Sprite Photo

[cashgrany]

Hello everyone ; I saw in the database editor; in "unit-general-spritephoto" ; how do you add spritephoto?

The photo feature is currently not in use. It may be activated in the future when we know where and when the photos should be shown.

Err... This feature is working fine. Although it requires manually editing CustomResources file.

[Linda_Sheffield]

1 Create a photo of a unit - unintmname.png

2 Create a folder at ...\data\graphics\your_folder and place unitname.png there.

3 Open resources_custom.xml and add:

<sprite name="Unitname" base_angle="0">
<image file="your_folder\unitname.png" />
<translation origin="center"/>
<rotation origin="center"/>
</sprite>

4 Open Database Editor and add unitname in SpritePhoto field.

Aaand all this trouble just to see photo instead of sprite on unit selection screen during mission generaton

I notice database in Russian!

What mod it is?

[Linda_Sheffield]

I translated russian part of Database and changed generic names of ammo to precise model markings.

I thought I disabled the feature when I implemented the new UI, but if it works then everything is fine [:)]
