Title: Oops - self-made medals
Post by: forgottenlord on June 30, 2011, 10:56:30 PM
So after two days of playing, I decided I wanted to create some medals - specifically, I was interested in just building a slew of service ribbons.    Of course, the included set of medals are a bunch of full medals.    Considering they were images in one of the images folder, I had the *brilliant* idea of just throwing one together in Paint and trying to use it. 

And, of course, the game wasn't too happy with me. 

Error 53 was generated by Aurora
File not found: 'Medals\rvey.  jpg'
Please report which I won't because it was me messing with things blah blah blah

Anyways, it now displays that message (though lets me carry on without huge complaint) every time I load the medal screen.    My question is, is there a way to fix this?

(On a side note, service medals or an ability to import other medals would be a cool feature, but considering the search shows up one hit on the word medals or service ribbons outside RP posts on both the forum and wiki, I can understand why it isn't remotely a priority)

Take a look at the files in the medals directory already. Your new medal must follow that scheme.

As a side, I think Steve said once he hard coded the number of medals in. If so, you need to remove a pic and replace it with one of yours.
