Let me add the qualifier: "I can now play the Adamant mod, but some of the pictures do not work."
I downloaded the FQM version of Adamant, and I have the image mod torrent file in my pictures file. What have I done wrong?

Did you point the Image Mod torrent to the SEIV folder or to the Pictures folder? It is designed to be pointed directly at the SEIV folder itself.

You should have files named up to Comp_1837.bmp in the SEIV\Pictures\Components folder. If not, something went wrong. Also, check to make sure there is no Pictures folder inside the SEIV\Pictures folder.

If that isn't the problem, open SEIV\Pictures\Components\Components.bmp and see if you have a blue strip on the right side with light blue/cyan numbers. It should go up to 1872 for the last row. This file should be about 7 MBs.

If that is ok too, we will need more specific information on which pictures do not work.

Political Savvy affects resources, research, and intelligence income from treaties. This isn't as much of a concern in Adamant as in stock, however, as Adamant limits trade income to 10% rather than 20%. On the other hand, the threshold cost of reducing PS below 80% is a pathetic 5 racial points and may not be worth it. With 9 other races, all of which are teamed with you and will likely establish permanent partnerships on first contact, it might actually be worth raising PS.

You're welcome. Don't worry too much, you can always retreat to your 3 homeworlds and their 100000 or so shields if you have to. It'll be a while before either monster race is able to beat those, and I'm not going to just sit in orbit blockading. My monsters like quick resolutions of battles. Plus, we monsters are outnumbered 5 to 1, and we don't get to expand.

I got it working by manually pasting the files from the image mod into their corresponding files in the picture file. Everything looks ok now.

Could you please answer this question? I need to know if there is an issue with how I have set up the image mod torrent, or if it was just a case of choosing the wrong destination folder. Thanks.

"Did you point the Image Mod torrent to the SEIV folder or to the Pictures folder?"
