Blue cards by SilverStream~

[SilverStream~]

The Blue Card Edit is not a very advanced sprite edit, or particularly useful. It is a cosmetic improvement =)
Cards in general are considered special items to 99% of all players, and I think they should look more special aswell.

I changed the small card sprite that shows in your inventory, from greenish to stylish blue.
I think it looks really refreshing, and alot of people keep cards on themselves for selling or whatever reason.
The response I've gotten so far has been only positive, and alot of people are saying that it may be small, but definatly
changes the look a little. It's one of several touchups I'm making to make ro look better. So I might post more.



You can download it here:

How To Install:


All you need to do is unrar it, and put the "data" folder in your RO folder =)

This is what it should look like:







Here's a screenshot of it =)




If you compare it the old card, this one is blue and looks a ton better then the old green ~ :]

No problem =)

I'm still thinking of other things to change so it looks better~

Small change but it is pretty, have you released it on rune too?

Simple yet elegant!  I like it, nice work.

[SilverStream~]

Thank you =)

I was making a card change earlier to the card you see when you look at the properties of a card. But then I went out and forgot ._.

I'll finish it tomoroow since it's getting late now, and I'm not feeling creative atm =\

Nice guide. Was very useful for me.

^^ i agree, thank you very much for the guide =3

So, from what I understand, you're claiming copyright on a pre-existing sprite by Gravity? I could understand the copyright claim if you in fact created the sprite pixel by pixel on your own, but I'm not exactly seeing that anywhere?

My question to you would be, if Gravity used these.. color "edits", what actions would you take? I'm just curious, because there appears to be quite the controversy over your work. If you'd be so kind as to point me in the direction of what copyright claim you're using for your edits, I'd be greatly appreciative, as I have quite a few color edits myself that I'd love to toss around for usage as well.

Kudos on the guide as well, it's definitely useful for people who don't know their way around the folder set up.

can we not have the copyright debate on this topic please? X.x

[SilverStream~]

The only edit is the blue card one.

The Big card I created myself without taking any sprite from gravity. So this one, the Big Card edit I have copyright on as it's not stolen from anywhere, or any original edited and changed.


The blue card one I copyright because no one else has made one such as mine before. Also since it is a sprite taken from gravity, and used as reference for mine, which I buildt by using the 8 bit coloring function in photoshop, it would be fanart. And if no one have made it, or claimed to made it before(which no one has or done), I am free to say I made this piece of fanart, making me the author of it, and the artist which created the artwork.

By that I also get the copyright for it. As proof I have the psd files and reference files used to created both files.

can we not have the copyright debate on this topic please? X.x

Well he asked me, so I could atleast reply. And as I see it he didn't try and offend me in any way or flame. So I guess it's okay.

Ah! I see, thank you for the fast response. There's a lot of fuss about the claim at the moment, so you may wish to make it a bit more clear in the original post. The fuss isn't just from people here on RMS, but from a few friends who work on iRO who, when they saw this thread were asking me questions, because I apparently control what goes on here(?), lol.

Thanks for the clarification, however. =) Have you ever thought of creating additional color edits, and perhaps doing a little diddy in the client-side files that would have a color shown for each different card type? ie, Orange for Accessory, Blue for Weaponry, Purple for Shield, et cetera? The potential for this system is high, and was something I've been hoping for over the past few years. From my understanding if you continued your work from just the blue cards, this would be the first edit of it's kind (apart from the Materia system) that I've personally seen.

[SilverStream~]

Changing each sprite to a color, for weapon, shield, headgear etc would take a really long time. Since they are single files, and each file would have to be changed.

Atm I don't have the time for that =\
And I don't know how to code either, so I cant code a system that differentiates between these things.


Plus I didn't really understand what you were meaning xD explain a bit deeper?




Updated the first post so that the information is correct.

I think we all know the original white card sprite is from gravity. XD

I love the color per type of card suggestion, Silver you could just make 6 different colors and let server owners take care of updating the resnametable file, that's basically the only file that needs changing to show a different sprite for them in game. Or I could help you with it if you need.
