Gryphin - nice, but i didnt think about the possible issues - you better remove the nice background.

Now for the new updated, those transports look a little dull dont you think?
And L. Carrier looks "lighter" than its smaller brother - carrier

Gryph: Love the set, it's a definite download for me when it's ready.

I don't think you necessarily need visible engines on yor ships - plenty of shipsets don't have them. Whatever looks best.

I downloaded doga 3 and have been using it for weeks without paying a thing. I'm pretty sure I did this without pirating anything.

mlmbd or anyone: how do I get multiple textures on a ship using doga 3? I can only get one texture which covers the entire ship. Also, how do I use my own textures? Oh, and what does this patch do?

I have played a little bit with the ships with the background. All of the minis have "0,0,0" Black for their background. What kind of issues should I be alert for? Thanks

Gryph, have you used the styletester on your shipset? That will highlight any "issues" as far as backgrounds are concerned. You can download the tester at malfador's site. put it in the same dir as your images and run it to view the images, the click "mask" to see how they will look when the game needs to mask out the black (0,0,0) portions.

Um, if I build it, will you use it?
The images are already called for by many mods. from 3 to 6 big mods depending on which image, IIRC.

As soon as you add the images, they will pop up even in games already in progress.

dogscoff,
Yes thanks, I did download the style testor. The only issue is is chokes if there is an image missing. It won't go any further. I'll borrow a few from other sets. or use a bunch of "dummy" ships.

They will mask different in 16M and 64k color depths, make sure to check both.

It will only choke if for example you have a portrait and not a mini of one of the sizes.
