Need help in modding
-
Hello!
I’m indepedent modder and i’m need help in some questions.
First: About Discovery mod. How you can know, they’re added HUD hiding by button. I sought in many files, but doesn’t find it. I wan’t to transfer this function to my mod, help, please.
Second: Also you can know animated hyperspace starsphere in Crossfire (from Babylon 5), how to create starspheres from .png files and how animate them?
Third: Some object, like star and tradelanes are indestructable. I try to set them limited HP, but game crashes when i destroying them. How to fix this #$%%?Thanks for answer!

1. This is not about ini, but about coding. Do you know C / assembler? If no - ask their develoers for a plugin or forget.
2. Don’t know about animation, but about creating you need to convert your PNG to DDS (it must be square and 512x512, 1024x1024, 2048x2048, etc). Then take an existing starsphere and replace existing texture by UTF Editor, or create your own sphere in 3DSMax and make a CMP from it (with some further UTF modifications, you have to replace some nodes, ask if you will choose this).
3. There’re few files related to this, you have to change both. Don’t remember which ones exactly. -
