Sorry, I know I asked before, but I still don't get it. ???
How are the numbers for hit- and bullet sprites in the items section related to the corresponding numbers for the extra files?
For bullet sprites they are very different and I don't see how the game chooses the right ones. Hit sprites are mostly the same, but that works in some cases and doesn't in others.
Currently I have the case that neither bullets nor hits are visible in several mods I am working on.
Also - is it possible to have different bullet sprites for the same weapon as you use different ammo?
As I see it bullet sprites are attached to weapons rather to ammo.

bullet hits refer to individual entries in smoke.pck
melee hits refer to individual entries in hit.pck
no, bullet sprite can be defined by ammo too.
edit: looking at the last thread you posted on this subject, i'm guessing the problem you're facing is with the palettes. consider the battlescape palette as a fixed constant, and do your artwork based on that, not vice versa ;)
