Possible to Mod Angry/Happy Movies?

April 28, 2007 4:57:21 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
I created a set of portraits for some of my custom opponents, one for neutral, one for happy, and one for angry. I figured out how to set the Neutral portrait pretty easily, but I'm wondering if there's a way I can have the Angry and Happy pictures show up when relations are bad or good?

The pictures are PNGs right now if that helps any.

Thanks for any advice.

For some reason this isn't showing up on the active posts page?

The forums have a logic of their own, quite possibly voodoo of some sort, it's not worth trying to understand

As far as I know there is only one static trade image. To have something different for each mood you have to use movies. Have a look at the RaceConfig.xml file, the tags are mostly self explanatory.

The forums "active" topics are updated like...every 10-15 minuits, so it seems. Possibly the result of a slow server? But about your topic, I dont have a clue, sorry.

I'm talking about the movies that show up when you bring up the tech trading screen. I tried changing them in the Race's file to the .PNG Images I had, but it doesn't seem to have worked. Is there a particular location I need to specify? I have them in the movies folder under mygames/galciv2/darkavatar/gfx/movies.

So, it has to be an actual movie, no way to use an image?

Seems that way. You can make your own videos using the RAD Video Tools.
