Fancy Faction Icons?

I accidentally clicked the options link and before I clicked off the page I noticed that option. Then when I went back to my registry all the logos had changed.

How long has that been there? I know its strictly a visual thing and doesn't really have an impact on the game, but I have never seen anyone mention this option.

It's not part of my options. Maybe it's something that only the Beasts have. :???:

Mine was for some reason switched on, so I switched it off to see what the difference was, there wasnt any, so i switched it back on, and suddenly I got some shinny new faction symbols too!

Like I said, it may just be something the beasts have, or it could be something that Firefox shows and IE doesn't. If a bot or con could report on this...

I asked about those on MSN once. Nice to see that even my own faction rarely pays attention to me. :P

MSN causes way to many problems for my computer. I can be running it by itself and my computer is sluggish. Its just not worth it. More people I talk to use AIM anyway. :P

If you're having trouble with MSN (and trust me, it's a worthless nightmare on dial-up), try logging into it through this site: http://www.meebo.com/ It works a little more reliably for me there, plus you have the bonus of consolidating it, AIM, yahoo, and most other IM services into one Firefox tab.

And I do not see this fancy icon option. :shock: What did the icons look like after they changed?

What he forgot to tell you is that it's for HMW2. Which we're already playing without you.

It's the only way we can get a head of GS.

I don't think so, I only see them because of a fix for the color palletes and health bars Glyph posted. It involved a script he wrote and an add on for FireFox called GreaseMonkey

They sure do look pretty.
Unfortunately, any outside modification to the game is against site rules and so the link to it was removed.

If anyone has any further questions or queries regarding this firefox extension, please feel free to send them to me by PM.
