Hello

Have recently returned to EvE - i noted that the overview has changed a bit, and one of the things im struggling with is the color of some of the icons.

When a wreck is abandoned they turn blue (used to be a lighter color blue) but now its dark dark blue and i can barely see it. Is there a way to change this? Can I modify the icon colors.

I tried to google a solution, and asked in the help chat in game.....to no avail.

Thanks for any help,

Regan

there are blue variations now, as custom guard are pale blue (or teal)
and no option whatsoever to modify wreck icons, bracket or overview :
white yours
yellow is not
blue is FFA
this has not changed in .. I guess a while

you can try and play with gamma correction, newly added last big patch in the game option

but there are lots of complaint on some "dark" color in probe scanner windows already, I guess this is another one, and apparently some graphist at CCP must have a really nice screen or have owl eyes because it hasn't been changed even lots of feedback have been made.

I guess you could open a support ticket asking for a lighter blue; that's your only real hope of being heard.

Thanks for the reply :)

It seemed odd to me there is so much you can configure in the overview i would think that the Icons would have some ability to be tweaked.

I find the new wreck ones to be sooo faint to see.

And shuttles are like a little squiggly line.....


that being said i can get used to the icons if i can see them.....the blue is just too dark - would be nice to have the ability to modify.

I will play with the slider - thanks for the reminder.

Hope CCP reads this one :)

Cheers
