Trying to build a new Civ... and stuck

[val13]

Kael has an excellent video tutorial (the only way I even got this far)... but now I'm stuck.

I got my leader Mega Tron and new civ Cybertron in. I got my Unique Unit (Decepticon - Assault Mech) and Unique Building (Astroshield - Advanced Shielding).

What I don't have are the pics for:

When you go to the Civilpedia, I get no little pics for the flag (which I do get in the player screen), and other pics in other places around the civilpedia.

What am I missing and where?????

(trying to get screenshots... got one... will edit with the others when I get them)

Edit:

Ok... sound doesn't work anymore (no clue why... ambient works, etc... but, the startup screens no longer give me sound.

The Unique Unit is 100% correct.. and I think so is the UB.

The pics that are missing is all I can see I don't have right.

Edit 2:

I have narrowed it down to the Civilpedia where under Civilization and Leader the flag decal for my civ doesn't display (yet, it displays during the game).

its probably just the art define tag leading to the "button". Or its that the button is not saved in the correct format. I'd recommend using AsioAsioAsio's button maker, perhaps reading a tutorial on the relevant subjects. Also the button should be saved as a DDS, DXT3 compression, with no mip maps.

hmmm.. the DDS, DXT5 does fine with the flag on the world screen.

and the only places that the flag doesn't show up is in the civilpedia under leader and civilization screens.

also, I don't have a .nif, bg or the other file...

EDIT: changed the flagDECAL to a DDS DXT3 with no mip map and still don't get it in the places. I can post the save game file... didn't think of that!

here's the save game file and you can see under the civilpedia where it's pink.

well... I tried to go back to the threads, mod tutorials, etc etc etc...

Now?

I can't even load the mod without it crashing as it tries to load the uncached xml.

I doubt the save game will work for me considering I don't have your mod. The flagDecal and the button are two different things. I'd recommend looking how someone else did it in other mods and doing it the same as them. Maybe find a simple mod that just adds a civ, a UU, and a UB and use those same methods.

I give up...

I've had to load and unload the game 7 times now.
