distinct icons for the Commanders. I was wondering, if it were possible to change the colour of the surrounding Commander icon corners from white to red? As this would look similar to the highlighted red surrounding the Commander icons in campaigns. I also sometimes think that I have selected the Commander when I haven't, due to the white surrounding corners. If white is still the preferred colour, then perhaps an alternative to have the red colour, or if others want other colours? Thanks

which size were you using? i thought i had made them all gold for non selected, and white for selected, but perhaps i only did that on the 1440 size. But let me know which size regular, 1080, or 1440 and clarify if you wanted the selected to be red, or the non selected icon to show red, or both. Can't swear i'll get it to it immediately, but i'll throw up a link when i do.

Sorry, I should have specified which of your mods I was using. I'm only using the default "Redux ACU Icons" from the Vault, as I'm trying different creator's mod icons that incorporate different mods. So the red outline is only applicable to ACU's, whether its selected or not. When you select any unit, the blue default FA corner selectors are highlighted anyhow The mod in particular only contains ACU icons anyhow. Thanks macdeffy

My issue with this mod is that it is a bit hard to see if a structure on the minimap is dead.

I'll have to take a look as I'm not sure what you mean. I didn't notice anything myself. I wasn't even aware anything changed on the mini map.
If it is a size issue then using the new link above rather than vault uses default size as opposed to what is in vault.
If you mean something else i need to know what that is.

To reiterate, and make it easier to understand what I mean, I'm only using the default "Redux ACU Icons" from the Vault. As far as I can tell, you only have that version in the vault, and not listed above in a link. I was hoping to change from default white selected and unselected ACU icons, to red selected and unselected. Thanks

Maybe there is another way to scale icons for unscouted units? At high screen resolution they are extremely small.
How Advanced Strategic icons mod scaled them? Looks like Inside the .nxt file only the icons themselves. There are no other parameter files there. -
You will have to use ui_strategicscalesize command. Can no longer use nxt files.
I'm not sure if this affects un scouted icons though.
-
Yes it does

It works, but the icon borders look like an 8-bit game. Apparently the Advanced Strategic icons mod takes a different approach.
Interesting fact that this command does not scale the flying nuke icon. But it was scaled when the nxt file worked.
