[WIP]GUI-Eyecandy for Ops Monsun/U-Boat Campaign

[Te Kaha]

Currently I am working to replace all the US pictures (Pearl Harbor, the fleet boats etc etc) in the menus with German ones. So far I have pictures for the Career Start (Base.dds), the Museum (MuseumScreen01.dds), and for Missions/Patrols (LoadingScreen_01.dds to _15.dds).

Came across a problem with the Data/Menu/Skins/German/Gui/Campaigns pictures - that's the one named after years (i.e. 1939.dds, 1940.dds etc.) - no matter how much pictures I place in this folder, Ops Monsun always only uses one single picture (1943.dds)...

When I fire up my FOTRS install, whenever you chose a specific year for the campaign start, the proper picture is displayed - it works there.

Which file needs to be edited (cfg, txt or whatever) to accomplish this, in other words, where do I need to look?

I'm pretty sure it's \Data\UPCDataGE\UPCCampaignData\CareerStart.upc

For example:

[CareerStart 1]
ID= Far East
NameDisplayable= Into the East (1943)
StartTimeInterval=1943-06-01, 1943-06-31
BackgroundPic= 1943.tga <------Change this and it should work
CareerStartBriefingText=The war has just started, and we're being beaten.
RenownOptions= 2500, 7500

I'm looking forward to your mod. I started doing something similar earlier but I never finished it. Are you planning on changing the background video too?

[Te Kaha]

Yes that's where it is.

But since this file is part of Ops Monsun and I got explicitly no permission to edit this specific file, I have to terminate this little project.

And am looking forward to the next OMEGU version .

Check your PM, I think I have a solution to the problem at hand
