RE: Ship Size Images Issue

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>I read that too in the modding guide. What you suggest to fix it sounds like it should work, especially in PS where we can split the transparent background pixels as a different layer and then merge the ship image layer down onto it and save as a Png, might work. Or maybe ...

It's all explained in that thread Darkspire posted. The game doesn't care about image size when determining the size to render the ship on screen. It only cares about the number of transparent pixels in relation to the number of opaque ones.<br ...

RE: Ship Size Images Issue

<t> Ah darkspire you just beat me to it. That is all I've found too, and despite having played with that (I originally thought it was for the physical design) it is indeed NOT for the images. Still at a loss as to why my resupply ship is getting blown up so much (its to the point where its terribly ...

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 disseminated a LOT of modding information on DW in the last 3 days so there's no telling where I read it or ...

I'm still new to modding DW as well but I <I><s>[i]</s>"think"<e>[/i]</e></I> 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.

Crap yeah its a typo. Doublechecking my file, its 110x110px. But still, the images themselves don't seem to care about the size of the files I made, which are all scaled in pixels accordingly (the ...

Ship Size Images Issue

<t> So going through my first mod, some my ships are being strangely resized in-game. No idea why but I made all ship images to be sized accordingly and correctly (all square and sized up to 300x300 px) but some ships get horribly enlarged... for example, the most notable is the resupply ship. The ...

Your timing is really strange... My 40k, BFG post will answer your question (in modding)

Warhammer 40k Battlefleet Gothic Revisited

<r> Hi... I'm pretty new to DW and as a longtime 40k and battlefleet gothic fan, I had to pick up where another modder left off a while ago. I noticed there was a mod for it but it got abandoned so I decided to work on it.<br/>
<br/>
First though, this isn't meant to be a 40k overhaul. At least ...

Ship classification means little. You can design an 'Escort' that's the maximum 500 size and a Capital Ship that's 200 size. It might help the AI in using them, but otherwise...

Adding New Units

<t> I wasn't able to find anything on the ability to mod in new ships. I'm new to distant worlds and love it. As a huge fan of space empires V, I was hoping they'd make a new one soon but I doubt it. This is definitely the next best thing.<br/>

Anyway I'm working on a new ship set for 40k ...
