Mod help

[Vizth]

I keep getting a cannot load image error every time I start the game. I have all the images in the extensions folder.

[dvlenk6]

Might be a typo, might be wrong format for image tag or image call, might be a UNID problem.

Could you post your xml doc for a look?

[Vizth]

I think it's a unid error because i really have no clue what that is, lol.
I'm using a premade image I got off transcendence images and the most of the xml is from a ship I downloaded, but I just about everything except the armor.

the names of the images are. freighter2shield, freighter2ship, freighter2mask


ok, here it is

I normally dont do this kinda stuff, sound fx are just about the only thing i'm good with.

The one thing that stands out from reading through your XML is that you have 6 armor segments, but only 4 shown in the armor display section. Those numbers need to match, I think. There's armor display for 4 segments and 8 segments, as well as higher ones in some of the ship mods that can give you the basis of the armor display. A good one is any playable xenophobe defender, because that has 8 armor segments.

[Vizth]

thank you.

Something else that may or may not be causing problems is your UNIDS.
The extension UNID is 0xD0623035 but the ship resource UNID is 0xD100V002.
The designer ID (first four digits after 0x) should match. I'm not sure if it has been implemented in this version, but I have read that George was going to make that mandatory for extensions at some point.

I changed 0xD0623035 to 0xD0633035 and everything works now.
