*Recovered* [MOD] PG13 Version (Less NSFW) 0.99F3.105 (Thanks Juku121!)

[KBGhost]

This is a good idea. I think some of the images in the bootypedia are really out of place, not because of nudity but some just look like they were taken straight from DeviantArt and simply don't fit.
Besides that, streamers might be able to give X-Piratez more publicity.

@ivan (or anyone else who knows!),

After seeing this and reading the linked thread, I tried to modify some bootypedia background art myself. Problem is I have no idea what I'm doing and the result is a colourful mess!

What do I have to do to the colour palette to make it consistent with all the other bootypedia articles?

Thanks in advance.

@Marza:  The best I can say, is if you follow the steps in Meridian's post here https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,4957.msg72548.html#msg72548 you should be able to get it to work.  I'm using Irfanview and Paint just as he described.  My post on the bottom of the thread includes one bit that helped me out too.

This is my template text file that I use to copy into my palettes:

Code: [Select]

0 0 0 # color 0, file index 4  (Transparent - replaces 181 230 29)

#Cut lines 5-26 and paste these values in the correct locations:
# after cutting the last entry should be on line 237

# colors 81-88, file index 85-92 (Buttons)
224 224 240
212 212 232
204 204 224
196 192 220
184 184 212
176 172 204
164 160 196

# end

# colors 240-249, file index 244-253 (text)

# Dioxine's background color for pages:
# 24 12 36

Meridian mentioned that he was probably going to put together a short video on how to do this, also.

[Dioxine]

Marza, what happened to your GUI colors? The text is impossible to read.

[Marza]

After staring at the provided template text for a few minutes I think I've done it properly now. Thanks again!

[ivandogovich]

Added about another dozen or so images (Up to about 44 replacements now).  New package in OP.

Some Previews:




Edit: redacted Builder's Hall image.

[tylor]

Like them. Some are actually more naked than originals:)

[Dioxine]

Builder's hall, less NSFW? My ass, rather more female exploitation

[Carfax]

I have to agree on the builder hall picture. Its way more impicit than the original one but thats why i´ll keep it
Too bad it doesn´t really fit the general tone of the rest of the pedia art, but so was the original. At least in my opinion/taste.
I also like the cave hunt art. The original had more nudity and was cohesive with the general idea in this part, but what struck me odd was the colour onslaught and her fearful face expression.

Just to make myself clear. I am only expressing my opinion and don´t what to criticize Dioxine or anyone personal. Especially with art its always personal taste.

You're a runt, you didn't sign up for any fight, you get sent into the caves with some lousy torches and javelins... why wouldn't you be fearful?

My choices are based on a message, not if that ass is rounder than the other or if the colors are prettier (gritty is good). The message for Builder's Hall was 'Strength, Stability, Independence (from the player)'. But yeah, I'm not gonna criticize anyone's art tastes.

[ivandogovich]

Closing in on 66/78 Pedia images done.  Adding about 22 images.  Heres a few more previews:

You make a valid point there.

The white border in the "Our Abilities" image is rather visually unpleasant.
If possible white (or very light) backgrounds should be avoided.

Similar for "The most common superpower", where it causes text to be harder to read.
(And same for standard "Back to School" picture)

Smooth Captive is AWESOME tho!

[Marza]

If you look closely there is also a copyright watermark covering almost half the picture in Our Abilities, which is a shame. Also the alternative picture for Krazy Hanna turns out to be a duplicate of the Tank Killer commendation picture.

Apart from that I give two thumbs up.

[The Think Tank]

Exceptionally excited to see this progress, we may be able to reach and tap into a whole 'nother audience with such a mod, and for that I am excited at the possibilities.
