Re: Changed Statis Effect Icons

But you've reserved the space in memory for four copies of that identical icon? What kind of retardedness is that?

I'm sure you're aware, but the entire game is set up like that.

Amazing that everytime you zone to a new area, it takes the time to load all the textures for that area. Which means, it stops using one texture and starts using another. Would be great if it changed textures everytime, though.

Using POLUtils and loooking through everything trying to find out my Menu Background info for the tutorial I did, I saw SO MUCH redundant crap. I literally saw the same exact groups of textures hundreds of times. No size, color, alpha, or shape difference. Only difference is that one texture is pulled for one thing somewhere and another for another.

This game could seriously be about half the size it is.

Re: Changed Statis Effect Icons

Why are there 2 files to download? Do you have to get them both? If not, could the file descriptions be a little more... descriptive?

I am "Lazureus" as you may have guessed. I am aware of the SJ-icon problem. Faranim has fixed it since I last released the icons, and I just haven't gotten around to updating my rar. I will very soon, though. His latest file has it fixed, I will update my rar accordingly so people downloading from my livejournal won't have the problem.

Re: Changed Statis Effect Icons

this would be cool if done right.

aside from the how-to posted in the status icon packages, there are a few other informations you will need to know about the status icons. Some are 8-bit, some are 32-bit, they have alpha maps for both (the 8-bit ones being very weird). Many of the 8-bit ones were 'upgraded' to 32-bit by faranim and myself in our packs, but .. yeah you might wanna know this.

Pebbles knows quite a bit about it works, and you will probably get a better explanation out of him or Faranim... as I'm terrible at explaining technical details to others.

I just checked Faranim's page and he is working on a new set but he is unable to logon to FFXI and test them for some reason.
I wont be able to help him test them till next week when I reactivate my account. Maybe some of you guys could help him?

I know that Brandson was able to release updated icon .dats today (which are essentially the same ones), but I guess Faranim has decided to alter them even further?

edit: Ah, I see. He's just adding new ones for the new abilities.
