What happened to Xray Shader?

Post by Wingflier »

I don't see it in the downloadable lua widgets list or in the BA mod anymore. What happened to it?

Well, it got removed. Any particular reason it should be shipped with BA?

Looks a bit odd (imo) and is of no use gameplay wise, no?

As it was it looked a bit odd/too fluorent. But when I started playing spring, I needed it to see which player's color the units actually were. It still can look fairly well if you edit the widget so the intensity of the effect is diminished. (nice when recording a video maybe)

Anyway, I believe it was removed because of instabillity/support reasons. (with MT and all)

Well, not in particular. I removed it just because I didnt consider it as an essential widget that has to ship with BA. People who want it are free to install it manually of course.
