Blue cards by SilverStream~

Mh I get it now.

I was actually doing a test of a card, on the infotab(when you right click a card), but I discarded it.

I have to think of something to put there =) Right now I'm about to eat so see you later~

Well the image when you right click a card is what we refer to as the "collection" image. The "item" image is what appears in the inventory and the "dropsprite" well its the card when it's dropped on the floor (usually it's very similar to the "item" image, but instead of a bmp it's a spr format and needs an act, yours is larger but thats fine, easier to spot I guess.

Looking forward to this edit ^_^

Yeah I know about spr files, if not I wouldn't been able to make the big card edit lol xD

But I have little clue about what the act file is there for. Apparently it can be opened in photoshop, and it's some kind of alpha layer? idk.

I'll see what I can do.

._.' I'd rather edit my own, no offense xD

But I'll be home in around.. 12 hours.. depending on the bus~ So I'll do it then. Now is just... too late.. <.< And I've had it on hold for a while now =.='

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.

That's quite possible to do without making source edits.
It's just a matter of organizing the cards by the categories and then adding the appropriate sprites and what not in the clientside files. It's a simple thing to do, it's just time consuming.
You'd need to get every card in your server sorted. But you can use the RMS card list on the homepage for it.

The act file tells the game where the sprite goes on a character, in the case of a headgear or wings it's important, you want the sprite to be properly placed on the character, for dropsprite you can use the same for any dropped item, the position will be on the floor. As for photoshop, it recognizes it but can't read it properly, you need actor/actor2, but like I said for items like your cards you don't need to edit the act, just use the original one of the normal RO card.

So how do we manage to differ between the six types of cards?

Right now there's only one type.

You can just make the sprite and let us worry about assigning each color to the various cards.

I completely forgot about this ._. I have no idea now when I'll do the cards... so much else came up =(

Isn't it as easy as just going photoshop and click color balance? o_O

It's not so easy to maintain the flu, while learning css, building a website, trying to eat and drink(because of the flu), reading in general(big headacke) and I can't speak because of sore tonsils. And then start using my eyes even more to look at the colors closely for some tiny cards.

=(

Hi all,

I have been looking for these super sized cards done by SilverStream~ but most of the sites (Megaupload, RUNE, etc) hosting them seem to be dead...

No doubt this is a really useful sprite and I'm sure many would really appreciate it if anyone could post another copy of this onto the internet.

Thanks in advance
