Title: Suggestion to FRED2 - Message Faces
Post by: Rampage on June 19, 2003, 12:34:06 pm

I just thought of something.  When we design our missions, we often miss out on what face we wish to be placed for the message.  Often I find myself opening up VPVIEW32 and reading that table which specifies the faces.

Is it possible for the coders to make a resource change in FRED2 where a picture of the face would show up in the events dialog when a persona designation is selected?

Now there's an idea!
Good show, old chap.

Just a little box, say 128 pixels wide, perhaps? With a still from the animation?

I like it. For ages I've been using this

but this idea is better.

BTW this wasn't my work and I have no idea who's work it was so if anyone objects to it being here tell me.
