Cold Waters Loading Screen Mod

Cdr.Unterhosen · 04-23-22, 10:30 AM

Hello
Just recently discovered CW and have so far enjoyed both vanilla as well as mod versions. I have begun to build my own 'supermod' by combining the best IMHO options of each, as well as working on some new graphic elements.

What I can't find is information on customizing the loading screen, as the other unmentionable mods have done.

Can anyone out there point me as to where these files are or info about them?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the warm welcome, Cap'ns...

Please note I'm a total noob, both to the game and modding, but as retired graphic pro, I JUST COULD NOT STAND how my monitor (21:9 aspect) would interpret the range rings of a certain Mod... so a little poking around and a few PNGs later I am HOOKED. I'm not a programmer, so I've got a lot of learning to do, and my focus is for now on just layout/splash screens, but I still don't know how/where files are to replace them.

I wrote the loading screen for DotMod, it's a bit of custom code from there. But if you want to change the files it looks in the folder StreamingAssets/<subfolder>/campaign/images/loadscreens for backgrounds and StreamingAssetsPath/<subfolder>/language_xx/hints.txt for text
