Some may know this, and some may not.
I discovered this when I played the VERY old TS Ultima Mod.

If anyone here has played it, (I know ORCACommander/Bloodreign has) you probably noticed that Banshee, Orca Fighter, and Orca Bomber have different art/images, but same voxel name. So I created an aircraft, and gave it Image=ORCAB. When I turned on TS, I'd build the aircraft. As it rose, I got an IE.

Point is:It was reading the new art, and not Westwood's.
It wasn't the mod, because I took Ultima Mod's orcab.vxl and .hva and put it in my own mix. Still got the IE. But then I tested it on a different aircraft with no new image. (Nighthawk (EMP))

As a sidenote:I discovered this year agos.

image= references that art.ini file where it looks for the entry in [] that matches what comes after equals. if there is not entry for orcab in art.ini then you get errors and it dfoes not matter about the entry of the original art.ini since the the mods overrides it
