Cape Clasp

Changes the upper portion of capes from blue to black, leaving the golden trim untouched. It will not effect your guild cape itself, only the top portion. This mod will effect ALL capes, not just your own. I will possibly be making additional colors as well, and will add them here. The only error I can see in this mod is the shine effect is still there, and I don't think it can be removed without messing up the shine effect on cape emblems.

Enhanced Loading Screens

I got tired of seeing the same load screens for three years, so I changed all the regional load screens. All the new loadscreens are in-game screenshots that I photoshopped to make them look like actual paintings/drawings. The only one I didn't change is the Battle Isles load screen, because it's lord-of-the-rings-ey and thus automatically awesome. These 21 high res images make the download 24.8 mb.

Photo Booth

Photo Booth creates a blank grey space in the Isle of the Nameless explorable zone to create an even and glare-free background for screenshots and video. The area has the ability to use skills and is in range of enemy dummies to attack as well as friendly NPCs to buff.

Note:

• This mod isn't recommended for normal play as it turns a decent amount of the Battle Isles environments into solid white & grey.
• I found the images to be much more clear if you turn Post Processing Effects off for the screenshots.

Creator: Farlo - Page for this mod

Download: Download from MediaFire

Sample: Location of the Grey area. A raw screenshot may look like this, and can be made into a usable image through editing.

Interactive Map Helper

Mainly created in order to get screenshots for the Interactive Maps project, this mod will remove cloud cover and the Luxon/Kurzick border. As the project requires it, I'll update it to remove almost all the Mission Map markers and "fog" for dungeons and underground zones.

Nighttime Random Arenas
