Game Lobby Disconnect/Disband/Start button color change
*updated on 18 Sep 2009 22:55 GMT-5*
***This mod is not like the majority of the other mods. It has many textures (54 total) that have to be put into the textures.s2z file. Please read the installation instructions carefully.
**Haha this was my 700th post!
I created this mod because I see people often hitting the 'Disband' button in game lobbies instead of 'Start', causing mass anger and frustration to the people who were waiting for a long time for a game to fill up, only to get denied to play.

Examples of each of the button's states
Note: This mod will NOT work with any other mods which modify game_lobby.package or ui_items.package (especially picklefish's stats mod and Fatal510's PSR filter mod). You can combine this one with any other mod and it should work. You can follow the guide in my signature to help you combine mods.

Installation
1) Download this file (http://www.mediafire.com/?mnuemtyymkm) and open it with your favorite archiving program (I recommend 7-zip)
2) Place the resources047.s2z file contained inside into the game/ folder.
The default locations for these are:
Linux: /home/<username>/HoN/game/
Windows 7: C:\Program Files\Heroes of Newerth\game\
Windows Vista: C:\Program Files\Heroes of Newerth\game\
Windows XP: C:\Program Files\Heroes of Newerth\game\
Mac:
1. Press Finder
2. Press Applications
3. Right click 'Heroes of Newerth', and press Show containing files
4. Open Game folder
5. Move file here
3) Extract the buttons folder from the downloaded .zip.
4) Open the textures.s2z file located in the same place you put the resources047.s2z file with your favorite archiver (once again I strongly recommend 7-zip)
5) Navigate to 00000000\ui\info\ inside of the textures.s2z file, and put all the button files from the button folder (not the folder itself) in there (drag and drop works with 7-zip, and probably winrar too).
**Note that the files I used DO NOT overwrite, so there is no need to backup any files. You will only need to drop these button files once if you use this mod because I will probably not change the button files themselves in updates to this mod.
