Hi guys,

I've recently download VASSAL, but I'm struggling to find the extra sprites etc for the new Tyranids, for example. I don't suppose anyone could link up the resources or something? It seems a pretty complex system to use, looks like I'll be wrestling with it for a while!

Much appreciated!

Have you tried Google?
Because I'm pretty sure we can't link you those resources without possibly getting Dakka in trouble.

Ahaaa, I see. If that's the case I'll set aside an hour later and have another search. I did check google previously but was only led to numerous dead ends.

There is a reason why there are so many dead ends.

This is a little story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody.
There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.
Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.
Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job.
Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it.
It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.

Not sure why this would get dakka into trouble:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=C4RE3CX0

That link has some computer artwork drawn by an independent artist of what some tyranids look like.

Neither discourse of, nor directing to is legally contentious. Hosting potentially IP infringing software could be, but that's not an issue that dakka has.


Here's a great example:

Marijuana is illegal in the U.S.

1. Discussing marijuana on the internet is not illegal.
2. Posting pictures or links to pictures of marijuana is not illegal.
3. Directing people to other websites to look at pictures of marijuana is not illegal.
4. Selling or advertising the sale of marijuana is illegal.

We're ok here.

Seeing as he has it, I'd edit it out now. Because to put it in line with your analogy, you just handed him a bag of it, or pointed to where the bag was hidden.

How do you use that file to add the sprites? Not quite sure what to do with it.

Also, do you happen to know if there was ever a Space Wolves sprite release for 5e? The current one is pretty close, but I'm noticing a lack of a few character models (Only has Ulrik, Ragnar and Logan) and for whatever reason, one of the GH units is labeled as a "Totem," which I've been using to show a Standard-bearer.

If anyone wants help with Vassal and it's usage I'm on most evenings, I'd be happy to take anyone through exactly how things work. I'm sure others wouldn't mind either, heck, someone taught me, I can't be a total ass and not pass the teachings on. Jut ask if you see me on, happy to help.

Hmm, I'm having trouble connecting to anything at all on Vassal tonight. Are there server problems that anybody's aware of?

Server might just be down for maintenance or something.
