Re: Race/Ship set designers, can someone do this? (Invisible Shipset Finished!)
trooper, the invisible shipset will not be be effective in PBW. The way things are displayed for you depend in the graphics that you have installed in your machine.
You can either not install the shipset at all (that way you get changing shipsets) or just put a folder with the name but no files in there (that way you can the generic shipset).
Nothing to worry about  .

Re: Race/Ship set designers, can someone do this? (Invisible Shipset Finished!)
Since the AI is not affected by this, and other players in a PBEM/PBW game are not affected by it since all they have to do is replace the images, the only effect of using this shipset is to make things hard on yourself by making it a little more difficult to keep track of your own ships. If you are trying to give yourself a headache why not just play a regular shipset and hit your self in the head with a stapler every couple turns?
I just don't get it.

Re: Race/Ship set designers, can someone do this? (Invisible Shipset Finished!)
Well. As previuously stated....
The idea came from SE4 by committee.
Having a race in the game as invisible rangers.
But the shipset was just a way to try and see what it looked like.
Now I'm planning to make a somewhat peaceful AI to go with it. That way you can use it in your singleplayer games with it being played by an AI,thereby (yes) making it harder for yourself.
 If you want it easy, don't play at all. 
If you want to use it before I make an AI (wich might take some time) you can copy a generic races text files to the invisble folder and rename them.
(btw, I don't recommend the stapler thing, this shipset won't give any pemanent injuries!!)

The ship artwork is amazing! But why did you make the troops naked?
