Pirians will probably be easier I guess :d just something with a fiery flare about it

... and then just scale it with increasing size.. lol a whole nation based on the same sprite

Yeah there are dominions sprites that I know would work at least as placeholders. I used them in a mod I occasionally fiddle with.

I'm dabbling in #copyspr right now, so one quick question: Do need the name of the unit I'm copying or its unit number?

rdonj · #4 January 7th, 2009, 06:58 PM

The unit number is better since dominions has multiple units with the same name.

Do you have any version of the AllView map? It lists all the units from 1 to whatever, named "1", "2" etc, and it's the best way to go through the units when you're looking for something.

Here's a version of it I made. It only works if you have a mod enabled (Dom3000 works), but it should still be up-to-date. Create a new game and play as EA Ermor.

I have a version of it now.

I'll be sure to use it when messing with sprites.

let's not use it in our soon to start game yet since it's completely untested.
Maybe try and use the order Sombre uses in his mods for the different parts of the mod.

Darkwind, plz download the file I've attached to this post, I've edited your file, cleared up a few errors including the ones that didn't let you start the game, and another after that that wouldn't let you either.. and I've actually made your pretender appear in the game.. and given him the pretender stats of moral 30, mr 18 as they all have.. I think you'll need to do some thing with him though seems underpowered.. but at least the nations seems to be working. not tested it further though

ps the keypoint was that startsites can't use numbers but need to use names, seems to be incorrect in the manual.. I'll tell thingie that works on it

I fixed the problem with two copies of each Shoggoth and my horrible misunderstanding of spells. Here's a new zip of the nation, hopefully less buggy.

I'll likely start actually playing tomorrow.
