In a mod that I'm working on, I've realized that I have to be able to fully override the Ship Status screen in the game, or at least the actions offered on that screen. I know there's DSF, which allows custom menu entries to be added to that screen, but can it (or anything else) replace/override tha...

1. Right now, I don't envision new damage types for Part II. Part I takes the player from level 1 to 10; Part II will go from 11 to 20 (and I haven't yet decided on Part III). But level 20 will be enough to sample some dark matter powers. We already see some limited dark matter in Part I. The Penit...

not yet the default xml works fine for normal coding If you want a syntax file that highlights not only xml but also tscript, then use jedit. digdug has created a nice syntax file for it. It is somewhere on the forums (i can find it for you if you end up needing it) About customizing. You can possi...

2. I'm not sure

OK, I use notepad++ myself. Is there a syntax file for transcendence's XML/lisp dialect?

1. I'm about to start coding a mod, and I'm wondering what tools people use to actually write their code? Anyone use an XML editor, or does everyone pretty much go with notepad? 2. I asked this before, I think, and I never got an answer: How much of the graphics for Transcendence's HUD are customiza...

Thank you for the suggestion.

The CSC and Rigel Aur. gate in Eridani are supposed to be there in debug mode.

Ah. Now I know to keep debug mode off if I don't need it. Thank you for your help!

:roll: You started the game in debug mode somehow. In the main menu there should be a button at the upper right saying this. Just click it to revert normal play. However, this doesn't change the status of any saved games AFAIK. I know debug mode was enabled, because I was using a shortcut that laun...

I haven't used G.O.D. in any of my regular games, though.

Steelwing, what mods do you have? If the CSC's name is CSCHQ.... then it's my fault. (my DySys mod has a spawnable CSC) Captain's Log DSF G.O.D.Mod - I'm making a mod of my own, and so I have this tool for helping with it. I just started another new game without any extensions, and the CSC was ther...

I just started a new game in 1.05. The Rigel Aurellius stargate is showing up w/out my ever having reached Rigel Aurellius...And instead of the usual Thor's, there's a CSC here!

Turn off all the lights in the rendering scene (easier if you kept them in a separate layer), replace all textures with a simple black one, change background colour to white and ... Re-render all your frames :) Then at the end just fire up GIMP and make the frames negative, so that the ship is whit...

OK, I'm working on a playership mod, and I need some help with the graphics. 1. I've done all the facings already. I rendered them in Blender, and they look quite lovely. :D I just need to work out how to do the mask graphics. Anyone have any hints on making masks for a playership? 2. The HUD graphi...

I think I've finally got something that I'm happy with for the coloring of my ship. This view will be used for the ship selection screen... Now to figure out the facings and the masks...

I found a way to get my model into Blender and decided to do all my materials and rendering there. I also decided to....adjust my color scheme. I wasn't sure that purple and yellow looked right for an organic starship, so I decided to try a different color combination that looked more "organic". Sta...
