How do I add art fprloading screen on startup and missions? - Mysticpuma - 13.01.2010

I have some artwork I'd like to use instead of the HSFX backdrop, and also when loading a mission. How do I change the artwork used, and what size does it need to be?

Cheers, MP.

pic properties :

background.tga

1024x1024 24bit tga (make normal 4:3 pic and resize without aspect ratio enabled )

=========================

install....

HSFX wise :

for loading splash screen :

...\ game root\Files\gui\background.tga

* should be also background0_ru.mat present

HSFX + AAA UI wise ( old mods system):


...\ game root\Mods\"whatever you like"\gui\background.tga

* should be also background0_ru.mat present ( just copy one from Files\gui\.. )

for all installations :

for main menu background :

...\game root\Missions\background.tga

* should be also background.mat present

for different nationality :

...\game root\Missions\Campaign\ "desired nationality"\background.tga

* should be also background.mat present

for different nationality- single missions :

...\game root\Missions\Single\ "desired nationality"\background.tga

* should be also background.mat present

This is very interesting information.
Thank you Fly-Zo.

BTW, would this method also work with the previous AAA mod-pack or Ultrapack 2.0 mod-pack?

for Ultrapack i wouldn't know and for old AAA ... sure :

Code:
SFX + AAA UI wise ( old mods system):

...\ game root\Mods"whatever you like"\gui\background.tga

* should be also background0_ru.mat present ( just copy one from Files\gui\.. )

AAA UI's have Splashscreen folder (MODS) so you can change pic there

GREAT news.
I still have the old Mod pack installed, and I want to created and install some hot-babes
with airplanes "art" for my sgame plashscreens. I know there are some already available, but my
idea/images will be different

Thank you :cheers:

AAA UI and HSFX compatible ...

Specially on the part of how to add a groovy pin-up girl on the cockpit :loveeyes:

Many many Thanks in return :cheers:
