MOD for starting picture - osiris - 20.06.2008

Hi all,

Id like to modify the picture used when the game starts (to create a little mod for my virtual squadron). Is it possible to create a simple mod for that or just specify the file i have to change ?

Moreover i want to modify the background.tga (picture when the game is loaded) i saw his size is 512*512, i can change it, but only 512*512 works. Is it possible to change that and create a beautifull personal picture with 1024*1024 or better 1920*...

Thx a lot for your help Smile Smile

yup, .... 1024x1024 tga (24bit) is totally acceptable by game ( for larger i'm not sure ..)

mod structure for splash screen ( loading screen):

gameroot\MODS"nameofyourmod"\gui\

files:
background0.tga
background0.mat

hope that helps

But .... The picture of LOADING is different of the picture of the MENU GAME !!!

For the menu game its background = OK (thx)

But the LOADING PICTURE when you launch the game (before the menu) ???

loading picture before menu IS : background0.tga ... not background.tga ( located in missions folder)

this is mine , located in: MODS\mybackground\gui\
