Hi all,
With regards to the weapon attributes list, does anyone know where I can *see* each attribute? For example, under starburst style, there is morningStar, flare, plain, and lightningStar - but I cannot remember what each one looks like :oops:

Also, is there a screenshots repository somewhere, or can someone make one, maybe on Xelerus? It would help a lot. (I have the big Transcendence all-ships jpg, it has been invaluable too me.)

It's a thing I always wanted to do!

Atleast for the ships! But I'm way to lazy to do that by hand and recheck them all every new version!

My plan is to write a little piece of software that would do all that automatically! And even more! I had anthe idea of an XML parser that would give you infos on all kind of stuff: Images, attributes, generic data on items, weapons, stations, ships and so on!

My current progress? The idea is somewhere in my head and I think I already have some of the code up there but nothing working yet!

//Edit:
I should also mention that I'm currently only learning c++ and I'm not really sure how to realise this programm (I'm years away from some nice looking GUI app)! Just wanted to point that out! Current plan is to parse the XML to bring it to some wiki/html friendly syntax!

Hi Bimbel, hi all,
In case anyone doesn't have it already, I will post the big all-ships jpg on Xelerus, along with the few screenshots I have of bases and such. I'd love to give credit for the all-ships jpg where credit is due, but I'm not sure who made it. As far as my coding goes, I have no formal education, but Wikipedia has lots of info on LISP, which (please correct me if I'm wrong) Transcendence is written in.
