New lobby client images? Reason: colors

TradeMark · Post by **TradeMark** » 08 Jun 2006, 17:54

Since I found out that there actually is different colors between some player state images, I made better colors for the images:

battlestate2.bmp:

state2.bmp:

I cant see much difference between the original ones.

Anyone against these changes?

I have no problem seeing the colours, but it couldn't hurt.

I have no idea whatsoever what you are trying to say, the images you made are the same as currently used by the lobby?

Me neither, I can easily tell whether a game is open, full, or in progress.
Though I really would like those new exp pips I made to be implemented.

I think he cant see the difference between yellow and green because of his eyes or monitor..
I have no problem with different symbols.

I know there are a few colour-blind people in our community.

Wasnt there some discussion about a color blind skin a little while ago?

how about simply different shapes?

No, i think the point is that the current points have maybe 5 pixels that have the color.

Sorry, when running my desktop above 1280, its also very hard for me to see, too.

Yes, i am "colorblind", and i cant see much difference between yellow and neon green (HEX FFFF00 and 00FF00)

Nope, they are orange, the original ones were yellow (or green?).

I tested it, and it looks more better with those images, i can easily say which is which.

Ah ok, yours are a bit darker I guess :)
I'll need #5 as well (same with P inside it) and possibly #11, check the TASClient/Graphics folder in repository. Neuralize made original ones, you should ask him if you'll need source format (I need 24-bit bitmaps though).

I am also red/green deficient, and it took me a while before I realised there was a difference.
