a new tile set in Mods Stardock Forums

i have had some time to play with Dark Rain (excellent)suite of tools and here is the result http://www.freewebs.com/guildshand/tiles.htm one replacement set of tiles for the star background ingame. give it a try. its just the first version, we'll have to see what comes next. Instructions: download the file, backup the original Space01 in the gfx folder, unzip the downloaded file to the gfx folder and over write the existing one, start your game. [Message Edited]

[quote]When you click on Save after creating the sprite, doesn't it bring up the save as menu?[/quote] this it does without issue, the "save as" menu appears and the file is created. it is when the file is appended(ie a new sequence added during the same session and the "save" option under file menu is used) it does not seem to add the new content to the file.

So to save i would go though these steps beforehand: 1)create new spirit, set palette, save the spirit 2)create a sequence, import a frame 3)file>Save upon reopening the spirit i have found the sequence was not saved. If i use "Save as" instead, and overwrite the existing file.The spirit will contain the sequence. If you say it works on your end, i dont doubt it. my computer is in need of a good format anyway.

fantastic job with this suite, i have had just a little time to try out the spirit editor. i really like the functions, layout, and the over all utility of the program. it will make life far easier for those who wish to create graphics for the game. there are two things i have notice though (do tell me if i have missed something) 1)the menu special,its options are only available after a newly created spirit is saved and re-opened 2)the Save function does not seem to work; Save A

Some info on the pirate faction in Mods Stardock Forums

i'm wanting to mod the pirates, but it is not clear what ship model they use.so two questions come to mind: 1)does anyone know which ship model they use 6-10 or somthing else 2)can they be modded i.e. are they hard coded thanks ~SDC~

gave it a quick try and it such a massive leap beyond the previous ship rotate tool. excellent work :) ~SDC~

Reply to ship encoding has me stumped in Mods Stardock Forums

your example: terran model i listed as 0ColonyShip and minor model as 35ColonyShip. i also tried 0Ship21 and 35Ship21. your ship file need the following prefixs and will look like this:0ColonyShip,350ColonyShip for your icon file it is the same and they are CaSe sensetive:0ColonyShip_Icon.tga,0ColonyShip_Icon24Trans.tga, 350ColonyShip_Icon.tga,350ColonyShip_Icon24Trans.tga that one stumped me too :) ~SDC~

thanx for the comments and interest :) as of this evening i have finished something far more important then a few ships. i have now a working photoshop action script that will take 32 tga images and manipulate them to one flimstrip tga.so the tedious rotating mentioned by Thrull need not affect my carpal tunnel anylonger. :) now the entire process takes 1 minute. Dark Rain making a improved ship rotating tool is a greast idea. the one thing i would like to suggest is, if po
