But it may be possible to come up with a custom-paletted version that looks better in software mode than the current one does. (Given how limited the range of pinks in Doom is, I'd really prefer to go with a custom-paletted version if at all possible.) Of course, there's always PALVERS for stuff like this, so worst-case scenario, maybe both can go in! EDIT: And I'm kind of leaning towards that since getting a custom-paletted version that palettizes as well as this one looks is a steep challenge. @Infirnex: Ok, I get what you mean now. Yeah, I did that deliberately, but I can easily tone down the contrast and see if it's more agreeable that way. I'll have a new version up shortly. EDIT: How's this? I prefer the old one personally, though I think this one looks OK enough without looking too much like either the white or black versions.

Regarding the silver tech strip: If you are able to make the inner "bulb" a uniform color, that would match the rest of the tech stripes. The overall color will likely need to be slightly darker than the frame so it doesn't look like a metal trim.

(Plus, it also fits the theme of the "SHAWN" and "SILVER" series of textures.) If you think the gradient is a deal-breaker, I can try taking another shot at it; I'm sure it can be done. EDIT: How's this for a non-gradient approach? I went a bit lighter than the frame, but not as aggressively as the white version. I also inverted the dark and light portions so it's subconsciously different than the others.

I tried them in game (software renderer), and this one really looked like gray. The lighter version, to me, looked like it can be considered as white if you haven't seen the actual white markers beforehand.

I understand why a solid version is desirable for consistency, but I do like the gradient version a lot, and I think there's a good case for its existence. I'd like to include both if possible--not for PALVERS or anything like that, but just an alternate for preference's sake.
