Alternate bitmap question (SEIV Gold)

[disabled]

basically, this allows modders to add aditional ship sizes with new ship size pictures without having to worry about other race styles not having that image.

Say I add the ship size "Monitor" at 2000kt. I can specificy race_monitor.bmp as the main bitmap and race_dreadnought.bmp as the alternate. If a race style doesn't have the primary, it defaults to the alternate.

There is a whole thread on the Neo-Standard Shipset here:


Non-Standard Shipset thread

This should give you an idea of some of the standardized names the modders are trying to use
