Sorry to hear about IRL. Hope things calm down fo ryou and you'll be able to be back soon dude. Blue is very much a great UI colour.

I know this is not beiong updated any more. Bug bummer liked the skin color changes but in 2.0 the ship designer bugs out skewing the icon graphics to be unreadable. Anyone know of any up to date UI Color changers. Wish the game would give you a color option for UI thats just silly.

Will you update the mod for 2.0?
JAD636 12 Feb, 2018 @ 9:47am 
Do you know if anyone else is having this problem?
Currently trying it without any other mods

@twich.tv - What do you mean? Nothing in this mod should stop you from using it in MP, even if you are the ONLY player using it. It is purely visual.

Unfortunately, my PC has crash and I’m still working on fixing it. Hopefully I can get that working before or soon after Patch 2.0 comes out.

i cant use this in mp anymore?

@shop13699 - A specific language mod, or if you use any other language in Stellaris (changed in the launcher) it won't work?

@Does_Bruno_Mars_Is_Gay - Can you show me a screenshot of what exactly you mean? If there is a glitch, I want to fix it, but I'm not entirely sure what you are referring to.

So IDK if anyone has said this or even if this matters but, when you go to chose a planet to chose to build a colony ship you have no dropdown box to chose from.

@EVERYONE - I have created a compatibility patch between this mod and 1080p Overhaul. I apologize this took me so long to come around and make. The link is in the description, first one under the "Compatibility" section. Please let me know if there are any remaining issues you can trace back between this mod and 1080p Overhaul. Enjoy everyone!

@Visc - I am assuming you use Windows as your operating system. You need to go to Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\281990\1169323169

This folder should have a zip file containing all contents from this mod. All you need to do is open it with an appropriate program (WinRAR, 7zip, etc) and delete the "interface" folder. This should allow compatibility so you can use your local language mod.

Please note you will have to do this EVERY TIME I update this mod, but it should allow you to use the Russian Localisation mod.
Visc 21 Nov, 2017 @ 4:14pm 
@Crusader Vanguard, apparently somewhere in the files of the mod in the folder of steam?
Crusader Vanguard  [author] 20 Nov, 2017 @ 5:20pm 
@Visc - It has to do with the mod overwriting all interface files. This mod (when I took over managing it) had serveral interface files overwritten. I've removed most, but not all. You need to remove the interface files from this mod.

Do you know how to do this?
Visc 20 Nov, 2017 @ 9:03am 
Hello!

Something mod began to conflict with this mod - Russian Localisation and GUI Fix by GEKS ( https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=681483874 ) - if they run together, the GEKS mode does not work, and the version of the game is written old. Previously, this was not ... what could it be?
QuantumGhost 17 Nov, 2017 @ 4:46pm 
Thanks for your help,the issue is solved:steamhappy:
Crusader Vanguard  [author] 17 Nov, 2017 @ 6:54am 
@EVERYONE - I have altered the blue font color to hopefully make it contrast just a little and be easier to read. If this new font color is not to most people's liking, it is very easy for me to switch back to VJ's original blue. Let me know what you guys prefer.

QuantumGhost - To be honest, I'm not 100% sure what is causing your issue. I went through when I updated this mod and made sure all the simp_chinese lines were added to the interface files. I have gone back through and found ways to remove certain files that were ultimately unnecessary, so perhaps this fixed your issue. Do let me know.
QuantumGhost 17 Nov, 2017 @ 4:11am 
When I use this mod.My chinese words all turn into question mark(?).What's wrong with my game.I really love this mod:steamsad:
Crusader Vanguard  [author] 10 Nov, 2017 @ 5:33pm 
@Everyone - Mod Updated for the following supports:

1. Updated Rebuild mod support since Petruxa fully updated the main mod for Patch 1.8.
2. Support for Plentiful Traditions, Additional Traititions, & Extended Traditions was added. See description above for links.
Crusader Vanguard  [author] 7 Nov, 2017 @ 6:31am 
@kebw1144 - It's actually more of a guessing game for me too. LOL. First value is the color, like something from a 1 or 2 point color wheel, the second is saturation, and the third is value/brightness. If I was certain the hue value could only go to 1, then I would tell you to look at a color wheel, but I've seen 1.5 before. My best suggestion is you make an educated guess and keep tweaking.

The other thing to note is for certain values (like the hyperlane color), it seems like I can only get the game to accept "color ranges." If I put the color to be a very specific blue, I can only get a light blue or a dark blue despite my efforts. It's weird.
Gold Battle Moose 6 Nov, 2017 @ 9:57pm 
In the defines file how are you determing the color for HSV, I am assuming that its defined in sHSV hence the numbers but what program are you using to determine the color for the life of me I cant seem to track down a sHSV color picker, awsome work CHEERS!
Crusader Vanguard  [author] 30 Oct, 2017 @ 3:01pm 
@EVERYONE - Since the red text seems to be the number one problem/issue, I have changed the red coloring to be orange, specifically an orange taken from official images of Mass Effect Omni Tools, and I would like to know if this new font colors works for the "highlight" text parts of the game. This orange takes the place of the same orange used in the vanilla game, so what you see in orange was orange in the vanilla game.
Crusader Vanguard  [author] 29 Oct, 2017 @ 3:52am 
@v1per @EVERYONE - Nice call on the color. It's still "red" but much easier on the eyes and still clear to read. I've updated the mod to include the color suggestion you made. If it pans out, I'll give you a credit for the text color.
v1per 28 Oct, 2017 @ 1:35pm 
Well, this particular red on blue can be a bit hard to read sometimes. Try #ff4b36 instead of what you have. I didn't change the hue at all. Just changed the saturation and the lightness a bit.
Crusader Vanguard  [author] 28 Oct, 2017 @ 11:07am 
@brainkrieg - Thank you for saying something. I don't care if people like or dislike the Red, I need a good pool of people to judge. The problem with that is most people only come here when they need to complain about something or note something is wrong. LOL
brainkrieg 28 Oct, 2017 @ 8:32am 
i love the red - very striking!
Crusader Vanguard  [author] 28 Oct, 2017 @ 7:31am 
@EVERYONE - I've made an update to address some issues you guys have pointed out. I'm hoping to compromise with you guys on the red here, so this is what I've done:

1. I fixed the issues with the fleet health bars. They are green again, and will remain that way. Apologizes to all for that confusion. That's a place red definately shouldn't be the "full" bar.

2. Changed the "building has an upgrade" button from blue to red to distinguish it from certain tile backgrounds, like Ocean.

3. All progress bars have been changed from red to blue. I understand this was a little too much of a "clash," and have changed it.

IMPORTANT: I have left the red text alone for now. I want a lot of opinions on this one. Personally, I think the red text looks good with the UI and I don't think it clashes, but if enough people ask for a change to say Orange, I'll definately consider it. I also want to hear from those who want to KEEP the red. Need the "whole" picture.
Crusader Vanguard  [author] 28 Oct, 2017 @ 5:48am 
@v1per - I've had a few requests to make all my red (or at the very least my red test) be remade to orange, do you agree with this? Would Orange be better than red given how you look at red in these types of games? I would like to keep it red, but if Orange is a better option, I'm willing to do that at least. But I would like another opinion: should I change ALL of it or just maybe the text?

As for your suggestions, both of these have merit and I agree. I was meaning to fix the health bar issue anyway.
Visc 28 Oct, 2017 @ 12:49am 
@Crusader Vanguard - big thx!
v1per 27 Oct, 2017 @ 5:56pm 
Sir, the latest update is awesome :) Good job. I do have a couple of comments:

1) The upgrade button for the planet buildings should be a different color. Either orange or red. The blue can get lost pretty easily in planets like Ocean Worlds.

2) I don't like the health circles being flipped with full health being red and damage being green. That looks weird. Would be better with blue for health and keep the red as damage.

Keep it up!

@Visc - Images have been updated to be 1920x1080p.
Crusader Vanguard  [author] 27 Oct, 2017 @ 7:49am 
@EVERYONE - I have released an update to address some of the overbearing color issues:

1. The red outlines for the regular UI boxes are gone. You won't have to share at red on a regular basis anymore. If I missed a red outline for a box that IS NOT selected, let me know. The red outlines and boxes should now only be used for highlighted/selected UI elements.

2. I have tweaked the coloring of the player, allied, and neutral UI elements for fleet/planet/spaceport/system ownership. Your elements should be blue, the neutral a light blue, and allied a purple/violet. Hopefully this will make this easier to see.

3. I have completely switched the red & orange text fonts so that hopefully there is not so much overbearing red text on the screen. If it is all red, it was all "orange" before this mod.

I hope this helps you guys. For people who are color impaired/blind, I'll do what I can, but I'm not entire sure how I can help you.

@Visc - I'll see what I can do about that.
Visc 27 Oct, 2017 @ 3:54am 
Thank you! Only the screenshots in the preview mode can be with a higher resolution? And it's too small :)
Crusader Vanguard  [author] 26 Oct, 2017 @ 3:16pm 
@EVERYONE - I just released a MASSIVE update for this mod, leaving very little of the vanilla UI untouched in my quest to make this feel completely unique from the vanilla game. If you believe I missed anything or something isn't working properly, please let me know so I can fix it. Enjoy!
Crusader Vanguard  [author] 18 Oct, 2017 @ 12:53pm 
@innosflew - Yeah, I'll see what I can do.
Innos 18 Oct, 2017 @ 12:21pm 
This is one of the best UI skins out there. It would be nice if there was a compatibility patch for the UI Overhaul 1080p Plus mod.
Crusader Vanguard  [author] 16 Oct, 2017 @ 6:27am 
@v1per - That would be good. I believe I can "fix" the box sides so it looks better. It's a little weird, but for the most part it looks good. I'll see if I can produce an image later.
v1per 16 Oct, 2017 @ 3:44am 
@Crusader Vanguard: Gotcha. I'm swamped right now but I might think of maintaining that patch later. Cheers!
Crusader Vanguard  [author] 15 Oct, 2017 @ 5:18pm 
@v1per - I found the issue. 1080p resizes the boxes and background for the ship listing in the designer, which means if I fix it for 1080p, it look really weird with the vanilla UI scaling. The only way to fix this is with a separate compatibility patch, which I'm not currently invested in. So for now, the current minor bug will have to do.
Crusader Vanguard  [author] 15 Oct, 2017 @ 11:48am 
@v1per - There does seem to be a conflict somewhere. I'll see if I can resolve it, but I make no promises.
v1per 15 Oct, 2017 @ 11:41am 
@Crusader Vanguard: Yes, I mean the ship listing on the left. It is indeed a small issue, just makes it hard to quickly identify what is what. Didn't want to sound unappreciative of the work btw. This is probably the best UI mod here on Steam.
Crusader Vanguard  [author] 15 Oct, 2017 @ 11:03am 
@v1per - Do you mean the weird outline boxes for the ship listing on the left? That is a conflict, but it shouldn't interfere with you selecting anything. Or do you mean something else? I have used 1080p with this mod every time I tested, and except that dropped outline box issue (which is extremely minor) I have not seen any issues.
v1per 15 Oct, 2017 @ 10:46am 
Would be nice if this worked well with the 1080p mod. For some reason the ship designer always get messed up.
Visc 14 Oct, 2017 @ 6:30pm 
Nice! Thx!
