Is there ANY way to be able to have more than 64 different planet pictures? I know that is the max set in the EV Bible, but a few more would be nice, no matter the work it takes.

I don't think so.
You can always try!

No. The numbers mentioned in the EVO Bible are hard coded into the program. No matter what you try, EVO will only load 64 pictures. You can, of course, use the custom picture feature for the planet info box, but the spob pictures are set in stone (to borrow one of andrew's favourite phrases)

Do you think this will be fixed in Nova?
I mean it would be pretty stupid if you'd only have 64 planet graphics for a huge universe like Nova's...
I think I just answered my own question...

I think it's still fixed, but it has a much higher limit. Wait until EV:N comes out anf we'll see.

Oh well. Besides, I do have a big universe in the plugin I'm working on. There are, currently, 375 systems that will some sböbs. Guess I'll work with what I have.

I think someone once mentioned something about using ship sprites (possibly frames and/or others sprite types as well) for planet graphics. maybe a forum search could find it, but I don't remember the specifics.

Give it a shot. Matt Burch told me once that he'd upped it to 128 as of EVO 1.0.0. Perhaps the documentation didn't get updated.

(Note - if it is indeed a 128 limit, then there's really only 125 useable because of a conflict with the explosion spďns.)

Try it and tell me if it works; i'm interested.

Someone contact Mr. Burch and tell him to make a whole lot of spöbs and stuff. Tell him to have a maximum of 350 shďp resorces. Same with all the other resorces.

(edit)Okay, it's a little much, but I like lots of ships.(/edit)

Yes, I was pinched on ships also. Don't know if the 1500 spob limit and 1000 s˙st limit is going to hurt my plug. Depends on how many visbits.
