[0.8.5] iNoccents Contour Icon Mod (with Rank Icons)

On the mod:

• this mod uses the original WoT tank contours
• contours for heavy, medium and light tanks have been recoloured for better discriminability
• all contours have increased saturation and contrast and are less opaque than the originals to vastly improve visibility on any background
• this version comes with added rank icons beside the tank contour, which display the tanks tier by shape and nationality by color (for a version without the rank icons click >here<)
• the shapes for tier 1 through 9 are the same for all nations, but every nation has it's unique tier 10 icon

My goal:

• My goal are clean and easy to use icons, that let me instantly recognize the tank they belong to, without being bombarded with (in my oppinion useless) additional info like armor values, max. speed, damage, etc...
• It will also allow the more experienced player to easily assess the strengths and weaknesses of his/her own and the enemy team (i.e. is a team more focused on heavy, medium or light tanks or wether there are many quick french tanks or slow germans, so he/she can form a battleplan accordingly)

And for those, who are interested, a little background on the developement of this mod:

• Inspired by Adiya's Contour Icon Mod I created the first version of my mod in June '11 for my own use, but since my friends were so pleased with it I decided to put it on the offical forums in July '11, so others could use it as well. I made quite a few changes until I was finaly satisfied and released version 1.0 in December '11. In June '12 I added a second version of my mod on request without the rank icons for players who'd rather use the ingame tier display option or didn't want any tier indicator at all. Since then I have mainly added new tank contours with every new patch and adjusted the colors and saturation slightly. If you have any questions or suggestions concerning my mod, feel free to leave your comment or just PM me. If you want to use my mod for your own work, I'd be happy to supply my templates.

Happy tanking!
