Acherus Runes

13 - New Rune Animation: like RunePack

Note: I already filed a ticket for this on the old VoidRune project which appears to be deleted now.

What I’m missing for Acherus to be useful for me is a special rune animation that was discussed in the fairly large EJ thread about DK mods.

The six runes are displayed in a 2x3 square with each type of rune filling one row. When a rune is used, it will instantly change it’s opacity and jump to the left or right of its original position. As the cooldown expires the rune wanders back to the square until it is in place again.

RunePack first implemented this type of behaviour which I find exceptionally intuitive after an initial phase of getting used to it.

I’ve tried to recreate the effect in photoshop, hth. see attachment.

    Thanks for pointing this out. I didn’t realize this behavior was already implemented, the mod feels so perfect its truly stunning. No comparison to the version I last used. Perfect.

    This can already be achieved. Set the layout to Six Pack. Disable the bars and text. Enable icon linear animation and gradual fade in under Icons. Download the latest alpha for gradual fade in on icons.
