<h2>Graphics</h2>
|
|
|
|
Please take a look at <a href="graphics/palette.html">graphics/palette.html</a>
|
|
before working on graphics to get an idea of the palette.
|
|
|
|
<h4>Buildings</h4>
|
|
|
|
Buildings are simple to do. Each graphic consists of a .png file using
|
|
the palette format specified in the link above. The top half of the graphic
|
|
is used for the main image, and the bottom half is for the construction.
|
|
Here is an example of 'farm.png'. Please also see the ccl files.<p>
|
|
|
|
<img src="graphics/farm.png" alt=farm><br>
|
|
|
|
<h4>Units</h4>
|
|
|
|
Units are a little more complex as there are more sections per graphic.
|
|
The 5 columns represent the directions. The rows are varied among
|
|
different type of graphics, see the ccl files for more info. Here is
|
|
an example of 'peasant.png'. First 5 rows are used for movement,
|
|
next 5 for chopping, and the next 3 for dieing. Note that the peasant
|
|
has 2 other graphics, one for carrying gold, another for carrying wood.<p>
|
|
|
|
<img src="graphics/peasant.png" alt=peasant><br>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Sounds</h2>
|
|
|
|
Any format of sound will work with Stratagus, although to save space it is
|
|
recommended that you use 16 bit, 22050 kHz, mono format. To save more
|
|
space, it is recommended that you gzip the file too.<p>
|
|
|
|
All the sound entry data is in data/scripts/sound.lua,
|
|
Here is an example lua entry for: data/sounds/human/buildings/farm.wav.gz<p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>MakeSound("farm-selected", "human/buildings/farm.wav")</pre><p>
|
|
|
|
Note how the '.gz' suffix isn't needed in the lua entry,
|
|
the Stratagus engine detects this automatically.<p>
|
|
|
|
You may look through the script files for existing media for more examples.<p>
