Post Starters Orders 5+6 Mouse Icons
Hi all, I decided to create a few mouse icons. The hand/finger icon is practical and does the job, but I just felt like a change.

The original icon is called MOUSE and is a .png extension, therefore to use an icon that I have created, you will need to change the name of the icon that you wish to use to MOUSE (it should already be the correct extension).

Please make sure you copy the original MOUSE (hand/finger) before replacing it in case you want to change back to it.

All of the icons 'point of click' are in the top left corner of the picture, just like the original. On some it may take a little getting use to but you can use trail and error before you find the one you like best.

Please be aware that some of these may not go well with certain colour schemes due to colour clashes etc.

Download link : https://www.sendspace.com/file/1j311s (re-uploaded 06/07/2014, old link died)

To download :
When you select an icon to download you will be forwarded to another page, select :
"click here to start your download from sendspace"
Then save file

----------------------------------------------------------------
Instructions

If you have problems downloading them just let me know, I can email them to you.

1. For SO5 goto Starters Orders 5 > gfx folder
For SO6 goto Starters Orders 6 > gfx folder

2. For SO5 Copy the file called MOUSE and paste it so you have MOUSE - Copy
For SO6 Copy the file called mouse1 and paste it so you have mouse1- Copy

3. For SO5 Choose one of my icons and rename it MOUSE and place it in the Starters Orders 5 > gfx folder
For SO6 Choose one of my icons and rename it mouse1 and place it in the Starters Orders 6 > gfx folder

4. Select Move and Replace

5. Start the game (please be aware if you are already running the game you HAVE to restart for change to take effect)

Little screenshot of the one I am using at the moment, which is a fire horse.

Hope you like them and if you can think of any other icons you may want then let me know.

Post Re: SO5 Mouse Icons
I created some more icons during lunch and have added them to the original post (Up Top):

**MOUSE34 and MOUSE35 removed, transparency was not of sufficient quality.
**MOUSE7 and MOUSE32 are white horses, no blue hew around them from the screenshot whilst in use in game.

I have tried to have a variety of colours, so to try and accomodate different types of backgrounds.

One or two icons *may* be a little bigger than normal, or may have the point of click just a little off (I **haven't** tested them all)

If you do experience any issues let me know, and I will see what I can do.

Got mine GG - thanks. I'm guessing that when the game gets patched you will need to reinstall the icon?

Nice, hope it's ok for you.

To be honest Graham I have no idea, I guess we will find that out when Mark does a patch next :)
