Re: Modding Questions
It's best to use the method I detailed in another thread, namely, set the opacity to 0% and use a custom, 2-province, all-black-with-2-white-dots tga file for your map. If you pm me your email address, I will email you the "BlackUnitView" tga and map file.

Re: Modding Questions
So I'm starting from scratch. Peachy. Well, this just became a longer project. Thanks for letting me know so promptly, though, guys!

Re: Modding Questions
'sprnbr too high for this file'.
That is the error message I get when I start my game - right as I click on the appropriate nation for the first time.
Can anyone help me understand what this means? I can't fix it if I don't know what's wrong.

Re: Modding Questions
Im guessing sprnbr refers to Sprite Number.
Do you have other mods running at the same time? Try turning them off.

Re: Modding Questions
Still don't know what it thought was wrong, but it turned out I'd missed a " at the end of a unit name. Isn't that always the way?
It all works now, although I've discovered I have to go back and add in dark outlines around my units or they won't be visible.

Re: Modding Questions
I made 4 creatures today. And it took me ALL DAY. Sheesh... What free graphics programs are out that are more powerful than Paint, but still easy to use?

Re: Modding Questions
Bear on me if it has already been said, but one thing which should also be added to modding is the custom name list, as otherwise you will end with out of theme names for new nations.
