Hi, thanks again for uploading the old version of your mod, could you upload version 3.12 of this mod too?
Archailect 2 Nov, 2024 @ 11:32pm 
I love these mods! :D
boris 1 Nov, 2024 @ 12:40pm 
Looks like it's fixed now! Sorry, I spoke too soon. I should have known you'd be on top of it. Thank you very much.

Hi boris!
Even after today's update of this mod?

I have a similar issue with starbase icons, but I don't use the Starbase Extended mod. I'm using only the mods listed below, and my icons are shifted out of place starting after adding the Grand Archive DLC.

mods I'm using:
Color coded pop status icons
Colored icons
Colored map icons
Colored progress bars
Enhanced Galaxy 2.3 dark core
Reduce aura graphics
Softer hyperlanes

Thanks for your great mods!

@acideiffel Aha, thanks, I will change the load order. I apologize if I came off as criticizing. I do like your mods!

Hi G0ldheart.

It's simple...
You just have to change the loading order!

Load Order:

Colored Map Icons
...
Starbase Extended 3.0

That was it. :)

PS: The icons in "Starbase Extended" are from my mod "Colored Map Icons NSC3 Version"....
It would have been nice to ask! :ExpertQuack:
Demognomicon 7 Aug, 2024 @ 5:51pm 
@acideiffel - Some things are offset like starbases. I am using Starbase Extended 3.0 if that matters. I will play a new game and see what else. ** It looks like it is just the starbases.
acideiffel  [author] 6 Aug, 2024 @ 10:42am 
Hello G0ldheart!
What are you trying to say?
That it doesn't work? :winter2019surprisedyul:
Demognomicon 4 Aug, 2024 @ 5:54pm 
I think this version is still offset on a few things in 3.12 (not using NSC or Mega)

kitten its time to update
Rhorbarius 30 Jan, 2024 @ 7:27pm 
Hell yeah, that's exactly what was needed!
acideiffel  [author] 30 Jan, 2024 @ 2:48pm 
ahh okay...
You can delete these four files!

ship_icons_cloaked_type
ship_icons_mixed_type
ship_icons_type
ship_overlay_icons

You can find it here:

Yes, the original green from vanilla is much easier to see. The new one the mod applies is too similar to yellow neutral units. My colorblindness makes it hard to tell them apart.
acideiffel  [author] 27 Jan, 2024 @ 3:19pm 
Hello Rhorbarius!
Sorry for the late response! :Hire:
Was on the way....
I don't understand it exactly. Do you want the original green from Stellaris?
I have made an overview of the icons which this mod replaces. (original VS mod) :steamthis:
Rhorbarius 22 Jan, 2024 @ 9:36am 
I love that this makes the game map more colorful in subtle ways, but is there a way to keep the soft green color for units under your control? I had to stop using it because I was constantly mixing up the new color for allied units and neutral units.
Pokesus 23 Dec, 2023 @ 11:31pm 
Cool, is just sometimes i readed "ironman compatible" and "achievements non aviable/compatible" at the same mod, so i was a bit worried. (weird but happened)
So, thanks :3
acideiffel  [author] 23 Dec, 2023 @ 1:29pm 
Of course! :mailedfist:
Ironman = Achievement compatible! :steamthis:
Pokesus 23 Dec, 2023 @ 1:23pm 
Achievement compatible?
acideiffel  [author] 21 May, 2023 @ 1:27pm 
Only map icons! No ethic traits icons here.
StefanAoBzh 21 May, 2023 @ 3:42am 
What about ethics traits ? =)
acideiffel  [author] 12 May, 2023 @ 4:49pm 
It's just the Ship overlay icons that are red.
I thought that you could see the fleets and the ranks better. Also your own fleets
I wrote below how to delete it!
antiism 11 May, 2023 @ 12:24am 
when you update this would it be possible to make the stars on the military ships red?
Lordlony 9 May, 2023 @ 12:39pm 
With the newest version this is incompatible with ship overlay icons
Old Ben 16 Mar, 2023 @ 12:59pm 
Thanks for the info to get back to the green ship icons.
acideiffel  [author] 2 Mar, 2023 @ 6:36pm 
Sorry was not online for a long time ....
You can delete "ship_overlay_icons.dds" in this mod!
*:\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\281990\1381214767\gfx\interface\icons

I thought it might be easier to distinguish opposing ships.... :Quack_Quack_Boom:
Graham 3 Dec, 2022 @ 12:24am 
Please can I have a way to get back my all green ship icons! the multi-coloured ships are messing with my brain.
acideiffel  [author] 23 Nov, 2022 @ 5:46pm 
Sorry for the late reply! :Hire:
The screenshots are very old. I'll make new ones on occasion!
Can be that I had it before and didn't find it nice on the galaxy map.
I'll think about inserting it again.
Shoff 5 Aug, 2022 @ 10:46pm 
After looking at screenshots provided by other comments, I got curious and opened the .DDS image file containing the ship symbol sprites.

As is, this mod uses the default symbol sprites for the basic ship types. The only icons which are colorized in this mod are the system view icons.

So the 1st & 3rd image are misrepresentative of the mod as it is now.
Shoff 5 Aug, 2022 @ 3:44pm 
QUESTION: I see a discrepancy in the provided images of the colored map icons. Among other things, I am specifically looking for colored ship type icons (i.e., so a science ship can be more easily distinguished from a construction ship).

In the 1st & 3rd images, these ship types clearly have different colored icons next to the ship symbol; science ships have a blue atom symbol & construction ships have a yellow wrench symbol.

However, in the 4th image, all ship types have green symbols, which is the default vanilla color (based on ownership / neutrality hostility).

So what's the deal? Can someone explain the 4th image? Is that an error, an old version, or what? I want to be sure this mod has colored symbols for the science VS construction ships (plus colony ships & military fleets, ideally).

I've been using this https://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2814526891 which has patches for NSC2 and GigaStructural Engineering. Same thing really
Phil 4 Jul, 2022 @ 5:41pm 
Just found this -- https://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2783968122 -- acideiffel made a patch for Gigastructures, NSC2, and both together.
Phil 4 Jul, 2022 @ 5:03pm 
And it didn't work. Oh well.
Phil 4 Jul, 2022 @ 4:53pm 
@Botroas -- link is broken and I'm having the same issues.
Botroas 14 May, 2022 @ 4:08am 
@AngleWyrm - Do you use other mods?
I had similar issues when having EHOF (now in Gigastructures) mod.
RoAdd made a fix for it, you can find it there, if you need it.

@★REM★,
Notice my post on misaligned graphics is dated April 9th. Stellaris 3.4 patch was released May 12th. So no, it's not because of the 3.4 update.
★REM★ 13 May, 2022 @ 2:00am 
The misaligned icons are because of the 3.4 update, sometimes looks like paradox break up simple things on purpose just to laugh at modders.
AngleWyrm 12 May, 2022 @ 5:58pm 
I suspect the misaligned graphic is part of the image file rather than the code.
Azona 12 May, 2022 @ 2:38pm 
Mod does not cause major issues but graphical glitches appear when loading this mod on on mining stations ect
Dobrognev 12 May, 2022 @ 11:34am 
After the update, the same error appeared. I reinstalled everything and didn't help. With what can be connected? What is the load order for these mods?
AngleWyrm 9 Apr, 2022 @ 3:48pm 
I'm getting misaligned starbase graphics. I've placed this mod as the last in mod load order. Is this a known conflict? https://i.imgur.com/wgyACXA.png
Grubbs008 28 Nov, 2021 @ 8:43am 
Awesome, thank you.
acideiffel  [author] 28 Nov, 2021 @ 3:53am 
Hello Grubbs :)
I made an extra mod for Gigastructural Engineering!
You can test him ....
The link is above.
Grubbs008 26 Nov, 2021 @ 12:47pm 
Yeah if there is any chance you could make this work with Gigastructures/UI Dynamic that would great, altogether, the map icons are broken.
