Default Re: Lastest Mods

my only complaint is the eyestrain.
That can be fixed by replacing the hyperspace bitmaps with something less painful, like the nebulae. When I do the next Version, I'll put the details like the dimensions of the bitmaps in the readme file, so people can make their own images to taste.

[edit]I thought of an easy fix for the eyestrain problem: go into SystemTypes.txt and change the five Hyper#.bmp references to Starmap.bmp . You won't be able to tell the turbulence levels at a glance any more, but hyperspace will still be visibly different from normal systems (because it's got nothing in it but warp points), without sacrificing the nebulae. I'll do this in the "lite" Version.

Cap'n Q
My first mod! Hypermaze quadrant
The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the
human mind to correlate all of its contents. We live on a placid
island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was
not meant that we should go far. -- HP Lovecraft, "The Call of Cthulhu"
