Inventory Background Colors

I like how the fill looks. The gradient border is okay but I much prefer the full background fill.
Yeah another problem is everyone has their own preferences, only way would work is GGG makes a whole different lot of them and put them up on the site and let everyone vote.

Or just pick the one that has been used in several games before to good effect and not bother with holding a poll.
Yep, I'm totally necro'ing this thread because a) I think it's a very good suggestion, and one that I was about to make but instead was a good little mod and checked for existing threads and b) it has some still active community members in it.

Some sort of rarity differentiation by way of the background would be perfect.
Account sharing/boosting is a bannable offence. No ifs, ands, or buts. No exceptions. Not even for billionaires.

Post this sentiment publicly and see how long it lasts here.
Nope, it would not. It looks very bad to the eye, and definitly "eye-candy" look won't work out well in here, cause its eye-soring and just bad.

Seems like I remember one of the devs saying this was a possibility in answer to a similar thread.

I'd like to have the item quality indication too. +1

Read the whole thread, Brec. It's possible to do this without it being candy at all. They already have red and blue in play as backgrounds -- I don't see how the incredibly functional concept of different hues to denote at-glance rarity would be 'candy'. Indeed, given the usefulness of it, it could be the very OPPOSITE of eye-candy.

I actually said 'Oh, Brec' out loud when I read your response. You really are an exasperating fellow sometimes. :)

I can say with quite a bit of certainty that item quality differentation wihout having to actually read the popup is in the works.

Something along these lines:
or

Clockwise from Top-left: Unique, Empty/Normal slot, Rare, Magic. Now, I'm colorblind so the colors would have to be fixed better but you get the idea. They don't have to be super saturated, just enough to discern rarity at a glance. Then on mouseover, the existing red and green colors would be utilized to discern equipability.

If the background color isn't satisfactory, then perhaps a small colored indicator in the top left corner similar to the small socket indicators on dropped loot.

Personally, I'd prefer the background color.


Totally support this idea! If the "Equipable" and "Non-equipable" background color on an item can't be changed then put a little symbol on a corner of the item. Or even a Red Cross with 20% opacity, or something similar...

Awesome idea.
I support this too.

I'm looking now on my inventory and what? My amulet is only magic on 46lvl ! ;).
Other color of box for items is very good.
