This mod is wonderful. I'd been looking for a mod that does away with the red flash on enemy health bars before an attack, since it makes defence far too easy, and this mod delivers. It may seem like a trivial thing to laud given the sheer scope of this mod, but some times it's the little things that make something truly great. That said, I wish they hadn't made the changes they did to the potion slots system, but it is what it is. Great mod all around.

I don't hate your icons - they look very polished and profesional but the idea to add tens of completely new graphics to the game is ... arghh...
Damn - the vanilla gives you graphics of all monsters, all are on the same design level, you don't have to search the internet to find good icons. + Look at, for example, ghoul icon - is it similar to the existing model in the game?
HUD should be consistent in design and adding new graphics from the internet... yes, they look good, but make the mess and after all the whole HUD looks like a soup of random elements, there is no aesthetic.
-IMO-

feedback is always nice, i like that you picked out the ghoul as its the old icon not a new one that is already in the base game files, no searching on the internet for that. plus if you look in the game files you'll find most of images used here are in the game as they are gwent cards. as always the mod is release *as is* and people are free to change what they want for personal useage, as replacing the images is not hard at all.

Yeah, you are right I forgot you had even shared screenshots with icons from files. Yeah, of course I will be able to change them in the future but more comfortable way is to convince you to make it for me xd
BTW On second page I wrote a few ideas for development.
P.S. Can we assume for forever that my suggestions are always my opinion and never want to force anyone to do something against his will? (Trying to force anyone via Internet buhahaha)
It is exhausting to write always that it is IMO and respect you etc. bla bla bla

dont worry no one is gonna force me do change anything, only if the rest of the team want them in the god aweful beastiary images i can do but not something i'll look forward to lol
on a side note i will be taking a small "hiatus" from W3 modding. so my activity and involvement may be low in the that time.
as for your ideas i can not comment on them as thats not really the parts i did.
i can say that we all look over about 80% stuff said and we head to the round table and take them to a vote
:grrr:

no (in a friendly & polite tone
), the preparation screen wont be added.I just noticed that in the polish translation there are no big "ć", "ś", "ą", "ń", etc. Are you planing to do something about it?

i think i have a couple of ideas for this feature if you're interested in listening but i'll say it either ways
First :-
Maybe you'd make the monster appear depends on the territory you're wandering at the moment. And the monster remains unknown to you until you check the notice board. You can put a monster from one of the contracts on the notice or a strong monster or pack of monsters/beasts that regularly roam this specific '' territory ''. Drowners/Foglets in the swamp, wolves in the woods near Blackbough, Noonwraith in the fields of Novigrad, Nekkers east of velen etc...
Second :-
You could add a more like gameplay feature than a UI one. And make that monster that is buffed at the moment encounter Geralt more often and randomly, but still depends on the region you're in like there can't be an Alghoul crawling at you in novigrad outskirts, it'll make no sense. I believe this how it should work from the start. A buffed monster gets a boost in courage to leave its lair and attack the roads. and villages ( maybe just the roads here
) it'll add a meaning for the feature and make it less unnoticeable.i hope you guys consider thinking about this in your next update i'd really love to see one of those features in the game

okay i'll break this down in to two parts
First:-
in the next update the monster buff WILL show monsters by REGIONS so for example ice trolls show in ONLY in Skellige
the "territory" thing i dont think will happen either. cause if you had read a few pages back i DID say i got REGIONAL to work but not ZONES.
zones would only be added if it works
Second:-
the just sounds like "Random Encounters" by Erx and as far as i am aware this will not be added.
