| Ok here is what i tried. I opened one of the default shp's with paint, and pasted from a bmp i made. When i tried to SAVE (not save as), it opened the SAVE AS window, so it only allowed me to save it to a bmp instead of shp. Please help, is there another way? how do you convert BMP into SHP (for shipbuilder)? This is really important to me, cuz i'm desigining my own ships for my zone, but making 40 pics of the ship rotation by hand is really frustrating. Not to mention rolling... |

| Could always try a different application for rotating. People seemed to like SOS's program. |

For rolling you most likely need a 3d model and software to render the angles with
Try SOS's like Miney suggested or fool around with Photoshop actions if you're really motivated. There is one action by roof_tiles, I believe that adds constant light shading.
ShipBuilder is very antiquated. |

lol... miney... hey miney go boomy! Anyway, you can do rolling with shipbuiler, i can just rotate the ship at need angle in my 3d proggy, and ship builder would make a ful rotation. Thx anyway, but i decided to use public shipsets. Here is the ship i made before i changed my mind
if the pic doesnt load, try this http://geocities.com/awdif/spaceship.jpg |
