As the topic reads, i need one or more guinea pig(s) for the upgrades.spr for ingame feedback.
I would also like to know if there is a way to change the postion of those sprites, and if it is, where do i do it?

If you decide to help me i wuld like to know wich resolution you are using and any other valuable information, and ofcourse what you think about them.
It no fancy hightech version, it's as small and simple i could make them.



version3
<a href="http://www.filecrunch.com/file/~0qmy0h" target="_blank">Download upgrades3.spr</a>

version4
<a href="http://www.filecrunch.com/file/~56gg53" target="_blank">Download upgrades4.rar</a>

<!--coloro:#FF0000--><span style="color:#FF0000"><!--/coloro-->EDIT:<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc--> i've added a set only made of chevrons and icons, no text.

Edit again.... Added a set without the HA, MT, JP icons, because they are kind of obvious, you sure will notice if you can fly or not. So it's superminimalistic

deleted the first 2 versions, they were too horrible, saved the 3rd on incase some of you don't notice when you have mt, ha or jp.

added a screenshot, there is icons gor HA and welder aswel, but i didn't get one

    Pictures are nice :-P

    The sprites themselves are minimalist, but well done, and clear. I like the chevrons for upgrades, but I don't like the words as much. I understand how they can be necessary in a proclaimed "minimalist" set, but I wish there were something more expressive, like a clear shape or color instead of a word. Maybe if you made the words different colors so that you could distinguish them at a glance?

    [edit] I like the second set better than the first - but the spacing between the chevrons is irregular. Is that on purpose?[/edit]

    I can't test them ingame properly myself atm, so i wasn't sure about the text.
    I tried making mini nades etc but it looked horrible so i gave it up atleast till i can try it myself.
    It would be nice if you could show me a pic of the irregular spacing so i could fix it.

    I also would like to remove the MT text/icon, because it's quite obvious if you have it or if you don't, but it will make a gap from the ha icon/text to the armor or whatever is next in the line, and i don't know if it's posible to change their postion like in the weapon.txt's.

    Oh, and i would apreciate any ides of what to use, and still make it clean and simple without using text.

    The version 3 icons are well spaced, and easy to recognise at a glance. Good Job.
