Update please!
Vellis 17 Feb, 2017 @ 4:53am 
update :D

Is this mod still relevent and needed? I may get creative and update it - but if it's no longer needed I will continue to let it die sloooooooowly! :steamhappy:

I think I might have an idea if you want to rework the recreation icon. Maybe a TV or video game controller? I dunno.
Vellis 9 Jul, 2016 @ 1:58pm 
k so.. update? O.o :steamhappy:
Barckley 5 Feb, 2016 @ 3:09am

Thank you!

That joke was stillborn.
azairvine  [author] 20 Dec, 2015 @ 10:01pm 
Oh and the recreation icon WILL be reworked - that joke is dead long ago!
azairvine  [author] 20 Dec, 2015 @ 10:00pm 
If you guys want me to update this mod then I will be happy to do so. Please let me know!

Looks good except the recreation icon, so I'll pass.
Catra 23 Oct, 2015 @ 3:46pm 
i hope so
[yep]Thmyris 20 Oct, 2015 @ 9:14am

Vickers 27 Jun, 2015 @ 7:03pm 
trying this out now, thanks

miley cyrous and recreation
Toddy 17 Jun, 2015 @ 8:23pm 
This is execelent. The original really were hard to distinguish.
$100 Bill 16 Jun, 2015 @ 6:30pm 
uh...wouldn't recreation be a TV?

Anyway, does this work on the new update?
Warden Potato Old 16 Jun, 2015 @ 7:26am 
@Kuzkula they wanna miley cyrus
Kuzkula 30 Mar, 2015 @ 6:26am 
Guess I'll throw in my two cents and say the wrecking ball is a stupid idea. Punny, but dumb for something seeking to give clarity to the players.

The punchline, "I didn't know all my inmates were whores"
With Alpha 31, all of these are white squares now. Anyone else have that going on?
azairvine  [author] 28 Mar, 2015 @ 7:20am 
Welll I must admit that the evidence is starting to stack up against Miley. The console controller seems to be the popular vote. I'll have to work through the pros n cons - afterall it was my girlfriend who suggested the wrecking ball - and I've gotta live with her!! :p
Syndicake ☠ 28 Mar, 2015 @ 5:42am 
Thats a little quaint, most people would associate recreation with a console controller or a baseball bat or something. Sports or games. Since the point of this mod is to make the needs 'clearer' you should change that one.
azairvine  [author] 28 Mar, 2015 @ 5:36am 
Thanks Joe. Looks like sentiment on Miley is turning! I like to think of it this way....

Wreck-ing ball
Rec-reation

Name association to remember what it relates to. Like, "lefty loosie, righty tighty" - if ANYONE understands what I'm talking about.... :D
November 28 Mar, 2015 @ 2:16am 
Other than the wrecking ball, this is a great mod that lives up to its purpose of making needs icons clearer.
azairvine  [author] 27 Mar, 2015 @ 10:19pm 
I'm "taking the piss" with Miley Cyrus......might need to google the Aussie slang translation of that ;-)
NeonHaggis 27 Mar, 2015 @ 6:28pm 
Great mod, though I think you are overstating the appeal of miley cyrus.
kezza596 27 Mar, 2015 @ 12:21pm 
Thank you so much! I was getting so frustrated that the other one wouldn't be updated.
Mazarkis 26 Mar, 2015 @ 7:53am 
I like it! :D If you're looking for an idea for Privacy, maybe going with the theme of a bubble around a prisoner - the personal space boundary :) Or even a pair of eyes with the circle-slash, kinda the "don't look at me!" vibe. And the Miley Cyrus thing made me LOL.

The clothing one kinda confused me at first - it made sense once I understood what it was though.
Fishy Business 26 Mar, 2015 @ 6:16am 
Exept the Miley Cyrus i think you did a great job :) :B1:
Fishy Business 26 Mar, 2015 @ 6:14am 
@Major Chafe Its just that i don't understand the Miley Cyrus... As "Solfosc" Says i think it would be better with that controller or a pool table? :bears:
azairvine  [author] 25 Mar, 2015 @ 5:18pm 
Because the gimmick is what everyone loves :)
Solfosc 25 Mar, 2015 @ 11:43am 
For the Recreation icon why not a controller instead of that Miley Cyrus gimmick?
Azazel 24 Mar, 2015 @ 1:56pm 
dude this isso useful thanks formaking this :Access:
azairvine  [author] 24 Mar, 2015 @ 6:18am 
Thank you for your suggestion Kent - I have taken your suggestion on board regarding the shield!

The wrecking ball stays though - that's the most popular icon in the set! =)
very_average_guy 24 Mar, 2015 @ 2:28am 
Recreation and Safety. Safety comes up when the prisoner undergoes physical harm. It is rare and most often shows up on like prisoners that should be in protective custody like Ex Cops or cover blown informants.
azairvine  [author] 23 Mar, 2015 @ 11:59pm 
Leisure? Security?

Did you mean Recreation & Privacy?
very_average_guy 23 Mar, 2015 @ 10:43pm 
Here is a suggestion for some better icons:

For Leisure: Why not just show a TV?
For Security: Why not show a Shield?
Karppa 23 Mar, 2015 @ 2:28am 
A cool one but the difference in appearance for the people and thoughts kind of got to me.
The Spiffy Creeper 22 Mar, 2015 @ 5:34pm 
It is funny
azairvine  [author] 22 Mar, 2015 @ 5:30pm 
Cuz it's funny Krol Jared. I guess it's a "love or hate" kind of thing. There aren't too many legitimate icons that can represent leisure time in a prison - just take a look at the original icon for instance.

Ircghost - Privacy was a tough one - I understand what you're saying. Again, that's another difficult icon to represent a need through exclusion (somehow depicting the prisoner wants to exclude everyone around him from his presence).

Sir_Delarus - Interesting thought, but at this stage I can't see it being possible as there is very limited functionality to be able to call specific sprites for icons. I'll keep it in mind though if it ever becomes a possibility. If there are more you like than you don't like, give it a sub ;)
The Spiffy Creeper 22 Mar, 2015 @ 5:24pm 
why is the icon for recreation Miley Cyrus?
Ircghost 22 Mar, 2015 @ 2:59pm 
Great job, truly makes a difference! Kind of hope the makers adopt this. I like the subtilty you used with creating these :).

The only ones I don't really like are:
- Recreation
- Privacy

Rest is great!

I would subscribe, but I would like to see options added in that allow certain images to be turned on or off. Nonetheless, looks great so far
Eddbao 21 Mar, 2015 @ 10:36pm 
Take it easy, its his first mod and don't go too harsh on him.
Everyone has to start somewhere
