Talk:Guide to modifying in-game graphics/Player made modifications/UI enhancements
From Guild Wars Wiki
I'm not really sure where to ask this but I'm interested in having a mod made. I find that reading player's names on the PvP field can be quite difficult at times. Having the visibility of names improved would be vastly helpful. If anyone knows of an existing mod or can create a mod like this for me, please contact me on my talk page. —♥Jedi♥Rogue♥ 21:50, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
- Text is generated automatically, and can't be modified with a texture switch. It may be possible to utilize the distance fade to make a minor adjustment, but it's doubtful.--Pyron Sy 00:46, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Links
Stop editting that the link of Cartography Made Easy is dead plz... cuz it still works fine to me, it's always possible that the server is down for an hour or even a day, instead of directly editing that the link is dead, post a comment by discussion plz.. thx 78.23.70.254 15:26, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you. Yes, mediafire has the unfortunate tendency to "lose" account information for a couple of hours. However once their servers realign themselves everything's better again.--Pyron Sy 18:22, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
Has anyone found a way of placing treasure chests on the mini-radar yet? this would make chest runs easier
- Since chests are placed randomly, there's no way to place them on the mini map. All that can be done to ease chest running is to paint the chests themselves a bright neon green or some other easy to spot color.--Pyron Sy 20:01, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
- The guy's talking about treasure chests in nightfall that you can open monthly to give you free gold& other goodies.--68.116.156.71 05:24, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Cartography made easy edits
I know there are real computer geniuses out there somewhere can you fix the mod so there's not so many glitches with map overlaps in water, backgrounds, and sometimes the screen goes white, whenever the map is overlapping my screen or it's white I have to minimize GW and then bring it back up...really annoying, I imagine, it shouldn't be too dificult to fix this if you're a genius on the topic.--Ʀєʟʟɑ 05:27, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
- The problems you're describing are not problems with the mod. It's an inherent issue with Texmod, and you will see similar issues regardless of which mod you run. Granted, the cartography mods are more likely to cause the issue due to the amount of texture edits required to run them, but I've seen complaints of this same problem out of the Dark Glass mod as well. Please keep in mind that Texmod is a beta program, and issues will arise from its use.--Pyron Sy 10:21, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
- All of the download links are broken - file will not download.--81.111.147.247 11:01, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
- Links are working.--Pyron Sy 19:41, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
I'm having trouble loading the Cartography textures. They used to work fine, when I ran Windows XP, but now I have upgraded to Vista, and the textures don't load in-game. The only things I can think of that have changed are: DirectX10, instead of 9, and: I used to used Omega Nvidia drivers, but now I use the current regular Nvidia ones. I have searched forums for days for an answer, and get none, other than disabling the UAC, which I've already done for other reasons. Thanks in advance. The Shaded Blade 23:27, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Fog remover
Could someone create a mod which completely removes fog rather than merely making it transparent? -- Gordon Ecker 21:30, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
- I've found the textures for the fogged maps: 90821...90824 for the Battle Isles, 90825 for pre-Searing, 90827...90841 and 90876 for Tyria, 90843...90849 for Cantha and 90855...90865 for Elona. -- Gordon Ecker 03:14, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
I just wanted to remark to whoever made the Cartography edit-in case you didn't know, the Elona .tpf file is no longer hosted by the site that you had hosted. If someone could fix this, I'd be really thankful.
- Link updated.--Pyron Sy 20:38, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Drunkard Title
Is it possible to create a mod that will show if the character is drunk (enough for the gathering point towards the title). Like a small sign "YOU ARE DRUNKKKKKK.....". I know u can see with post-processing turned on but i also know that none of us is using post-processing when going for the title. --DBorG 09:31, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
- I'm not sure if it would be. You'd have to try to find the texture that messes with your "vision". If they created such a texture, then it probably would be. It might just be an effect, thus not having a texture that Texmod could capture.
- There are no textures associated with drunkard. This is an impossible project with texmod.--Pyron Sy 10:32, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Health bar percentage indicators
All the mods that have this change the entire UI. Any chance we could get one that changes the health bars to show 50%, etc. without changing the rest of the UI?
