wghost81 Posted March 6, 2014 Author Share Posted March 6, 2014 I may be able to handle graphics. What's the plan? :smile:Plan was to actually bring those unfinished nationalities in game. I can expand name generator to handle more names and we'll need First/Last names to fill ini lists. As we probably can't make new flags for human pawns, we'll need to replace flag on the back with some generic flag and make UI flags for missing countries.

As we probably can't make new flags for human pawns, we'll need to replace flag on the back with some generic flag and make UI flags for missing countries. I can make the Portuguese First/Last names for the .ini files. It would be very nice if it was possible for Brazilian soldiers to also use this list to correctly generate their names instead of the Mexican/Spanish lists that are currently used, even if Portugal (my country) isn't added to the list of soldier countries. One suggestion: instead of replacing the flag in the back with a generic flag, would it be possible for soldiers to randomly get a military insignia? I've done this for my Military Insignia and Markings mod where the flags in the back are replaced with insignias from actual military units:http://static-3.nexusmods.com/15/mods/151/images/thumbnails/373-1-1376054999.pngThe issue with my mod is that soldiers from a particular country will always get the same insignia.

wghost81 Posted March 6, 2014 Author Share Posted March 6, 2014 (edited) I don't know anything about graphics, so I can't say if this could be done. As for other nationalities... it will always be possible to replace any of restored country with any other country by changing ini names and appropriate flags. Portugal currently uses Spanish names, but it can be changed. Edited March 6, 2014 by wghost81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakous79 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 (edited) I'll start with UIFlag of Indonesia, Iran and Pakistan. These can replace UIFlags of Kenya, Saudi Arabia and Zimbabwe in gfxXComIcons. Also I can explore armor model's material instance constant, if it can be changed to allow more than 32 flags.

Amineri Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 The issue with my mod is that soldiers from a particular country will always get the same insignia. The solution to this is a fairly simple hex edit in XGCharacterGenerator.CreateTSoldier. You want to swap the line: kSoldier.kAppearance.iFlag = kSoldier.iCountry; to: kSoldier.kAppearance.iFlag = Rand(32); or something similar.

Drakous79 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I think the generic flag (if is graphic available) can be defined in XComGame.upk, XComContentManager's DefaultProperties: struct native CountryFlag { var config XGGameData.ECountry Country; var config float U; var config float V; structdefaultproperties { Country=ECountry.eCountry_USA U=0.0 V=0.0 } }; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wghost81 Posted March 6, 2014 Author Share Posted March 6, 2014 We'll need a lists of Turkey, Indonesia, Pakistan, Iran, Venezuela, Columbia and Portugal names. I can start by googling for some examples, but it could lead me to some weird combinations as geography is not my best subject. :smile: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
