OXCE Suggestions DONE / [DONE] [Suggestion] Auto-sell obsolete equipment

« on: September 27, 2016, 06:10:05 pm »

I don't know if this is doable, or already in the game and I haven't seen it, but here goes.

I'd like to be able to obsolete and/or auto-sell equipment. This could perhaps be done through the vault screen, filtered by all bases or on a base by base setting.

After a while, getting rid of certain types of equipment is an automatic action at the end of a mission.
There are a couple of potential issues here, such as items being prerequisites for research and manufacture. This needs to be considered, but I think a feature of this type could help with tidying our vaults.

There is already a system for creating item loadouts and saving them, so perhaps a variant on that system could be used?

XPiratez / Remodelled sprites

« on: September 22, 2016, 11:11:56 pm »

I'll add more as I make them. I've tested them in-game, and they seem to be working fine.
Feel free to use these sprites in the mod if you think they are good enough.

Any input is welcome.

Disc of Death remodel added. The old one was very undefined. Not 100% happy with the contours and shades, but I think it's an improvement. The basic idea is that the five holes are for the fingers, and the purple space is a palmrest/power unit.

Bayonetted musket added. The blade is a little on the thick side, but I tried it with a thin "realistic" poker, and that looks too flimsy for the gals. Why not have a big meat skewer?
It also helps preserve as much of the original musket as possible without sacrificing too much length.

XPiratez / Chaingun remodel and palette fail

« on: September 15, 2016, 10:50:48 pm »

I took a stab at remodelling the chaingun and imported it into the game.
I then discovered the whole palette problem, and the gun shows up in a beautiful yellow and white.
There are some posts in the modding forums to help with this, but I need to ask:



Is the palette  the same for Piratez as regular OXcom? (I'm sure I can work out how to install them)
Can the engine not handle other palettes? And if so, where can I change it?
Where should I submit graphics if I do more of these, for constructive critiscism if nothing else?
