Don't know if you realize this, but there has to be a Troop image for the "Robotic Troop". That<br/>
would cause the crash. The Robotic Troop image is used as a representation image for ALL the races,<br/>
thus the 'extra ...

<r> Ok, something odd to report. I took out Troop_38.png since it didn't have a associated shipImage family. Started up the game, changed themes and then back to DW:Extended just in case that would "re-load" the mod, and it still plays fine.<br/>

I also figured out why, the old fashioned way ...

Don't remove the troop images. It will definitely crash the mod. I think the game won't even start without them. That's one of the initial mistakes I made when starting out.

<r> Haree78 my friend, you'll be happy to know I've actually started working on my "Mod-Mod" today. I'm using your most excellent DW:Extended Mod as my "base mod" to start my edits customizations. While adding shipImage families I notice your family count goes to family37, but in the "troopImages ...

Here's something you may use RavenX. I'm attaching a zip file with some Babylon 5 Shadow vessels<br/>
I use in a couple of my testing mods. Hope you can use some of them to base your ideas on.<br/>

Lordxorn was able to make his ships look smaller. It was the Nebulon B Frigates from Star Wars. They're very thin, which meant that they rendered very large in-game. Even larger than the star destroyers. We got round this problem by adding more ...

You're very welcome RavenX. Of course you can use my stuff for your mod, I know there are people who've spoken about how they'd like a multi-universe mod with lots of sci-fi genres. Should be good. [:)]<br/>

I suggest you start a game ...

DauntlessK, unless something was changed since my previous tests, all 5 of those will come out at the same size. Really sorry I didn't mention that in my earlier post. The game will ignore the outer transparent pixels and only render from the ...

I will experiment but I won't be able to for at least a couple days. I'm a bit busy. But I will try setting up a test for a plan old square. Also pngs can't have layers.<br/>

I thought I read there is a 300x300 limit in size. Is this incorrect? So I can make my capital ships appear biggest by making them 300x300 but making the ship very small inside that box (therefor it has a ton of transparent pixels ...

I know i've come across in some of the txts a "ship resize factor" or s but I am pretty sure it pertains to only adding extra modules and whatnot. It doesn't mean physical size. Could that be what you were talking about? <e>[/quote]</e ...

Try a forum search on ship sizes/display sizes and see if that turns up anything. Also, I could have read it in the modding guide. I've ...

<t> DOH!!!! I found it....I feel stupid as hell now...LoL. When I upgraded IE versions it turned off the notice that a pop-up was blocked. The email and PM buttons work now as do the download links. I can't believe I didn't catch that....<br/>

Thanks for the help Paul, much appreciated ...

<t> I haven't tried with IE 8. I've been using 9 since it came out and as I said just this-morning upgraded to IE 10. Perhaps it's something to do with newer IE versions? I've checked all my advanced internet options and I don't see where there could be something stopping it. Let me check my pop-up ...

<r> Sure no prob, here's one example from the Modding forums.<br/>

Could SSL and TLS versions have anything to do with it?

I'm still new to modding DW as well but I "think" there's a line in another script that has something to do with the sizes ships display as while playing. Could be wrong on that though.

<r> I tried compatibility mode, still no luck. I'd really rather not have to install another browser though. Every time I try another browser aside from IE I end up not liking it and it tends to mess up the structure of my "Favorites". Not to mention all the instability issues and back-door hacks ...
