Hey there!
A while ago, before version .13.xx, all the icons that become visible after pressing alt used to have white squares for a background on my system (AMD Radeon), as can be seen on the example screenshots below (not mine):

However, the icons on my brother's system (nVidia) have always shown the 'correct' background (faded black, no white squares).
Recently, the game on my system got 'fixed', it now shows the correct, faded black backgrounds on the icons, just like it always did on my brother's system.
But although I think the faded black backgrounds really look prettier, I had a much easier time quickly identifying icons on the old, bugged, white backgrounds.
My question might be rather strange, but is there any way (config file or client-side mod or something) to get the old, bugged, white, squared icon backgrounds back?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: corrected a typo in the title.
Icons with white backgrounds
Re: Icons with white backgrounds
No. It used to be an option in 0.12 and earlier, but was patched out in 0.13.

Re: Icons with white backgrounds
You can just replace data/core/graphics/entity-info-dark-background-filtered.png with a white square. Don't forget to put the original image back whenever you update.
Not sure if this can also be done more cleanly with a mod, can't find that file referenced anywhere in data/ so maybe it's just hardcoded in the executable.

Thanks! I'll try that out later today.prg wrote:You can just replace data/core/graphics/entity-info-dark-background-filtered.png with a white square. Don't forget to put the original image back whenever you update.

Re: Icons with white backgrounds
That worked great!
I didn't even realize the graphics were so easily moddable, very handy.
