Thanks ben for coming back. I was scrathing my head for a while thinking if it was binary, hex, some random addin for c#. But thanks for the clarifycation, and good luck with the game concepts!

This is the first version, the bits are either 1 or 0, and going from left to right and then from top to bottom. (The header is described in the thread.) There is also a second version with base64-encoded RGB pixels (24 bits per pixel, same order), check my workshop. And sorry for the inconvenience, I actually have a tutorial, but I never had the time cutting and uploading it. Maybe someday I can come back, but now I'm busy with my own game concepts.

So can you clearify Syndicate Image Format? Is there any easy way of doing this?

You can access the full API via creating a dedicated MOD in Visual Studio. I think they blocked allot for safety reasons. They still developing the ingame API. hopefully it will become much better.

It was tested about two versions ago, since then I haven't played. Sorry... I have a lot of ideas, but this time I'm too busy coding my own game engine, and I cannot express how much better is C++ than C#. Both is quite challenging, but these blocked functions are really annoying, so right now I just can't return to Space Engineers...

"common language runtime detected an invalid program" is not a C# error. Its a restriction put in by the developers. There are allot of cool C# things that are blocked, for no good reason. like foreach(var item in items) for simple iterations, or beloved Linq.. sob and some other stupid stuff. Every time I try to use thos it gives me that stupid error. But that is ingame mode only, I htink making proper mods let you do anything you want.

Frell yes. This. Unf. I would hump your face if I could my good man.

that is cool!

Oh, the image generator? That'll be a webpage, and I'm adding Standard 2 support too. I have a newer version down here on my computer that can display RGB images, but I'm currently trying to decide to publish it or not. It's extremely performance intense and there's also a strange bug, you need an external timer to display images correctly...

Hey great, once there is an easy way to make such images on my own I will definitely use it.

Currently I opened Notepad++, made a 32x20 grid of zeros, and changed to 1 where I wanted a pixel. Then if you delete the newline characters, and write the magical "32 20 1 1 " string before them, it makes an image like the ones you can see above. I would like to make a simple HTML app that takes your image and converts it, but in the past few days I was busy with a ship project and some IRL stuff...

nice but how do you edit the images?

This could be my Flight Attendance!

Thanks... I'm currently testing with thrusters instead of lights, they have much lower refresh rate and better performance, but no hope of other colors and stuff. I found a limitation (the game can only apply 1190 actions) and currently trying to fix it. So I can promise one thing: that wasn't the last version ever. BTW there [imgur.com] are some images of the current progress...

appreciate it, very well done

nice, pong
