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 some new images in the gallery for character pictures:

• Necromancer - he is now sadly deceased but if he returns you can see from this very scary picture what he will look like
• Thundarr - a male barbarian who looks just as you would expect
• Ookla - a male moc, who looks as if he'd claw you to bits for just saying hello in the wrong tone of voice
• Sceamingeagle - a male human, according to SpyNet, but to look at the picture he's either wearing a very good disguise, or he's undergone extensive gene therapy.

All in all, a batch of scary pictures of threatening characters. Where are all the nice, fluffy, lovely Fedders?

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 also a new picture, showing the planet Aekonia in the Soed system, a fairly standard view of the world from orbit.

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.
