[REL] Improved Status Indicators mod

Improved Status Indicators mod v1.2 **** Updated (05/18/07) ****
------------------------------------------------------------------



**Last update (05/18/07): Added a new ISI mod version for Ducimus's Flavored to Taste v2.1 -> v2.5 mod and Trigger Maru v1.x mod.


** ISI mod v1.2: Actually, the graphic files are identical as in v1. Readme updated and useless files (.tga) removed.


5 versions of the ISI mod compatible with:

- SH4 v1.2
- SH4 1.2-Beery's RFB 1.2x (also compatible with jimimadrid's green lamp mod)
- SH4 1.2-jimimadrid's shiny hud 1.2
- SH4 1.2-jimimadrid's red hud 1.2
- SH4 1.2-Ducimus's Flavored to Taste 2.x or Trigger Maru 1.x



** B_version: Same light green color as the green lamp mod buttons:

Same green as the green lamp mod (right)

I did this one on request.
However, the indicators look a bit flat; I had to remove the shadow and glow effects of the first version to match up with the tint.
The indicators are small -> not enough space for a suitable gradient effect without darkening or fading excessively the main color.

Equally, the very small CO2 indicator may appear slightly darker although the green color used is identical.





------------------------

v1:

I found that SH4 levels indicators were not easily readable, so I've added some color.


At a glance, there isn't much difference between these two indicators in stock SH4:

Fuel level on (left) ; Compressed air level on (right)

Here, the battery level is displayed with the Improved Status Indicator Mod:

Also, the 4 buttons will turn yellow if you hover the mouse over them.

Actually this is a very simple mod! I hope you'll find it useful.


This mod is compatible with SH4 v1.10.

As a lot of you are already using different HUD mods, I have made my mod compatible with the following:
- Beery's Real Fleet Boat mod vxx -> v1.11
- jimimadrid shinyborder or red HUD


All versions JSGME-friendly.
