New Graphic & Sound Mod for Aces of the Deep

Yes, very nice!

I would like to know how you do this as I was hoping to do the same in the areas of awards and promotions, but make it so they would be actually awarded in play and not just imaged as I did below.

The hex edit files list the Iron Cross, so ..?

Excellent work, I can not believe that this is possible.

Do you have an ETA for this?

Thanks guys!

As for an ETA, seeing as its christmas I might not get to do much today but I'll try. I want to compile a small but nice graphic mod as well as include the relevant tools, documentation, and write up a simple description of how to do this. The weird (but lucky) thing is that the graphic modding is not really that difficult..

I need to work on the periscope bitmaps so they blend more with the rest of the room graphics. Those files are completely independant from each other.

@Silent Otto:

Sure enough, you can modify the graphics of all the awards. I am going to write up the procedure and share, when I can. The pictures all exist in compressed BMP format. I extracted the higher awards / iron crosses here:

No hurry, this already looks really great.

Wow, this looks excellent, great work! Great to see Aces getting love in this department as well.

Very nice!

Nice work.

Waiting for the Tools and documentation as those may lead to more Hacking of files.
