[RA2] Alternative Allied sidebar

Graion Dilach · Posted: Wed Jun 15, 2011 12:48 pm Post subject: [RA2] Alternative Allied sidebar

I said I will release it, so...

Here it goes, a sidebar which is built around that green Allied logo somewhere in the RA2.mix.

There were two reasons I decided to do this:
A, I like that logo better than the current eagle
B, All the other factions have alternative sidebars (Pre-RA2 Soviet, Renegade's and Blade's Yuri)

Shots:

Radar animation (sorry for looping backwards)

The zip also has a logo for loadscreens and stuff.

Thoughts are appreciated.

Imo are the buttons way too bright. It almost hurts to look at them and the contrast between the white text and bright buttons makes it hard to read the text.

Other than that it's quite nice.

Would work a lot better if it wasn't just simple palette edit (with addition of changed radar anim and backgrounds), as the bright blue colors don't turn out quite nice when you swap them into greens.

Yeah, way too bright.

OK, I darken it.

TBH, I thought the ugly 7th frame in the radar animation is more annoying, but meh.

Yeah, it's basically a palette-swap, because I didn't want to mess the sidebar up too much.

Anything else?

I think it would have been better with the usual blue but having the new Radar badge and Esc screen badge.

Maybe a dark ring around each individual section......not bad, bit bright maybe of the darker green from the center would make it look better.....not bad though. Like the green

Like others have said it's just too bright IMO and the green hue on the metal makes it lose contrast.

Not diggin' the green to be honest with you. Looks pretty shitty this way.

I dunno, if the green was darker I think it'd be improved. Something less blue, anyway.
