Improved Faction Colors v. 5



Download (FE Nexus)

 

This mod improves the distinctness of the 'vanilla' faction colors for Fallen Enchantress.  Tarth, Resoln, Umber, Capitar, and Wildlands ZoC colors have been changed for better UI visibility.

***Changelog and Upcoming Changes***

v. 5 Changes:
+ Added new faction colors for Capitar and Umber.  Capitar is more lavender and Umber is more brownish orange.

v. 1 changes:
+ Changed Resoln faction color to a more intense blue to help differentiate from Pariden's faction color

v. 2 changes:
+ Removed the blue hue from the Tarth faction color
+ Darkened and added more blue to the Wildlands Player color

v. 3 Changes:
+ Made the mod modular by splitting up each faction color and crest into it's own XML file
+ Included alternate faction crest for Tarth and Resoln to more accurately reflect IFC colors

v.4 Changes:

Now compatible with ev4debug's Mod Manager

 

***Download, Installation, and Management***

 Simply download the .zip file via the supplied link.  Unzip the file directly into your mydocuments/mygames/fallenenchantress/mods folder. 

Turn Mods on in game options.

When updating versions it's highly recommended that you delete all previous versions of the mod before installing the newest version.

This mod is now modular, meaning you can leave out the components you don't want. 

To remove a mod component, open up the mods folder (path above) then open the IFC folder.  There should be several .xml files located in here which are associated with the different elements of the mod.  Just delete what you don't want.

If you have questions about this, feel free to ask in this thread.

 Enjoy!

 

Fellow modders: please feel free to include this work in your mods.

If it doesn't work, then it doesn't work. If he wants to copy and paste these numbers into his code to include in his mod, then that's just fine with me.

I'm not going to worry about inter-mod compatibility in this case. I feel like I made this is as modular as it can possibly be.

Sorry, wasn't trying to cause a ruckus, just prodding :S I have been too "tired" today to play anything or do these mod things, so haven't been looking, I will shaddap >_<

Sorry - wasn't trying to be snarky.   I have a long history of that...god or bad :P

I appreciate your asking, and I understand why.

Anyway I hope this mod can play nice with other mods.  :sun:

Coming soon!

Improved Faction Colors v. 2!

Reply #29 from Elemental Forums Top

Looking forward to it. Can I please steal some of the colours for Stormworld factions? With more factions it is more difficult to make them unique.

Please use whatever you want.

Ofcourse Mqpiffle want you to buy him a plastic rocket, wants to be an ingame hero, and want an entire race based off his forum avatar... ;)

Enjoy!

Preview of part of v. 3, hopefully to be released soon:

Reply #36 from Elemental Forums Top

Version 3 has been submitted.  I'll let y'all know when it's available!

Reply #37 from Elemental Forums Top

well, this whole "wait for mods to get approved" thing really sucks. modders should just stop using it altogether and upload. really anything is better than that wincustomize site.

Reply #38 from Elemental Forums Top

crimsongekko, I also hit the blasted wait for approval issues back in  the early entrenchment days and formed the same opinion and have NOT updated anything I originally posted to wincustomise due to the significant delays that the authourising has.

but dropbox has an issue( if too many downloads in a day (ie 20gb) and the account is frozen for three days repeat and longer freezes), as does other free hosting sites.

if you find a free host that does NOT have any significant issues please let us all know

My guess is they test it for virus and stuff like that, so I wont mind it too much.

Patience is a sin, and rushing stuff is a virtue... waaait a minute...

Ps Mqpiffle, I am officially a fan of what you are doing here!

Note to self - don't submit changes on saturday evening ;P

Hopefully it will be up sometime today, although it's a holiday here in the states, so we'll see.

Reply #41 from Elemental Forums Top

I like the changes here.   Yeah, we need to figure out the uploading thing.

Reply #42 from Elemental Forums Top

v.3 is live for you to enjoy!

 

Reply #46 from Elemental Forums Top

Updated to version 5...now including new Umber and Capitar colors.

Enjoy!

mqpiffle, the nexus file is hidden, is there any other links to download from?

harpo

 

Reply #48 from Elemental Forums Top

Oh, sorry!  I'll look into it.

edit: Everything seems to be good to me.  Folks have been downloading normally, not sure why it's hidden for you.

Reply #49 from Elemental Forums Top

upon re-testing your links in both the OP, reply 43 and 45, I am STILL getting the hidden file message, BUT when I manually explore nexus, I can find AND download it, so it looks like a link error on both OP, reply 43 & 45.

I suspect you would have a more downloads if you did not have the link to a hidden file issue from here.

harpo

and for those that are still looking for the file here isa link directly from nexus
