Where is the changed components.bmp? In order for it to work you either have to change the default file OR make sure its in (Campaign Name)/Images/Components/Components.bmp. If you do the latter the changes will only apply to that particular campaign.
There is no 'images' directory in the campaign directory tree. There's only the one components directory under the image directory, which is directly under the starfury root. P&N has an image directory, but it contains only some effects that I guess override or suppliment the existing image files.

I have changed the original file, replacing it with an entirely new components.bmp - and in the game, since for some reason it is not reading the image bitmap index line in the components.txt file, I am seeing completely different graphics in the game (whatever I've put into the slot it addressed previously).

Q:
Does the game engine look at another file altogether to parse its component images? That is the only explination I can seem to think of as to wny my altered components.txt file is not functioning correctly.
