Atlas utility

[jojoweb]

Hi !

I am asking something. What the atlas graphic files are using for ? Is somebody know it ?

I think it can be used for illustrating somethings in the balloons wich notify us that a new building is built, or that a new unit was produced. Do you know what i mean ? And is it the atlas utility ?

yep and it is for "off" screen pic for selected units

however no one managed to mod it correctly

for the closest go to these two links:

however the debate is dead (no one has posted there in a while)

it does have good info


since you can not mod the atlas ...

you will get a "pink" circle instead


however it doesnt matter much for buildings because there is a "once created" pic and it goes away (you can make the "city creating" bar pic fine)

for units it sux because you units highlighted will have the pink circle... for off screen selected units



although you can make unit button pics appear in the "city creating" bar, and the city bar (for units)


I hope this helps

i maybe wrong here but i thought Atlas was strictly a "Map Generator", no way to load yours in there, yet.

I thought he was talking about the atlas dds file with all the vanilla units/buildings buttons...

maybe jojoweb can clear this up ...
