The transparent color filling is too bright

[Christoph Bier]

The transparent color filling is too bright, which makes it hard to distinguish from the empty filled forms. Making it a bit darker or filling it with small strokes would help much.

Sorry, don't understand what you mean. Please rephrase or send a screenshot. Thanks

I can confirm this: There are the kinds of filling out the symbols: the solid colour, white background and the colour a bit transparent. The last case is not very visible, it should be some kind of granular, like in the original game, maybe use textures. I'll upload a pic.
Thanks. :)

Thanks for your clarification; now I understand what you mean. Personally I can distinguish very well between the empty and half filling. I will ask some other people about their optinion before I change it (or not).

Work-around:
As you probably know, all cards are simple png files stored in the cards folder. If you don't like the cards you can design your own ones. I intentionally didn't use the original SET design to prevent any legal issues.

[Ralf Hersel (ralf.hersel)]

Ok, I cross-checked it with other users. They have no problems with the half-filling. Anyway, I will create a blueprint to change the card file format from png to svg. That makes it easier to create new card designs. And another blueprint to choose between different card designs. Then everybody can create own designs and choose between them.

Fixed in version 0.14 on Oct. 19, 2009.
Put some noise to the half-filled cards. That makes them easier to distinguish from the non-filled cards.
The old card set (cards_1.zip) is still included in the zip archive.

Thanks for this, now it's clear.

But while playing I found one card that has still the old layout: 1223.png
Would be nice if you fix this card also.

Please read the latest announcement and look at the downloads.
The wrong card is available as separate download and it is now also included in the 0.14 download.

[goto (gotolaunchpad)]

I just downloaded 0.14 again and the wrong card is still there. since the fixed card is available opional there is no problem anymore. thanks.

[Ralf Hersel (ralf.hersel)]

Hmm, I don't know how this could happen. I will replace the wrong card in 0.14 again.

[Ralf Hersel (ralf.hersel)]

Fixed. The correct card (1223) is now in release 0.14.
