Re: The neo-standard thread- Standardising additional hull sizes.
 

dogscoff, <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I guess what I said was confussing, SORRY! I am not going to arbitrarly add images. I mean to add images the Neo-Standard ++ until there are a total of 20. Modders would decide what those images would be. After those 20 slots are full just add another '+' to the Neo-Standard ++. Does that make more sense?

Re: The neo-standard thread- Standardising additional hull sizes.
 

Dogscoff, why does the Neo-Standard page still not mention anything about Adamant Mod? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

Re: The neo-standard thread- Standardising additional hull sizes.
 

Dogscoff, when you asked about updating the Cluk-Ruk you mentioned the Sat pictures were wrong.

On the neo standard page there ARE no sat pictures. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif Can you update it, or at least post the standard names here?

EDIT: or are they on the ++ list?

Dogscoff:Legacy of the Ra'shrakil uses quite a few Neostandard Images and then some! Please update accordingly. Oh and Hughs beutifull rendition of my Azlokian also uses Neo-Standard images.

PS:Make a Generic Neostandard ++ Shipset! ^__^

Re: The neo-standard thread- Standardising additional hull sizes.
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">OK, will do. Not sure when, but hopefully in the next few days.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yup. got that one- been up there for a week or two now=-)

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Uhhh... maybe. I did post a few generic starliners and an elite infantry a while back for proportions players, but I have no idea where to find it now. I think you'll find it in forthcoming Versions of proportions if nowhere else.

I might have a few other generic ++ images scuffing around here somewhere as well, but apart from that I'm afraid you'll have to find someone else or wait a looong time. I have a bit too much on my plate already- sorry.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yes, they are, but even then I think there might be some confusion. However a quick look at existing sets with extra sat images (ie the Puntherraian, the Moonbeams, my KanesS and your ClukRuk) showed the most popular naming convention to be satellitesize rather than sizesatellite, so this is the one I imagine any mods which use the images would adopt. It also Groups the images together alphabeticallly in the folder=-)

Also, remember that there's no need to allocate a size to all three images: You can name any one of the three just "satellite" and let it fill the gap by default, ie satellitesmall, satellite, satellitelarge or satellite, satellitemedium, satellitelarge. These will display correctly if the mod has just "satellite" as the default for all three sizes.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yeah, sorry about the delay. Fixed now.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">It has been on the site for a while now, you just never posted in this particular thread about it. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif And come into #se4. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: The neo-standard thread- Standardising additional hull sizes.
 

*dogscoff drags this dusty old thread out of the archives and mumbles an ancient curse. The thread stirs. It draws breath! It has been resurrected!

OK, anyone who actually gives a toss may have noticed that my lengthy hibernation is now over (for a while at least) and I have started updating my website again and trying to tie up some old projects that have been dragging on for waaaay too long.

Anyway, I'd like to bring the neostandard pages up to date. Once again could I please ask all modders and shipset creators to go to http://www.dogscoff.co.uk/neostand.htm and http://www.dogscoff.co.uk/neostandlist.htm to check that their beloved creations are not only listed but correctly listed, then post here with the information and/ or corrections I need to bring those pages up to date.

Please also feel free to use this thread to vent new and entertaining ways of expressing the fact that I'm a lazy, unproductive bastard who ought to be doing all this research himself rather than bothering all you nice people to do it for me. Your comments are unlikely to change the way I do things, but periodic bouts of verbal abuse do at least help to keep my outrageously inflated ego in check.

Thanks everyone.
