Maybe some of the MOD maker can answer you, however I don't thing they (Activision) shipped them with the game eventhough they did show some in pregame shots.------------------

Does anyone know how to enable the diplomatic photos?Also, why didn't Activision include this feature? |

I suspect the game DID ship with the photos but Activision just didn't include them as a feature, probably due to bugs (AFAIK there's no way to check this since all the graphics are compressed and/or encrypted). And no, I don't know how to enable them, I don't think it's possible but to be sure you'd have to ask someone who knows a lot about the ldl-files, which is uncharted territory so far: outside Activision no-one knows very much about them. |

Locutus did not someone at Activision tell us a few months ago that we would be amaze at what is in the game (CTP 2)?
Mark G. my game still crashes one and awhile during "change of turn" and I remember someone asking you if you could maybe get some codes from one of the people who did work at Activision so one of our Apolyton engineer could maybe find the bug that is still in CTP 2, is that possibe or not?------------------

I know the photos are in the zfs files. And I can put them somewhere in the game, but I don't know how to put them at the right place. I played a little bit with the ldl files, therefore I know the dipwizard.ldl contained some lines which can implement an photo you have just remove these signs "#":DipWizard:CTP2_DIALOG_WINDOW { string title "str_ldl_DiplomacyWizardTitle" Details {
string objecttype "ctp2_Static"
int xpix 290
int ypix 29
int widthpix 250
int heightpix 320 #Picture:CTP2_STATIC_IMAGE {
# int xpix 4
# int ypix 12
# int widthpix 64
# int heightpix 48
# string image00 "updf01.tga"
#} But there is no updf01.tga in the zfs file only updp010.tga.
This is a diplomatic picture. I tried to add buttons and pictures to these files but with no effect, maybe it can be done by slic. You can change the size and place of the elements of the window easily but I don't know how to add something. |
