Default Add your Captain Image

If it can be useful then I propose again my version of the "TWOS restore captain's icon by Torpedo" mod which restores exclusively the captain's original icon with the same graphics as the crew icons. I had made and published this mod already in 2016 because, I don't know the reason yet, but with TWoS the captain's icon becomes blind (the alpha channel of the image with Paint.net is = 0 therefore perfectly transparent) even if with Photoshop the image is perfect. Maybe it may depend on my graphics card NVidia GTX970 (always updated). Other users may have still the same problem and this small mod, that can be activated at any time, could solve the problem.

Now! go one further, and add your own captain image!!!

Unzip this thing, copy anyone of those folders, for instance --> ../TWOS restore captain's icon 6 by JCWolf
Drill down into the folder ../Crew. There, edit or replace the captain.dds file with anyone of your images. I replaced the captain.dds image with Otto Kretschmer
