PBW Picture Problems

Rewrite of the history? Hmmmm. Is this a game where the game owner modified the empire history before the game start? If so I think I know what happened. If the game owner didn't have your custom shipset loaded on his PC and he edited the empire file it would change the shipset to the first one in his races folder. Stock Abiddon in your case, or it would have been whatever custom shipset he had in his folder that comes before Abbidon alphabetically. No way to fix this without restarting.

Actually, I was the one to rewrite the history (in the Gron_AI_General file). But something like that may have happened. I had to send in my emp to be put in manually. If the owner had a peek before putting it would probably have that effect.

Crap. I was hoping there would be a quick fix. Curses.

I think this is correct:

You could change the picture(s) in the Abbiddon race file during the duration of your game and then change them back later. However, all of the Abbiddon races will use your pictures during that time...Greybeard

The problem is that another player is using the Abbidon. Mine is duplicating his. Tis the doubling that is disturbing me.
