I got an extension to load an image from Extensions\Images!

This makes for much cleaner mods! Now I can package my graphics so much easier.

I tried this in 098d and it didn't ever seem to want to look in a folder, now it does and that's great.

Why does the game try to remove black from images used in dockscreens if they don't have a mask?

At any rate, I am glad that the game allows Images\image.jpg in extensions now.

Code: Select all

	<Image UNID="&rsBlueStarIcon;"	bitmap="Images\StarBlue.jpg"  bitmask="Images\StarIcon1Mask.bmp" loadOnUse="true"/>

Heh... yeah I did that but I thought it would have always allowed that and that it musn't have been anything new. I guess it is though...

I recall trying to set up the images in a folder in extension several different ways but it never worked- and it was on the request list for 099 so I decided to try it again, and (Yay!) it worked.
