Playthroughs / If alien detect our base..is it possible to clear their attack?

« on: March 19, 2018, 01:34:31 pm »

I know when our base is detected aliens send Battleship constantly when we destroy it using fusion deffence. It's happening because game will think that the mission is not yet over and it will prepare another battleship to attack the base. So if we let attack our base...and wipe all aliens is it mean they will stop sending Battleships?

So I've created Nuclear Missile Craft Weapon. Ammo Max 1...the problem is when I set during fight Caution or Standard Attack weapon is launched and my plane is retreat on save distance straight away and weapon is unable to hit the target. Only aggresive attack works...

Help / Custom palette for items - I really need advice :((

« on: March 13, 2018, 11:36:46 am »

Thanks to you guys I know how to use proper colors/better for UFOPEDIA wchich is freaking amazing....I know how to create own base crafts/ sprites but I'm still struggling with items / weapons colour (
Can anybody write good tutorial how to set colours from lets say custom image to match original image palette but fully compatibille with game?
AT the moment I have one palette and all weapon using the same colours ( It's the last piece of my puzzle to sort out...
I'm using InfranView, Gimp and PS CS4
I'm using OXCE+

.. the game doesn't care what color you put in your palette... when the images are loaded, your palettes are ripped off from the images, discarded and replaced by the palettes that the game wants. The GIF transparency is more or less the only exception... but it is definitely not a feature, it is a side-effect, and should not be used.

- but I can't make it work....
