How do I turn off the background stars for everyone who enters my zone? I've overridden all of the star*.bm2 and bk*.bm2 and that eliminates everything except for the single pixel stars. I was thinking maybe it was one of the pixels in gradiant.bm2 or colors.bm2, but I don't want to screw around with those until I know which pixel it is. There was a topic a while back explaining gradiant.bm2 but I can't find it for the life of me (and neither can forum search).

I know players can turn off stars for their own client, but I was hoping for a solution better than having a greet message, "Turn off stars in you're graphics menu." Thanks.

Npoe, I don't think you can. :/ Or, just overlay the entire map w/ a non-black but black like image w/ LVZ under tiles icon_wink.gif

Ya...Mine likes to delete stuff. sa_tongue.gif

Easiest solution is to put a background over the map (if you don't want stars you're probably wanting to do this anyways...no? sa_tongue.gif )

anyways...

Archive is the correct word.

Code: Show/Hide
gradient.bm2

Line 1: 1/2-1/1 energy bar animation
Line 2: 1/4-1/2 energy bar animation
Line 3: 0/4-1/4 energy bar animation
Line 4: lvl1 bullet trail anim. (the left most pixel is nearers to bullet, and right most furthest away from bullet)
Line 5: lvl2 bullet trail anim
Line 6: lvl3 bullet trail anim
Line 7: lvl4 bullet/burst trail anim
Line 8: Not used

Top left (0,0) pixel controls the color of narrow 'bar' just above energy bar (separated by transparent/black gap between it them).

Ya, sure. sa_tongue.gif It's just deleting until you produce the archive. icon_twisted.gif

Code: Show/Hide

Line 1: 1/2-1/1 energy bar animation
Line 2: 1/4-1/2 energy bar animation
Line 3: 0/4-1/4 energy bar animation

Line 7: lvl4 bullet/burst trail anim
Line 8: Not used

burst trail uses line 6; line 7 is solely for lvl4 bullets afaik

Thats the description I got from Priit a while ago. Also, it isn't hard to figure out where the 'hidden' archives are at. Trying to work on it every so often (read: once a month) so I can remerge this with the main forums.
