Talk:Star Shard

MvGulik‎ or any interested person, in game resourses there is only polygons and textures for any gems. Maybe you have an idea how to combine them and adding it for Star Shard and Sugar Diamond. Currently i used other gem cover for page infobox to not broke linked tables. --Kitsuneg (talk) 17:58, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

The in-game gem icons images are made of the gem-texture in combination with 3 alpha-mask type images. The specifics of how those images should be combined is a bit of a mystery to me. I tried it a long time ago. But the results where not that good. I figure the related base-code is in the "gfx/invobjs/gems/gemstone" res file, but deciphering that is not my fortay. --.MvGulik. 21:21, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

On an other subject. All variation of a given gem-type don't need to be separate images. Something like File:Gemstone_Chart.png(per gem-type) could also be used. (Hmm. I should probably test that on some gem-type first) --.MvGulik. 22:29, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
