So, it's not a mater of shape, but of graphics quality. What about letting a new cursor look like the old one, but just less pixelly? Wanted to save the world, then I got widetracked Top Quote

Isn't the current cursor good as it is? The reasons why I make the new graphics are: - Allow the graphics to be rendered in higher resolutions (BLEND files instead of raster graphics, e.g. for HiDPI displays, zoom levels, etc.) - Bring a consistent style into the graphics WorldSavior wrote: What about letting a new cursor look like the old one, but just less pixelly? I try to replicate the original look as much as possible, while being open for improvements (e.g. the used iconography). I have been busy working on the cursor graphics. Mainly on the geometry and rigging but also added a currently crappy alpha blend to avoid the chopped-off look. I also tweaked my blend version of the roadbuilding field selector to match better with the original version of kaputtnik: kaputtnik's version, old blend version, new blend version Top Quote

IMHO it would be the best solution if the new graphics look not different from the old ones... Wanted to save the world, then I got widetracked Top Quote

I also tweaked my blend version of the roadbuilding field selector to match better with the original version of kaputtnik: kaputtnik's version, old blend version, new blend version I like your old version Gun should make a decision and then i will update the widelands-media branch with the resulting blend file.

Good progress on the cursor hand, the shading is a good idea. Try to rotate it a bit so that it is pointing backwards at the screen somewhat, or bend the index finger a bit more?

My ideas: Curl in the thumb as in the original cursor Give it a similar color to fsel, maybe add an outline too Make the finger thicker Softer shadows Busy indexing nil values Top Quote
