Is it pssible to customize the initial title screen? - Dietz - 17.10.2008

Just wondering...over the years I've cutomized almost all the interior screens to use some of my paintings( see below)...but doing the initial title screen has never been an option...Now it might be.Does anyone know how to do this & if so is it easy or do I need to approach one of you pro modders ?

Must be possible as the add-on "The Last Days" introduces a new loading screen.

A long time ago Wiley of Wiley's Gun Camera site had a few ready to go...I can find out if they are still available. What I wanted to do is use one with all the correct nominclature...not just my painting.Fly Zu - still trying to fugure out what AAA UI is or where to download same....

If you aren'y using the UI, its in IL2 Sturmovik 1946/files/gui..
or at least it is in my install.

Shame you couldn't post some of these for a Desktop Version say 1680X1050......Please

---

I could do that...I think....


I use photobucket...but never tried to post something that others could pick-up...also at this size I'd be a bit worried about image being used without permission commercially...

James Dietz.

I've tried unsuccessfully to convert some of your pics(JPGs) into 1024X768 TGA files. Everything looks okay file size and format wise, but for some inexplicable reason I cannot get them to work as Splash Screens. I don't know why.

If you solve the problem, please let me know as I'd like to use "To the Victor" as my Splash Screen.

I used Photoshop to resize the tothevictor.jpg to 1024x666 dimensions (ticked the constrain proportions box) and saved as a 32 bit NON RLE compressed tga file. If you use RLE Compression the splash screen will be black.

This tga is saved in ...il2root\MODS\SplashScreen\GUI folder as Background.tga

Did the same exercise in Gimp and all worked well.

Hope this helps

PS. bloody nice work JD :wink:

I get a antivirus warning for:

HTML/Infected.WebPage.Gen (7.04.01.62)

when I open the page http://www.jamesdietz.com/gallery/merch ... =15&step=2

Much probably its just a bad java programming, but you better should make it sure.



Great paintings anyway!!!
