Transformer Conversion Mod???

from GalCiv2 Forums
Hey there, I'm a big fan of transformers, but lack any sort of modding ability. So I was wondering if any modders out there could make a transformers conversion mod(ie: like the already existent B5 mods), please?? It'd be really cool, and very appreciated.

Go to: -

C:\Program Files\Stardock\TotalGaming\GalCiv2\Movies

and rename or delete 'TitleAnim.bik'. Just add OLD in front or something
That should do it for you.

Of course, it was something very obvious. Thanks!

This is awesome, wish I could mod, can't even do .xml files, hope you're done soon. Not to rush you, though I'm just glad other people are into this idea.

By the looks of things there will be at least one conversion. Not sure if i will release mine once it is done or not. That will depend on if i can get the .bik files to look good for trade screens etc

No, I'm using static images right now and will probably have static images only. I'm a newbie when it comes to modding games.

What size & format do you need it in? Trying to work with Bink & Smacker but cant get it to work for me for some reason!! Probably need to use a different program to convert the animated gifs into .ani forst maybe??

It is possible to change the first contact message with other races right? I've edited GC2_Conversations.xml but the modifications are not taking effect in the game.

Where is the GalCiv2 logo that is displayed on the title screen located? I can change the title screen background image to my own but the GC2 logo still stays put. What little thing am I missing?

Also, the changes I make to the GC2_Conversations.xml file do not take effect in the game. I have it in the Data folder of my TF mod, is there a specific folder it needs to go in for it to work? The modding guide doesn't really help in this area.

GC2_Conversations.xml needs to be run from the main data folder i believe. i dont think the game looks for it in the mods folder... Fire an email off to CariElf and ask her what needs to be done Be sure to let us all know here LOL

Ok....

!! UPDATE !!

There appears to be a typo in the game that stops the game looking for the GC2_Conversations.xml file in the mods folder. Cari is aware of this and we can expect a resolution shortly (i have the test build now).

I never use the mods folder, but every change I make take effect in the game, GC2_Conversations.xml as well. I can send an image if you guys want to see... but only if you want cause I don't have much time to copy a picture from the game and all that shit... (sorry)

Thanks

OK, here's my Transformers Mod v0.1 Beta. There are a few minor bugs that are noticeable that I'm trying to resolve. If you happen to know how to fix them let me know. Just unzip it and put it in your GalCiv2\Mods folder.

Very cool mod man, I'm definitely enjoying it, but I don't see any bugs.

I'm glad you like it. Once 1.3 is officially released, there will be some more changes and music included.

BTW, how is the color difference for Decepticon, Predacon, and Cybertronian? I tried to get it so the purples were not so identical.
Reply #99 from GalCiv2 Forums Top
Cool, sounds like it'll even better, when will that be? Oh and yes, all the purples looked sufficiently different.
