Bolisaris 29 Jul, 2019 @ 1:33pm 
I am clearing out my mods and getting rid of unsupported mods, this being one of them.

I love that you used the Ethnocentric font!

gripenblau 29 May, 2015 @ 9:42am 
gone do DX11? Like your mod :)

@nothing_suspicious I know for a fact it does not take upwards of three months to fix the lighting issue. He's clearly just working on other mods and ignoring this one completely as he's dropped several new mods lately. Which is fine, it'd just be nice to see either the source models so someone else could fix it or at the very least have a response saying why he's not fixed it or if he even plans to.

Right now he's abandoned it.

Am seeing the same as Evil Beaver; light effect is showing through the block behind the sign, not in front of it.
jkat718 5 Apr, 2015 @ 10:00am 
Restrcted Area is misspelled, it should be "Restricted Area" (with an "i" after the "r" in "Restricted").
Wolf 4 Apr, 2015 @ 9:34pm 
need one for life support
as i built a room with o2 generators tanks and stuff
The Evil Beaver 3 Apr, 2015 @ 2:17am 
Glowing part is not working for me, the Light is comming fomr behind the signs
stedo 22 Mar, 2015 @ 8:34pm 
not perfect but still excelent. Very usefull in its current state.
fully fixed these will be awesome :)
Arty 13 Mar, 2015 @ 4:04pm 
can you guys please stop b*tching about the problems already? he is aware of them by now and is trying to fix them. before you make an ignorant comment, please take into consideration how hard modding can be and how constantly complaining does nothing. you should be more supportive of his (and for that matter, anyone's) work.
Barthy 22 Feb, 2015 @ 7:36pm 
So sad and i had another problem with one his mod.. the Ore refiners.. they dont work neither... looks like he's out of business or on something else now...
Crimson Revenant 12 Feb, 2015 @ 9:28pm 
Please fix the spelling issues and lighting thing... cause it makes or breaks how well people will like this mod.
J0K3R6397 29 Jan, 2015 @ 12:08pm 
Was kinda hoping these were slanted, or had angled placement options like their respective icons, and didn't overlap so many blocks like some of them do.
Neronix17 29 Jan, 2015 @ 9:31am 
Is this really still broken? I'd fix it myself if the source models were available!
matticitt 26 Jan, 2015 @ 10:24pm 
I'd be awesome ... IF IT WORKED! The light is placed behind the sign, so when you place it the light is placed inside of a wall. You can't see sh*t!
Эльфик 24 Jan, 2015 @ 7:41am 
can you make a half-size version of this please
Bobmin357 17 Jan, 2015 @ 9:37pm 
Considering the quality of Eikester's other mods, this one is really disappointing.

The lighting seems to be complete broken and some of the signs are far too big to be usuable.

I've included a link to a small sampling of the signs, the landing bay sign is a dark ugly blackish thing and even changing the lighting effect offered no improvement. The Enter sign is supposed to be blue and the communications sign is at the default settings. All three signs are on the bottom of an unlit platform so that no external light would impact them.

Unlike Eikester's other mods, I can't really recommend this mod. The signs are way too big to be usuable and the lighting just doesn't work.
Benemen 3 Jan, 2015 @ 8:36am 
Just downloaded to check it out. I think the lighting issue may reach back to when the spotlights were broken. Too bad....
Senatic 16 Dec, 2014 @ 5:28am 
It was a good mod but hasn't worked now for quite a while now, combined with the many spelling errors I'm unsubbing. A shame since it was one of the better looking sign sets.
Tiger 9 Dec, 2014 @ 5:17pm 
Spelling check is sorely needed on several signs.
MagnusEffect 24 Nov, 2014 @ 3:15pm 
of course... this could all be fixed if they just let you type stuff on a default sign like Minecraft lets you :(
MagnusEffect 24 Nov, 2014 @ 3:11pm 
Suggestion: canwe get a smaller ("lite") version of this? love the mod, but (for example) I don't really need both an "assembly" and "disassembly" sign when we have a single part that does both.

ideally, signs for parts that are *actually in the game* (with a few other necessary additions) would be easier on our G-menu:

Example:
Bathrooms (lots of mods for this)
Bridge (for cockpits of large ships)
Cargohold
Control (alternative to Bridge for activities not related to flying a large ship)
Crew Quarters (need at least one of these since there are so many mods for this as well)
Deck (A-F like before for large ships)
Docking (for connectors/merge blocks)
Engineering (for assemblers and building areas)
Hangar
Living Quarters (for civilian ships/stations)
Magazine (proper naval term for ammunition storage on large ships)
Maintenance (for repair areas)
Med Bay
Mess Hall (same as with Crew Quarters)
Reactor
Refinery
...
did I miss any? cant think of anything else that is really needed.
MagnusEffect 24 Nov, 2014 @ 3:10pm 
short term solution until light sourcing is fixed:
turn off the glow to the signs; not like you really need it anyway.
Angel 24 Nov, 2014 @ 8:36am 
they don't glow in the front... showing up at the back?
Crimson Revenant 19 Nov, 2014 @ 9:04pm 
Hmm... try experimenting with the lights? I mean they probably changed something that mirrored lights or something... idk.
Psycho0124 19 Nov, 2014 @ 7:19am 
Great mod, much thanks! A "Stairwell" sign would sure be useful.
Eikester  [author] 19 Nov, 2014 @ 7:13am 
i know about the light issue but i think its a Game Bug, the Dummy is correctly shown ingame its just for whatever reason mirrored on the backside
Crimson Revenant 17 Nov, 2014 @ 9:13pm 
Please fix the wierd lighing issue soon,
Senatic 14 Nov, 2014 @ 6:48am 
Yup the lights are currently broken. Glowing from the backside for some reason.
p3st|cIdE 13 Nov, 2014 @ 1:41am 
Yo, the Observation Room is spelled incorrectly. Also I'd like to see the words: Forward, Aft, Port, Starboard, Dorsal, Ventral, Auxiliary, Main, Room, Recreation, Shuttle Bay, Life Support/Environmental, and maybe more! Try to factor the words out; I'd rather have a separate sign for common words than try to make every possible combination into a unique sign. I can combine the signs like "Main Laboratory" and "Science Elevator" and the longer phrases make really huge signs anyway that are hard to place.
Gorrir 10 Nov, 2014 @ 7:01am 
Since the latest update all signs seem to be glowing from the backside but not from the front.
RGB Productions 24 Oct, 2014 @ 5:02pm 
10-24-14 i would like to try it out!
MVGmacks 23 Oct, 2014 @ 8:21am 
Any chance of Putting in open and close signs. These signs are fantastic and are featured in all of my builds since mod release. Keep up the great work
willem.huiskamp 13 Oct, 2014 @ 10:49am 
This one must be suggested before, but when building a station, as a sort of travel hub, I am missing the signs 'Arrivals' and 'Departures'. It would be nice if you could find time to add those. Thanks in advance :)

BrokenEye the True False Prophet 24 Sep, 2014 @ 9:58pm 
I'm sure that this has been suggested before, and honestly, I'm not even sure it's possible, but could you add a version in which we can type our own message? It'd be great for writing the name of a ship on the hull, among other things that I can't think of right now.
strelok-halfer 17 Sep, 2014 @ 11:37pm 
Please, add Russian Signs

Great work they are much needed just wish they where around when i started my ships so i could of desiged them with it in mind (will from now on) so they would fit better.
Could you add Drop Bay, Barracks, Restrcted Area, and Landing Pad or may just Pad
Not_George_Clooney 16 Sep, 2014 @ 5:15pm 
This are awesome, I enjoy looking at these more than the other sign blocks... Good work man can't wait to see what you can do in the future!

eXor  [author] 15 Sep, 2014 @ 4:26pm 
@colonel will put those words on our todo list thx for idea
@Siliconpot good idea will see how to do.. will be heaps of work :)
@Uthael & @Frogmanfunk123 this will be another mod then because the letters as small as they are in this mod it wont comes good. see here an example for number
JamesFreeman5 15 Sep, 2014 @ 3:45pm 
Wow this is a good idea i like it
frogmanfunk123 15 Sep, 2014 @ 11:19am 
Add numbers, 0-9

cool signs bra.
ハイロポン 15 Sep, 2014 @ 10:53am 
I like the idea but if you could get the text to glow on a single block it would be much more practical.

Have you considered placards with "Engineering", "Administration", etc on them? You could put a small map detail on each placard as if "You Are Here" and it could be a block that changes placard with each build state. This way corridors can be tight and still be detailed.

Just a thought.
Uthael 15 Sep, 2014 @ 8:36am 
How about making them single letters? So we can make abbrevations and our own words. Or if each sign HAS to be on it's own block, how about writing the sign's contents in it's settings?
Siliconpot 15 Sep, 2014 @ 2:44am 
Any chance of getting these in single block size? To fit smaller spacecraft.

@Supercake, @Colonel Porksworth
Quite confident that 'Armoury' is English and 'Armory' is US English. Hence, both of these are correct.
Nefilol Seflll 15 Sep, 2014 @ 2:23am 
Airlock,Danger,Under Construction & Do Not Enter signs,please?

@Supercake 'Armory' isn't not necessarily a typo,some people add a 'U' in various words,some don't,it's more a 'subjective typo' if anything,i guess
