But, i need it to be big. I also want interesting effects by making it fire blackness...

I'm sure you could whip something up in Paint of GIMP that would work fine. Just draw a black circle a few pixels across and save it in your Resources folder. It doesn't require any 3D skills, because it's a 2D image. Couldn't you also just have it use a laser projectile and set it to black?

If you don't define an image, it won't hit anything. If you define an image, and set the dimensions to 0 x 0, then add a trail (like on a missile) and make the trail 1 wide and 1 long, then you have an invisible projectile that can hit stuff (also helps to use a dark colour for the trail)

I've neglected to define an image several times and it works fine. You have to delete the whole line, everything related to the image, not just the name.

Eh....what ever. I just need a program to manipulate the images...

GIMP
it's free and it's a good app.

[goat not sheep]

...how many files do you have to download exactly...

[dvlenk6]

Windows?
One or two. The installer package and, if you need it, the runtime package.

D6? can u give me an organic-looking ship now, or soon?

[goat not sheep]

You know...I noticed you don't really have some...really tiny ship...nothing "hornet battlepod-sized" on your site. Maybe there should be one...

[dvlenk6]

All right GNS. I finished the project I was working on ( HERE ) and could now make an organic ship of some kind.
What do you have in mind?

[goat not sheep]

Something small and looks like a bird. Basicly, no space armour or metal of the sort.

EDIT: ohh! Nice godess picture...

[goat not sheep]

Hmm...D6, you must be busy... when do you think your next image will be out...?
