How on earth will Jack breath up there? I know! With a force-feild that prevents air from escaping and so Jack doesn't get torn apart in space! So basicly it's just Jack with a forcefeild on. Wait until this mansion... er... space station is complete to find out!

I renamed my own music, put it in the right place, told the editor to play it in a sertain room, and I got a error window pop up when I played the mansion! What did you name your music? What index did you enter in the editor? And is it an MP3?

Wingy, as I said before.... of course it is possible to edit sprites (in the Midnight Mansion Sprites resource map), it's just not possible to do it in the

resource file of your mansion

(as it is with tiles).

I'm currenty doing custom graphic sprites myself...and it's a lot of fun !!

You said that you can edit the tiles in the resource file... I don't quite understand. Huh

Maybe I didn't express myself clearly enough - I'll try again:

Since update 1.0.7. it is possible to put custom graphics of TILES (editor left) within the resource file of your mansion (= "StarCraft" in your case). You do not need to put the custom tiles into the "Midnight Mansion Sprites" resource file anymore (as it used to be in earlier versions).

But if you want to create custom SPRITES (editor right), like change the look of monsters or switches etc., you still have to do that in the "Midnight Mansion Sprites" file, unfortunately.... which you then have to give to the players along with your mansion.

That was what I meant when I said "edit in the resource file".... of course the real "editing" (=customizing the graphics) has to be done in PhotoShop or something like that.

Ok thanks for clearing that confusion up with me. Now about StarCraft...

I'm going to make sorta "episodes" of this mansion. Each time you finish you'll be teleported away. Not really, but you'll have to continue on with the story in the next "episode." It's going to be chopped up and going to be

BIG

. (I'm guessing, abit bigger then

Volcanis

) Not as big as

MMaM

though...
Anyways, I'll keep you all updated when I finish the first "episode!" Cheesy

Cheers,
Wingy Grin

P.S. I might finish the first "episode" this Weekend!

You'll have all the costom Graphics and all this weekend!

Here's a screenshot of one room. You may have noticed that the bar above is different and Jack is different. And the keys, too!

Also you may have noticed the "elizabeth" "head" is different. She's riding the most powerful human unit, the Battle Cruiser. The "auther" "head" is riding a wrath, which is not as big. The only bad guy I didn't change was the momma spider. Also, I deleted all blood and acid and the sounds for them. But you can still hear the heads dying as the ship burns went they hit a torch!
