Use species_defs.tbl. Like for example this file (http://koti.mbnet.fi/vekkup/FS2/Species_defs.tbl)

Also does anyone have a nameplates.dds that's transparent and 2x2
I don't have the software to do it, and i don't have the time
When i have that then i can get rid of those green transparencies :mad:

I don't belive I compressed it, but the 1X1 nameplate file doesn't work even when uncompressed.
