Question about race modding
Posted: Sun Jan 08, 2006 1:20 am
I would like to know if it is possible to insert a custom race picture (possibly in place of a current one), edit the default names and picks, change a flag color, and change the ship designs associated with that flag. I have seen some encouraging comments but nothing that really answers my question, so I made a new post. Also, what would I have to do to make this race playable over a LAN?
What I specifically want to do is replace the Alkari (my least favorite race) with the Irken Empire (from Invader ZiM, an excellent cartoon). I want to change the yellow flag (my least favorite, not in color but in ship design) to a pink one (the Irken color) and alter the yellow ship designs to look like the irken ones.
Additionally, I would like to change a few leaders around. I know how to edit their stats, but once again I do not know how to change the images. For those of you who know zim, I would like to replace a current leader (or add one if possible) with Professor Membrane, and replace/add the ship officers Zim, Gir (with *negative* stats if possible, if not I'll have a duty mode picture and good stats) and maybe Tak or Dib.
pleeeeessse help me.
It would be cool to make a new monster, or replace a current one, with the space-santa monster, too.
