Default Re: Proportions + Devnull + special ingredients = Derek\'s Mod Gold

The minis are all found in components.bmp

It sounds like you have the comp####.bmp, but you missed the components.bmp.

If you are trying to use the imagemod, You need to delete (or move or rename) your old "components.bmp" and replace it with "newcomponents.bmp"

I didn't want the imagemod to overwrite any files automatically, but if it saves trouble, I might just have it overwrite just that one...

Suicide Junkie, what did you mean by your first statement. The one about having component ####.bmp, but not component.bmp?

Also I have removed the original component file and replaced it with the newcomponent file. This is in the Derek's Mod Pictures Folder that I have done this, in the components folder.

I tried this in the original SEIVgold pictures/component folder once before and have found that I can not load any other mods other than Proportions and Derek's Mod. So I had to go back and place the original components.bmp with the newcomponents.bmp. Why?, I do not know.

What you have to do, is place the newcomponents.bmp in your main pictures file in your main SE4 directory, and then rename it as components.bmp It sounds like you are doing everything correct, except for the renaming part.

The facilities image problems will be taken care of in the next release. It was mostly a mistake on my part.

By the bye, the reason there is no new release lately is twofold.

First, I am stuck for ideas. I would like to add/change some things, but I am not sure what.

Second, I am waiting for the next patch of SEIV to come out, so I can modify the compenhancements.txt file for some things.

Third (ok, threefold, not twofold), I am waiting for PvK to release Version 2.3 of Proportions, so I can see what parts of that I am going to incorporate.

Most likely, whether the new patch for SEIV is out or not, the next Version of Derek's Mod will be out shortly (within a day or two) of PvK's Proportions v2.3

Provided, of course, he does not mind that I am still basing the economic portion of my mod on his mod

Ahhh at Last, all I can say is duh. Thanks Derek, my image problems have finally been solved. Isn't it funny that the most obvious solution is the one that is most steered away from.

Everyone, no matter how smart they are, occasionally makes a dumba$$ mistake Actually, it's usually the smart ones that make even more mistakes...
