VechicleSize.txt idea...

Oh..how cool. Wasn't aware this was possible. If someone has done this, I'll gladly include it in the next Version of my mod =) More ships type pics for the new sizes would be great!

I've already have done this and it works quite well. I have run into minor problems with adding additional racial traits to a particular races general.txt file though.

There seems to be a lot of problems with adding new race traits. I think MM should just add about 20 empty race traits that could be renamed/used. Then all the .emp file would work as new traits are added.

I will try to post my modified vehiclesize.txt file this weekend (not at my computer until then). As for the ModPack races, I reckon I will have to email them and get their permission to post their files again with the extra ships. Or should I?

I will post some shipsets soon, as well. Got one with a naval theme, ships look like (sort of) actual WWII warships, got a picture of MacArthur for the race pic and a US flag for the symbol. I might rework this one, though, since the ships are kinda of primative, and my 3dMax skills are better now. Also working on one with a sort of space sailing ship theme (for those pirate games) and another with the Martians from the War of the Worlds (the movie). Might post those as soon as this weekend.

True - you can add re-named pictures to solve the problem or add a racial trait - but wouldn't adding a custom VechiceSize.txt file for a race be much, much easier?
