Thanks!

I am curious to see how does it look in-game!

The next patch will see the icon used in the unit pedia. (I'll add it in more places the patch thereafter)

I've made a "psi" icon:
In the same raw as strength etc., to the right

P.S. Reuploaded with right alpha channels.

Oh damn it, I didn't notice that the Psi icon was already made... I still prefer my "capitalized" psi so I think I will use it just so it's not wasted .

No problem, Maniac is free to choose the one he prefers, no objections from me.
The more people contribute to this mod the better it will get!

I'm always interested in comparing how your icon looks in-game, but I don't know how to refer to an icon placed in that spot in the gamefont. :-s

Teodosio, would you be interested in placing a copy of the nutrient, mineral and energy icons in the bonus resource row? These would show up in the mouse-over widget help when you move over a plot with those resources.

Good idea! I didn't notice that issue.
Here they are, the updated gamefonts. Please don't forget to modify the references in the XML file. Since as you know I have learned new Gimp tricks lately, I have added a shadow to the Manifold Nexus icon too!

I am planning to do more work on the gamefonts, my next target are the "chemicals": helium, iridum and rubidium. since I want to do model and texture work about them in addition to gamefont I am opening another thread.

Thanks for the gamefont!

Resonance cluster icon attached. Please remember to modify the XML file. I used the progenitor color on the resonance icon present in several SMAC techs. Do you like it?
This includes an improved version of the Helium-3 icon.

Thanks,I'll check it out.
The new icons look awesome in the screenshot!

Happy that you like them! Download the second revision in the previous post, I have moved the resonance cluster to leave space for the other two chemicals in order to have all the three of them together.

See if you like this new monolith icon too, space odissey theme. If you prefer this to the old one I will upload the new gamefont.

Given that this new icon doesn't resemble the SMAC monolith look at all, I'd prefer to keep the current one.

Suggestion: the harp in fac012.pcx might make for a good Fungal Gin gamefont icon (if it's still recognizable at that size of course).
