New tracking icons
The new tracking icons that have been injected into the mini-map to take place of the old, default tracking icons are a nice little touch. It makes the map look more like it's Carbonite only. My only problem with it is that the difference between a player and a NPC is whether the border around the icon is grey or yellow (respectively).
This makes it much more difficult to tell a player from an NPC, at first glance. Are these icons customizable or removable? I'd prefer some sort of customization ability, so that I could more clearly indicate when a player is in the area. Maybe the ability to change the colors of the different icon types? |
i use blipster and it breaks that addon alltogeather i use it because i like to have ally ppl as green diamonds and hord as X's but with the recent upgrade carbs setting are overrideing that addon :S

I'm not sure if this is too much to ask, but would you be able to provide the vector graphics used in creating these icons? I'd like to make subtle color changes like the old mini-map had (players were basically a lighter green/red than NPCs), but without ruining the Carbonite "feel."

I use GIMP from here:
http://www.gimp.org They are all layers in a GIMP xcf file. I attached it as a zip file if you want to play with that. |

Thank you very much. I've never used GIMP before. Definitely Linux-style. I like it.
Anyway, I made the friendly player icon blue, and the enemy player icon blink with a slight red glow. Quick changes, so I could gt back into the game, but I like how they turned out. I've attached them in case anyone is interested in the changes. Just unzip the 2 *.tga files to Carbonite\Gfx\Map in the WoW Addons folder. You might wanna back up the current MMOIcons.tga and MMOIconsG.tga, first. |
