Replace red alert... More ALERTs edited 8/9

Post by tjhkkr »

When the game generates an alert because your ship is under attack, it shows a pictures of something blowing up...
Despite how many times I have seen it, whenever it comes on screen, I am wondering what blew up... I guess it is a throw back to the Star Wars Rebellion days when a similar picture was used to depict sabotage...

Anyway, I sort of changed it... I use this picture now. IGard and all the other ST2:Wrath of Khan will recognize it...
You will have to convert it to a png file to make it work in the ui directory.
Enjoy it...

Way to go TJ! [&o]

It works best as a PNG file for me.

And, of course, no set of alerts would be complete without:

Hah! You see that Mr. Data? Now that I've got this new alert system you'll never take another Ale from my cargobay again!

Thx for confirmation TJ, I was worried it could slow me down. As for the hair, I have no part in such feminine practices....they scare me even without the emotion chip [;)]

Well, ehsumrell1, the alarm works perfectly against androids, even with beards... I just was not going to tell Data that.
I think he is more interested in the Orion girls than he lets on...
