[OpenXcom Extended version 7.5.7 or newer is required to use this mod] (Get OXCE 'HERE')This mod is not built to be played, instead it is a tool for allowing quick access to all of the
X-COM: UFO Defense drawing routines.
To use this tool select "
New Battle" from the main menu then "
Equip Craft" followed by "
Armor".
You will find that there are now several new armors that can be equipped, these correspond to the various X-Com and Alien units.
Before the name of each armor is the drawing routine used for that sprite sheet, for example
dR: 1 is
drawingRoutine: 1 used by the alien Floater unit.
My hope is that this can save a bit of time as this mod's
.png image files can quickly be swapped with your own sprite sheets to check how that unit will look while walking around ingame.
If your sprite sheet is a different height or width than the sprite sheet you are replacing it with then you also need to modify the
extraSprites_ATK.rul file's code to match the new image size.
The values that need to be changed are
width: &
height: for the related entry in the
[====] Units / Armors [====] section of the
extraSprites_ATK.rul file.
For example if you wanted to swap the
Muton.png sprite sheet with a new image file that has a size of of 512 by 720 you would need to change this code in the
extraSprites_ATK.rul file.
- type: ATK_MUTON.PCK
width: 512
height: 680
subX: 32
subY: 40
files:
0: Resources/Unit/drawingRoutine_10_Muton/Muton.pngSo that the width & height variables matched your new file's image size:
- type: ATK_MUTON.PCK
width: 512
height: 720 # <====
subX: 32
subY: 40
files:
0: Resources/Unit/drawingRoutine_10_Muton/Muton.pngThere are also one and two handed weapons available at the top of the equipment menu:
