Missing planet files

[Hully]

I have just downloaded the full and latest 1.7.2 the game starts ok but system screen displays white box where picture of planet should be?

Error

Unable to load "C:\games\space empire IV gold\pictures\planets\p0636.bmp"

Obviously I’m missing something

Any help appreciated.

You need the planetpack.
http://imagemodserver.mine.nu/other/MM/SE4/imagemod/

Download and extract to the se4/pictures/planets folder. It will overwrite the planets.bmp, but that's ok. All the stock images are left unchanged, and it will add about a thousand more planet pictures which are used in mods such as the one you are playing.

-----

The combat pack is an easy additional download at a mere 93kb, and adds a ton of weapon animations.

If you have a fast internet connection, you may also want to grab the other packs available.
The facility and component packs are quite large, but are also required by many mods.

-----

Notes:
- The additional graphics provided in the imagemodpacks aren't used by the stock game, but are called for by many mods.
- You do not need to install the images in each modfolder, just place them in with the stock files once, and all mods will be able to use them.
