Love this mod.
I don't know how you guys do it but please don't stop.
Really unfortunate that someone gave you 1 star, why I will never know.
THANKS.

The author of this mod is gone, maybe someone else will be able to answer my questions:
1. Is it 1.2 compatible?
2. Are there any issues with it?
3. I can't open some of mod's .dds files, even though all the original .dds files in my game folder can be opened - is it a sign of something dangerous?

As it only changes .dds files, I am sure that it is 1.2 compatible. If you are trying to open those images in GIMP and they are not wanting to open, I would not worry about it. A few of the .dds files in SH5 have their headers(hex term) setup weird. PS can still open them, but GIMP and I think Paint.net cannot open them. If you are using PS(PaintShop) then there might be some corruption of the download, and you might not want to use it.

My main caution would be this: That mod is pretty old, and a lot of new work has been done on .dds and .tga files, so make sure that you install newer mods after this one in JSGME. For instance, you would want to install my interior mod after this one if you plan to use both.

Yes, I am using Gimp with dds.exe plug-in. What troubled me is all game files open, but not all mod's files.

I'll give it a try, and of course I'll install before any newer mods - thanks for the tip.

Do you have any info/memories about this mod's license? What about further modifications?

I just made my last payment on your contract. Unka Guido will pay you a visit.:D I'll try out your mod.

There are some stock .dds files that GIMP cannot open. If you go through the Misc folder, there are a quite a few like that.

No, I don't know about the authors usage permission. But, if someone cannot be reached to get permission to use their work, and their documentation either does not exist, or does not directly state that others are not to use it, you can use their work as long as you give proper credit.

I like it! A grimy sub is what is needed. I'd admit the shiny one blinded me.:salute:

Abd_von_Mumit 09-10-10 06:19 AM

Do you mean you can't download the mod?

EDIT:
I repacked the mod (download file is now smaller), added a readme and version number 00.00. You can find it here:
http://www.filefront.com/17278873/Ki...0-repacked.7z/

As to screenshots posted by mod author - seems he deleted his Filefront account, which is why you are unable to download the screenshots uploaded by him.

Any screenshot? I'd like to see what I'm going to donwload..

Captn Wilhelm 12-03-10 12:01 PM

Bump for a great mod. These textures are gorgeous and if loaded before Steelvikings interior, Sobers Multi-color and Dooms Deck mods it really makes the game look great. Not sure why these have not been loaded into downloads/graphics or why a talented modder got run off. :down:

Thanks Killertube and Abd_von_Mumit for your efforts. :up:

Screen shot for worriers.
