Creating planets and planet bonuses

Uzii, Danman, please help!

from Sins Forums

I'm trying to create some more planets and planet bonuses to add onto the solar sins mod, but I don't know how to create HUD icons or where to put them. I also need to know where I can download XSI.

You need to play around with quite afew things to add bonuses.  For making hud icons go to the textures folder of the mod you are editing and look for something that says icons-hud.tga or hud-icons.tga (something like that) there are afew that have a name similar to that so try looking for planet bonuses already made to get an idea of what to do.  You also need to make new entity files and edit with the string files and planet entity files to make your bonuses work.

I already knew about the entity and string files. Just needed the hud icon info. Thanks XselenS.

What's the XSI file size? I have dial-up.
