So, I know what to do, but not. ...By that, I mean, I get what to do, just not how to do it. ...By that I, er... Know what? I'll just type the longer part.
I'd like to add a few custom portraits and race logos to the game. I know where the appropriate image files are and I can edit them. I've been able to insert custom things properly by replacing what already exists, but I'd rather add new ones instead.
The first and most obvious problem is, I don't know where to tell Sins I've added more. Based on the fact that you need to tell it how many .entity files there are, I assume there's another file that says how far to read each file. Where's this at?
Second, I don't have any templates for the race logos. In the portrait icons there's a black border that I can toss pictures on, or when I'm replacing one I just line it up perfectly, but in the race logos there's no border to use as a guide. Is there a file with guides drawn somewhere? If not, how do I go about properly adding more?
Finally, how come the game only ever uses the first image for the pirates? Even the vanilla game has two but I've only ever seen one appear. Distant Stars adds two more, yet only the first ever shows up. Replacing the first does change it, but I'd like the game to pick between what's available randomly.
Any help would be appreciated!
