Ahah, cool idea drathe :D I just made the trick and it's working, edits include:

- untraceable trap icons
- HeroScribe.jar
- Objects.xml
- Board_EU.eps.gz
- Board_US.eps.gz
- objectList-1.5.dtd
- objectList-1.5.xsd

Now I think I'll have to make it into another Icon Pack. About the untraceable trap icons, I think those would need to be:

- Fireburst
- Hurricane
- Ice slide
- Slippery Ice 1x1, 2x1, 2x3, 3x1
- Teleport A, B
- Wandering Monster

Then, we'd have:

- Treasure Chest with untraceable trap
- Door with untraceable trap
- Letters with untraceable trap
- Untraceable Deep Pit Trap
- Untraceable Falling Rock
- Untraceable Long Pit Trap
- Untraceable Pit Trap
- Untraceable Spear Trap
- Untraceable Stalactite
- Untraceable Swinging Axe
- Untraceable Swinging Blade Trap
- Untraceable Giant Stone Boulder

Would you please share your thoughts about that? Thanks, drathe |_P

Seriously!? You were able to make it work having both the Orange trap and Shamrock Shake Green (Happy St. Patrick's Day!) magical trap colours?

I would make it into an icon pack. European style map users won't need it at all.

Yep, I just need your opinion on the needed icons then I can publish the St. Patrick's Icon Pack; have a look at my previous post and tell me if you see all the icons needed.

I believe you have them all covered in your list. Anything else that's unique (furniture trap, etc) can be addressed via quest note.

Wow, I never realized you were such a fan of the light green traps, well that's done now.
All-In-One Icon Pack is ready and updated, please take your time with the install instructions.
By the way, here's the trick for the light green traps, from Objects.xml:

<object name="Hurricane Trap" id="HurricaneTrap" width="1" height="1" kind="trap" zorder="-5.0" untraceabletrap="true">
<icon region="Europe" path="Europe/WizardsOfMorcar/WizardsOfMorcar.HurricaneTrap_EU" />
<icon region="USA" path="USA/NonOriginal/WizardsOfMorcar.HurricaneTrap_US" original="false"/>
</object>

Please remember the icon would need to be transparent in order to get the light green background.

They will save later Photoshopping of the .eps file in order to add in the mint-green. :D

actually I like the light green traps too - just never thought about that being in HS.
Thanks for all the work.
