NEW CHARACTER AND PLANET PICTURES

by Hazed

There's a bunch of new pictures you can download and add to your various FedTerm folders so you can see what Fed folk and their planets look like.

First up, there's a two new images in the gallery for character pictures:

  • Cronos - an ordinary-looking male human. He's quite cute which makes a change from the ugly, threatening pictures we have had recently.
  • Sycorath - a male vektoriat, whatever one of those is, who seems to have a spider's web stuck to his face, which I am sure is very uncomfortable.

Download the pictures by right-clicking on them and selecting Save As... and put them into the pictures sub-folder of your FedTerm folder.

In the planet picture gallery there is new picture, showing one of the second planets that have just appeared: Mykonos in the Aegean system, which from the picture is a very dark world indeed.

Grab this picture and put it into the Fedterm\planets folder.

If you want to let other people see what you, or your planet, looks like, you should make a picture to show us and mail it to feedback@ibgames.com. Character pictures are 80 pixels wide by 96 high; planet pictures are 172 pixels square. Both should be in .bmp format. Character pictures should be named after your character, ie pugwash.bmp or newbod.bmp. Planet pictures should have a filename to match the planet name, ie marina.bmp or rigel 4.bmp.
