OCD for Unit Graphics

Whitchit · Nov 26th 2017

Sooooo as many of you may already know, I have some form of unit graphics OCD ( UK Graphics Expanded ) but recently something has really annoyed me. We are able to upload animated graphics packs - I think you know where this is going - but we are not, so far as I am aware, able to upload animated graphics for individual units. Personally, It's killing me inside, and I hope enough of you feel the same that we can have this added to the Dev's list of highly requested things. Here I am, ever hopeful!

If you guys could let me know by way of the poll below, I'd be most appreciative. I hope I've included answers that fit most points of view...

We've had this going for a long time, somewhere in the waiting list, personally sort of given up with the game till it comes along

actually you can load graphic's on each unit but you won't be able to use a graphic pack to give each unit its own graphic click on the unit and edit and the click on the picture icons for that unit and add the graphic pic you want and then click save.

We're talking about the in game animation(non image and then image file being shown one after the other) not being used for our own apng images (it ruins the animation).

I like this idea. I would like to mention, as Im sure it has in the past to have a consistent graphic from non emerg to emerg so there is no pause in between. Does this make sense?

Currently, when enroute to a call, it pauses between lights flashing and doesnt look realistic, any way to change this?

Thanks

That's why I set this thread up. I am aware that APNGs can be added to the individual unit, but not in the same way that graphic packs function.

I think I understand but I need to clarify just in case I'm brain dead in these topic. For each station I have, I have a picture for each emergency vehicle in that station. I have created an animated image for each vehicle in that station. So to be clear, I have a different image for each vehicle. I mean the flashing lights while in Emerg, there is a 1 to 2 sec delay as it does not flash consistently.

Is this what you mean or am I just repeating you typed and I am not understanding it.

@hawker5 Yes, the delay is because the game does not recognise that it should use the animation the way it would for a graphics pack, and instead flicks between both images as though it were two stills rather than a plain and an animated one.

Ahh okay. Is there a way to correct that or is this not fixable?

@hawker5 at the moment I do not believe the dev has made any fix for this

Do you want animated graphics to be add-able to individual units? 26
