The New House Banner Ingame Thread

[Glockus]

Hi,

My house XIII would like our banner in the next update, thanks!

I have noticed slot B13 is free and that is preferable (less clicking to the next page when editing your character... lazy I know ;p) but other than that any of the C13/D13/E13/F13 slots will be fine (inline with the the house name and all hehe).

Please add this banner for The Rebel Guard. You may choose any slot

Thanks. (Banner courtesy of Tarimoth)

Cheesy, doesn't look like a banner.

Hey I gave them the choice between 3 banners.

The point, Spar, is that it should fit on shields (look gritty) rather than being on an actual flag-banner. Since there are no banners ingame anyhow.

Agree that the 8th's banner looks gorgeous :o

How embarrassing, especially since I know you're right, I've even taken education on the roman numerals. Good heavens, I blame it on.. the beer! Mustve been the beer..

Thanks guys! It was a collaborative effort between a couple of us so I have passed on your praise to my co-designer.

I have been testing it in-game courtesy of the new banner patch and have discovered that the main emblem needs to be shrunk to fit properly on the shield and tag. Should the updated banner be posted in here in order to be included in the next patch?

This would be the place. Although, I recommend testing it before submitting it.

Thanks.

How do I go about compiling it into a .dds file for testing?

Easiest way is to use gimp and add the gimp-dds plugin. Then you can open the file. When you save it, it doesn't matter for compression (but Warband uses the first option BC/DXT1 or something like that) and click the generate mipmaps button. The image also has to be a single layer to work correctly, otherwise it thinks it's 3D.

You can also check it in my SVG design file if you want as well. https://www.dropbox.com/s/mjnyhciowshwwn...42.svg.zip  It's not 100% perfect, but it's pretty close. I have all of the shield shapes in there.
