This doesn't actually concern the file, but rather, the energy itself. Can I change the three colors of energy?

|-red-|-yellow-|-----blue-----|

to

|-ddr-|----dr---|------red-----|

ddr= deep deep red
dr= deep red

As always, thanks, in advance!

top three rows of the gradient file - you'll figure it out

I kind of wanted to say the gradient file, but then I found the color file. What's the difference and what does each do?

In a hurry! TIA!

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 & burst trail
Line 7: lvl4 bullet 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).

huh..... neato... and here I thought you had to put a lvz image in to get a background color other than black. Here's the thing about that. If I wanted say a solid blue backgroud, I'd change row0 of colors.bm2 to blue. That I understand. Wiill the stars still appear? If so, how would I get rid of them? LVZ'ing in files with the same names as the stars but empty pictures?

I believe you can turn off stars via the Client-side in Options.

Correct, you can shut off stars from the Continuum settings; but if you're trying to force everyone not to have stars :/...

So then, the method I suggested would be correct...

Cyan~Fire · Posted: Thu Aug 26, 2004 6:22 am Post subject:

Yes.

However, the pixel-stars will stay on, since they are not graphics and can only be turned off throught the user options.

Hmmm, so you couldn't just change the color of these pixel-stars to match your background?

you ask too much of our Estonian hacker, K - he can't do things like REMOVE PIXELS:P

Katie · Posted: Thu Aug 26, 2004 8:01 pm Post subject:

I ask too much? I've been back for a week!

Anyhow, with all do respect to our "Estonian hacker," was he not aware of the stretchiness of Continuum? Did he not know that the games could be varied indefinately and to such extent that they have no real relation to "Subspace"? Had he have known this, shouldn't he have made the "random points of light generated by Continuum" server-side and not client-side?

I'll stop rambling now... but I thought I'd ask that... so that everyone hates me....

You still change names really quickly.

he just doesn't care much about Continuum anymore or isn't a perfectionist

it is much improved since SubSpace, though, so we shouldn't complain too much

Oh I must have missed that explanation with one of my semi-vists that destroyed the new post thingies.

Katherine isn't a bad name. And I think that even after having a sister with that name.
