For the best results, follow these guidelines: Sky.png = texture for the lower sky (the upper sky uses the floor*.png)įloor.png = single textured floor (and upper sky)įloor_a.png, floor_b.png = dual textured floorĬreating a texture is as simple as making an image and saving it as described above. Rim_wall.png = texture for the outer walls ' TODO: put folder locations in a single wiki entry and validate' Folder must be named "moviepack" only (no extensions or numbers). Simply drag a moviepack folder to this location. Mac OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/Armagetron Advanced/ Unix/Linux: /usr/local/share/games/armagetronad/ Now you have a backup available if you want to restore the original. Instead of replacing any texture files, you should rename the original file and then copy the new one into the folder. Textures are images displayed during the game.įor exmaple the image on the outer wall can be changed by exchanging the rim_wall.png file. It is important to note that there must be an existing moviepack installed to single update to a new model.Ĭustomizing default textures Installing a different default textureĪrmagetronAd allows to change textures of the floor, the walls, the cycles and the sky.Īll textures are contained in the "textures" folder. In your Armagetron Advanced moviepack directory (see above) locate bike.png and cycle.ase and replace with the new ones. You should inform the author of the moviepack of the problem so he can fix it. If settings.cfg is partially or completely capitalized, no textures will load even if they are properly capitalized. ie, change filename.JPG to filename.jpg and it will probably be OK. In particular, upper case extensions can cause problems. to correct this, manually change the case of the file to suit. In Unix based Operating Systems, where file case is important, sometimes a texture doesn't display even though it appears to be installed correctly. The easiest way around this is to first install the original moviepack (get the ZIP) and install the moviepack you actually want on top of it. Armagetron Advanced looks for files that are not present in the moviepack. This means that the moviepack you installed is not complete, i.e. Sometimes you get errors after installing a moviepack, such as The armagetron installation and configuration paths should be somewhere else on the wiki, too Problems Windows TODO: put folder locations in a single wiki entry and validate Mac OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/Armagetron Advanced Windows Vista: C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Armagetron Windows 2000/XP: C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Armagetron
