Default Re: Modifiying Proportions\' graphics.

what exactly are you talking about ? Proportions is using the imagemod, so in fact you already have access to ALL images. You could just change the bitmap numbers in the datfiles, this wouldnt break a game but it would make MP unpossible. Sorry i didnt understand you right.

No, it doesn't. It includes all of the graphics used by the mod in the download, and they do not match up with images in the Image Mod. Also, many images in Proportions are not present in the Image Mod.

Not quite true. Proportions 3.0 is using its own bmps for components and facilities. So you'll have to merge components.bmp and facilities.bmp from both sources (for mini pictures). Also copy 128x128 bmp from pack to proportions/pictures directory for larger pics. There will be lots of conflict between file names and places in compiled components.bmp and facilities.bmp so a lot of copy/paste work is awaiting for you. All this mess is to keep MP compatibility.
