Online Unit Reference
 

Following is a link to a simple list of Unit ID's, their names and a link to a screenshot of the corresponding unit's information screen. The image captures were created & kindly shared by Maltrease, and Kristoffer O has said that he didn't mind me sharing this with the community. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

(KO expressed his intention to make a downloadable file of all sprites in the game, but has been unable to do so due to time constraints.)

NOTE: Access is currently password protected to minimize indexing by bots & wider distribution of the images.

Hoooooooo ... Units with their images, I will be able to make something with that.

Thanks Ballbarian ! ^_^

Re: Online Unit Reference
 

The sprits are the wrong size, right? So all we need to do is resize them by whatever % they need,.. and clean them up a touch,...

This saves me time messing about adding units to test nations to see what they're like and taking screengrabs.

Re: Online Unit Reference
 

Beware of making things with that. There was alot of discussion on whats already been offered and deciding NOT to make it findable online, not provinding a zip of the entire library, and other worrisome things. Getting Illwinter AND Shrapnel to agree on public libraries gets beyond a casual conversation. If we step too close to the line we might end up getting a rock-hard rule created on the subject that would take the easy way out, and that could impact all of us.

This wasnt aimed at anyone in particular. Just a general comment to everyone creating things for the game.

Re: Online Unit Reference
 

If they mind their sprites being altered and re-used in a mod for their own game that's going to be played by all of 20 people,.... well then I guess that's up to them. Sounds a bit daft to me.

Re: Online Unit Reference
 

They dont mind that. It wasnt the use in our mods I was trying to warn about. Its the creation of another tool for use by modders. Something that would include the entire image library. Sorry for the miscom.

I think the biggest concern would be seeing them show up in mods for other games. Or even as the main library for another game someone is selling.

Re: Online Unit Reference
 

Well turning up in some other game for sale,... that they could fairly easily take legal action agaist I would think.

But as for other people using them for mods,.. I don't think that's too terrible. I mean I used graphics from a spiderweb game to make a mod for dom3. Since I'm not selling anything and it's not going to be played by millions of people I don't feel that's morally wrong, though I'm sure it's legally iffy.

Re: Online Unit Reference
 

If it gets announced here it gets removed. You should probably contact them as soon as possible and ask their permission.

Re: Online Unit Reference
 

I sent them (spiderweb) an email before and got no reply (it's possible but highly unlikely that the mail server here swallowed it). I can try again. To be honest I'd rather have the mod removed than have to pursue something like a formal physical letter containing express written consent. I mean it's not like it benefits me in any way to make it public, I just figured I'd share something with other people who enjoy the game.

Either way, I have no wish to break the forum rules.
