<div class="IPBDescription">final revision</div> features <i><span style='color:gray'>alien</span></i> themed resource/energy bars, hiveinfo sprite (with optional <i>queen</i> sprite replacement), combat experience bars, and alien upgrade menu. the resource bar has been reworked (fixed blue palette issues) since the last release, so please update any existing sprites accordingly.
i recommend using this pack in conjunction with <b>necrosis</b>' <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=50836&st=75' target='_blank'>aliens v_model pack</a>, and <b>marr</b>'s <a href='http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/daoctotalsound/ALIENS_Sound.zip?download' target='_blank'>aliens sound replacement pack</a>.

One thing that bothers me is the symmetrical look of the rine XP bar.
...with the exception of the queen hiveinfo sprite, which was created by Mercatorn, and the small tahoma font, done by Droggog.
@waffles: i'd like to do that eventually; finding time is the main problem.
But I have to agree with Obst is the symmetric look of the rin XP Bar. But that's easy to fix (at least for me it is <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->)
EDIT : I take back what I said. I forgot that NS handles sprites a little more differently....
And of course, I need to get permission from l0tus to release. After all, no permission == no release.
Also keep in mind that I haven't been in the spriting business for about 2 years so....in case I release this and there are any bugs, sue me <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Anyway...onto the modified marine XP bar....
Keep in mind that I has to flip back the exp bars inside the bar (irony!) because it didn't look too good when I just flipped it over....
And this one has a few improvisions. I really have to say that l0tus does do fine work with his sprites. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
EDIT : I would start my own thread...but uh...I don't know. I have this feeling that making a new thread would not be too good....
Which sprite would I use just for the alien popup menu? The rest of it looks nice but I try to keep as much stuff default as possible, but that popup menu is just too sexy.
now we can have the whole pack in one sexy file <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
