Yes, it's like the black outline is uneven on some letters.
Yeah I was just thinking about asking you Echoes, since I saw you posting in that thread as well Tongue
I thought you might know something.

Yes. The new one somehow gets rid of that. Did you edit it?

And just to maintain consistency, you're rebatching yours too in case we have any duplicates. (I'm sure we will)

And then just to be clear, I'm going to switch back to all of the original menu palette icons, but switching "other" and "system" with your updated versions.

Edit: Narcku, I've seen it too. Maybe when I finish dumping and getting things set up, I'll look more into the text stuff. It does drive me a little nuts sometimes, but the text "sheet" textures are a little tricky to mess with and there are a ton of different text files. I wouldn't even know where to begin.

Edit again: Bighead, I believe these are the 4 duplicate gem IDs (already retextured) that you were missing from your pack. They are newer than all of the rest of mine, so I'm making an assumption that they are the correct duplicates. (and yes, the duplicates were in fact all from gem crafting)

Ah, I see what the problem is. The textures themselves don't have any outlines. They are somehow added in-game, for whatever reason. Adding a slight (and I mean slight) amount of shadowing goes a long way toward fixing it. It needs more tinkering, and maybe even some re-alignment, but for now, these should look considerably better.

Edit: Note that these are the textures currently in the pack, I didn't remade anything here, which is why one of them is at a lower resolution.

Thanks Smile
Yeah, that's what I figured.
Btw, any chance of getting the old font too?
I kinda like it, but if you don't have it anymore, it's ok Tongue

I'm a bit confused by these two statements, perhaps it's because I'm tired. But are these attached files edited? They are a bit bigger than the versions we currently have. By you saying you didn't "remake" them, are you just saying that these are slightly altered and not rebuilt from the ground up?

Edit: I've attached the original (4.5U) versions of what Echoes posted above (for comparison purposes). Are these texts only used by cutscenes then?

Since I don't have a psd, I can't actually do anything with the fonts, so i can't tell what they are. I'm not even sure I was the one who made these in the first place, hahaha. I'll try and find out what it is though..

That's correct. I took the ones we currently have and added just a bit of shadow.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure they are cut-scene only. Not 100% sure yet.

Also, did you update to 4.5 yet, Echoes? Between 4.1 and 4.5 someone updated one of the text files to fix how the question marks looked in game. (They were off centered a little, so part of the curve in the ? was cut off). So using Echoes' might break question marks, lol. Who knows? So much stuff to keep track of.

Edit: I'm also going to try those new texts out and see if they make it look better. If they do, I'll just try and fix the ? on your new version if it looks weird in game.

I think the font is used for both in-game menu(status, equipment, etc) and cutscene.
It made the menu font a bit blurry, but maybe it'll work well on cutscene(black outline).
Haven't tried it on a cutscene yet.

I did, but you're better off double checking, since My texture folder is a mess right now, and I used the search function to find these quickly. Who knows where I pulled these from. Sorry about that!

Yeah, I just saw that too. Maybe reducing the shadows even more will help...

Ok, This time I lowered the opacity to about 15%. Am I imagining things or do these look better in menus now? Like, better than the ones in the pack? Am I crazy?

Edit: Nice catch frozen. Updated the attachment with the corrected question mark.

Yes, the question mark is definitely different between the two.

This ID: SX4P01_4c410ca0_2.png

I uploaded the "correct" one a couple posts ago. The files there are all from the 4.5 download. So none of them have the shadow effects Echoes added. I have no idea what he did to do it.

Edit: Uh oh, frozenwings' UI update incoming. Much photoshop, such skills. /sarcasm
