Imra, do you mind making a lion with army skin, or teaching me how to do this i would love to play around with it.

It's colourful ^.^


Behold, my coloured pax slaves!
Btw the Pax glow map has been resized due to the size limits

If you can post just different color mods for the paxes (IE red, darker blue, purple etc.) for serenity and such that look good maybe they'll be put in. Paxes sorely need more color variety

Why didn't I do that!? I'll do that later tonight!

For some reason when I try to change the Christmasicus glow, it stays blue and has the paximinus glow. Anyone know why?

You probably need to edit the .xml code, idk how to do that though. Also which file do you change, I can't even figure out which one is the pax glow. XP

Actually.. it is linked to the paximinus glow.. and the xml doesn't even show how D:

Oh by the way, the paximinus glow is PaxianGlowCyan and the Christmasicus glow is PaxianGlowGreen (supposed to be anyway)

We can't manipulate glow maps dynamically. In Client 1 we used the same image for all the Paxian ships (scaled, of course) and applied a glowcolour on it (which we set in the hull balance sheet to be to exported to the XML). But the glowcolour tag doesn't work because of new code in the client. All the Pax ships still have the same ship visage index (the number we used after SpaceShip*.png in C1, and the number listed in ships.xml). We can't even really hack it in like we could in C1, unless the glow was just static (no fading, Pax Xmas would need thinking about). Bleh, maybe I can bug one of the programmers to fix it.

Cool, thanks for the info.

Well.. did this patch change any linkage between the paximinus, christmasicus, serenity, and the selenilogica?

Found out how to make transparent ship textures.
But the texture has to be a png file

How do i add the tractor rings?

They're most likely generated by the code. IIRC, a tractor is a SOB (space object) type just like a plasma (projectile) or laser. So it'd be coded into the tractor sob, not something that is particularly easy to get at, or use. I would have had a better idea in C1. But in C2, no idea.
