Re: Lost Empires

Well, I fixed the long loading time for the Cyrannus system. It was apparently due to excessive use of AddTerritory. After removing several of the redundant lines, the system now takes about the same amount of time to load as any other system. However, I've also discovered that the two stargates for...

Re: Lost Empires

OK, well I've uploaded 6 xml files relevant to the Cyrannus system. LE-XMLs.zip The CyrannusSystem.xml itself (which I am proud to say I reduced from over 30k lines to under 400 through the use of tables :P ), the SystemParts.xml (which has all of the tables related to system generation, including t...

Re: Lost Empires

Maybe you should upload the system for some of us to try out? I could post the code for the system, but I have a lot of custom tables for the generation of my planets and asteroid belts that are referenced by the system. It would require a lot of decustomizing to make it work outside of my mod, but...

Re: Lost Empires

Work on the Cyrannus system continues. I've greatly reduced the size of the code for the system through the use of tables, all 4 stars have planetary systems now, and the orbital spacing is a bit better now (though it still feels a little crowded). Here are some screenies... Overall view of the Cyra...

Re: Cover image problem

The cover image has to be defined by the adventure file (i.e., you need the <Image> tag for the cover to be in the same file as the <TranscendenceAdventure>). If the cover image is in a separate module or in library, then it won't get loaded until the adventure is run. Try that and see if it fixes ...

Re: Lost Empires

I suppose I should clarify my last post. I didn't actually make the star graphic. I simply made it useable in Transcendence and made the mask. That being said, on to my progress report for today... Continuing my work on system generation, I worked out a way to make the binary planets work as intende...

Re: Cover image problem

I tried that but it didn't make a difference. The Part1Cover has loadOnUse="true" also, so I don't think that's the problem anyway.

Re: Lost Empires

Did a little work on the stars today. I reduced the size of the White Dwarf to planet size since white dwarves are "are about the size of the Earth (but tremendously heavier)", and I've made a new graphic for a Neutron Star which I thought I'd share (the main reason for this progress report). It's r...

Re: Cover image problem

How do you do this? Can you explain in detail? I'd also like to see the code you're using to show the cover image, there might be issues there. How big is the image? -Before 1.1 if your image was too big it wouldn't display. This may be a similar issue. Well, the original image size was 1000x800, b...

Cover image problem

I have been noticing that when I first start Transcendence and go to select my mod, the cover image I am using does not show up. However, it shows up everytime after exiting the mod and selecting it again for a new game as long as I don't quit back to windows. Does anyone know what the problem might...

Re: Lost Empires

In my post yesterday, I forgot to post the updated comparison pics so I'll do that now, plus I also forgot to post about the new comparison I made for Reavers. :) If you've watched Firefly, you'll know who they are. http://media.use.com/images/s_1/97006bb1ecb6f7f64db7.jpg http://media.use.com/images...

Re: Lost Empires

Time for another progress report.... I've added 5 new ships to the Pirate comparison (including the Firespray...aka Slave I...which may be moved to a Mandalorian comparison at some point along with a couple other ships), added the Ghtroc 720 freighter to the Civilian comparison, added the DP20 Gunsh...

Re: Lost Empires

OK, this was a big weekend for me, at least in terms of working on this mod... I went on something of a facings frenzy among other things. I've added three new ships to the Cylon comparison and did two facings for them as well. I've also added two new fighters to the Trade Union - the Scarab and the...

Re: Lost Empires

I have done 4 more facings for the Colonial Alliance, bringing their total to 10. I also updated the Romulan comparison with a few more ships, added a comparison for the Borg (finally), and added a comparison for a new faction - the Cardassian Union. I'm not sure of the exact sizes for some of the s...

Re: Lost Empires

OK....I am now working with a new image host. So far no popups or offending ads on this one...so far. All of the ship size comparisons can be found in this thread's first post. Anyway, progress report time.... In my last progress report I had meant to say that I moved the YKL-37R and the Gozanti fro...
