Having trouble finding antimatter material for FactionDefs.xml

from GalCiv3 Forums

I am currently creating a new race and using the in-game editor I used antimatter as the visual material for their ships, however I can't find an xml file to give me the name to place in this line instead of the Iconian steel.

<Material1>GC3_Ship_Material_IconianSteel</Material1>

 

Please let me know if I need to give more information, I appreciate any help you can give :)

 

     Thanks,

It will be in GC3MaterialDefs.xml in the core game folder I believe.

I was looking in there and couldn't seem to find it, Could the name be different from the one displayed in-game? 

 

 

Edit: Found it, its listed as Onyx_Material_01 rather than antimatter, thanks for the help :)

That's ok after I said that I couldn't see it in there either pleased you managed to find it. Label different from internal name I guess bit of a pain when looking for it.

Yea, I found that they were in the exact same order in the xml as they were in the in-game editor so its a bit of a pain but you can compare the 2 and write a guide for the correct names in your own text document to keep track. :)
