yeh ilum is the transparent thingy around the flag, i guess it would make sense for the flag to be in gostek. ask some one who knows polish to translate the name for us.

eyic - you cannot change the look of the flag. It's not a BMP, its a single polygon.
Well, you can change the flag post tho ^_^
But not the actual red (or blue, whiote, grey, yellow...) part.

The following is a guess at what I think is what:

Polygon info - C:\Soldat\Objects\flag.po
Flag post graphic - C:\Soldat\Objects-gfx\flag.bmp
er... no idea... lol - C:\Soldat\Objects-gfx\flag-2.bmp
Flag texture - C:\Soldat\Textures\Objects\flag.bmp
Inf Flag Texture - C:\Soldat\Textures\Objects\infflag.bmp
Stolen Flag (score box) pic - C:\Soldat\Interface-gfx\noflag.bmp

He must be using poa, since it's not a gfx file.
Anyhow, are you sure the thing the guy is jumping over is a flag?

it is a flag-said so in the post. ive tryed to alter the poa, but it just makes it bigger so you cant pick it up..youve got to alter something in the textures flag files. Lime doesnt work though...

I did some experimenting.. and discoverd. the poa file determins were on flag stick thingie the flag is attached, how big it is, what way its should "Blow", if U can change the size of the sides U can Also alter the Form. + U can edit the texture C:\Soldat\Textures\Objects\flag.bmp But U dun got no transparent coloure as far as i found....

Yeah NuZZ did a lot of playing around with the poa editor a while back.

NOTE: you cannot play multiplayer with modified poa files.
