About Build Interface

The About Build interface is really thoroughly outdated and needs somebody to go through it and fix it all up.
This does not require any real coding knowledge, so anybody could do it. And it would be hugely appreciated!

The text itself can be found in RESOURCE\INI\TEXTS\ENGLISH\about_build.txt , so that's where to edit everything.
You can find the required information in the game's "Build Info.txt" and additional stuff in the Documentation folder.
Of course our ModDB Profile also contains a lot of information that might be useful: http://www.moddb.com/mods/new-horizons/

So... anybody interested?
 
What exatly do you want? If some images, then I could make you what you need in few seconds... If some game specific ones, like ship screenshots, nope, I won't do it...

Just write egsactly what do you want.
 
It sounds like you need a writer. There are several of them wandering around. There is a lot to write about because so much has been added since Build 13. :onya
 
A writer is exactly what we need. This whole section just needs to summarise all our work up until Patch 6.

About SuperDurnius' point, some images might actually make it more interesting, but I think they're more difficult to add than text.
That's not to say they can't be added anyway, though, provided someone knows how.
 
I'd say no images are needed. All we need is someone to write up the corrected text. No need for you to do it, SuperDurnius.
We all know you can do more advanced stuff than just writing text, so if you want to do something, that's what I'd be more interested in. :wp
Hopefully somebody else will be able to take on this project.
 
The best person for the job would be someone who has been around for a while, wants to be involved in the Build (even though they might not be able to code/model yet) and most importantly is motivated to do it :yes
 
Just in case... If someone will need some kind of logo or update of interface image... PM me...
 
Would need a big amount of figuring out how to get any pictures used at all, so I'd prefer to avoid that. But thanks anyway. :doff
