Bases 20

Bases are the most difficult aspect of a SMACX faction graphic to create, so it is hoped that these graphic goodie files will give beginners at faction modding a leg up. See also the Portraits, Diplomacy Landscapes and Logos series, also in this Downloads section, and for info on art techniques and/or to communicate with BU and ask any questions, see the Graphics thread: http://alphacentauri2.info/index.php?topic=1237.0 These are a lot of work to put together, so please be sure to credit me in the empty space of the .pcx. Posting to let me know you found it useful would be okay, too.

Hello, Im looking for info to help me understand the SPAC file system and what tools i can use to modify the game assets.

I want to be able to

Looks like the above link has issues!

Thanks BU, i have had a quick look through Your Startrek Mod to see how thats done, doesnt look too complicated. Is there any way to replace the terrain sprites on the actual globe?

 

[Buster's Uncle]

Terrain sprites? Is that units, or terrain textures, or what?

Hello BU,
Just been reading your website about editing image, heaps of great info there.


Is it possible to edit the Globes Terrain Textures, as in, change colours and/or swap them out with new sprite sheet using a different color pallet?
