Default Re: The neo-standard thread- Standardising additional hull sizes.

WOAH! Chewy, I think you are missing an important point here. If a mod wants to comply with the neo-standard, it doesn't *have* to use all the images if it doesn't want to. That would mean all mods having the same set of hulls, which would defeat the whole object of modding (variety.)

The point of the neo-standard is to make some extra images available to modders. They are free to use some or all of them as they feel appropriate.

Phoenix: here's a quote from the explanation page of the neostandard site:
quote:

We welcome input and co-operation from any modders and shipset creators. This standard can only
be only as good as the mods and shipsets that participate. Taking part is easy:

If you are creating or maintaining a mod,
take a look at your vehiclesize.txt file. Are there any non-standard hull sizes in there that could be represented by the images described in the table on the main page?

If so, make the appropriate changes to that file and save it to neovehiclesize.txt in your mod's main directory. Leave your original vehiclesize.txt as it is.


Please keep us updated=-)

Hadrian: D'oh! That's the tiny carrier, right? Never mind, I'm sure the extra image will come in handy anyway. I'll have to change the tables to reflect the fact that it isn't currently used by your mod.

Everyone else: I'll try to update the html and upload the pages tomorrow evening: I'll be hosting and linking to the Vandron, updating the tables to include the tech mod, and I'm sure I'll find other changes to make as well=-)
