For the fleet range icons, is only the buttons on the fleet UI changed, or did you also change the fleet range map overlay?

I just can't get the game to recognize this mod no matter what I do. I download it, place it in the Customization folder, load the game, select it as the theme, head into game, and then nothing. No UI changes, no ship design/component changes, nothing. Can anyone running the latest Steam version confirm this mod is working for you???

Any chance of putting this file somewhere else. I have tried a dozen times over 24 hours to download from Google and just keep getting "Too many people have downloaded this file, come back latter"

Uploaded to mediafire, just click the download link it should be working just fine.

Do you have this material in a zip file. Vista does not want to unpack a "rar" file and I am reluctant to buy a special program like winzip just to do this one job. Your mods look awesome, but if there was a standard windows zipped format it would be great.

Thanks.

i like those additions very much.
not all of them (the cursors for instance) but mostly the rest looks really really great.
but i have a problem and that has nothing to do with your pics (or those from the modders and contributors).
its i think a problem of the game itself.
all the "show travel vectors" and so on buttons are not taken out from the folder.
i have the pictures placed in the folder. for instance the scenery.png
it is not working. any one knows how to get the right image working?

nevermind, now it is working. i had to reload the gamne and also i removed the (too big in my eyes) cursors.
then it worked. it looks lovely!

Great stuff. I think I have almost all of it installed and it really adds nice touches to the game! Thanks.

Hi,
Sorry for the question on a topic from last year, but does this mod need a new game to work.
I cant seem to get it to work. I copied-pasted the images into the original game but no change to ui ?

Any help appreciated

you must copy the files in their respective folders (ui & environment) in a customization sub-folder (called stuff & bits UI or whatever you fancy) AND THEN press on "change theme" on the start menue and select the mod.

i perosnally mainly use icemanias ai improvement mod (extended version with haree78's new races) as the base mod folder and then copy & overwrite the things i want changed in the "image" folder of the icemania mod folder. this way you can basically use one main conversion / overhaul / balance mod + x number of cosmetic mods :).

Dang, wish this worked with the Bacon + Retreat UE mod. Seems to cause it to crash on certain buttons[&:]
