Loading Screen Question...

[ReallyDedPoet]

Hi folks,

How do you resize ( smaller ) or move the below circled image to another location of the loading screen?
I have a new loading screen I want to add, but the current loading graphics are in the way, namely the one below. I have played
around with it a bit but no luck yet.

Thanks.

I'm pretty sure the load screen make-up can be found in the "menu_1024_768.ini" file.

Thanks. I had looked in .cfg files

I did it another way. I cut the above out and pasted it onto my new loading screen. Worked fine and looks ok

Good, I was going to suggest you try something else.

I searched through the "menu_1024_768.ini" file and found nothing!!
If the image in question....."Intro_logo_elem.dds" was going to be used through the menu_1024_768.ini file, it would have been found under the line.....Mat 0=data/menu/loading/Intro_logo_elem.dds

No such line in the file.

So, the "menu_1024..." file doesn't make up the game's load screen. I'm surprised it doesn't, but it looks like you found a way around it anyway.

Thanks CS.

Yes, I looked at the menu file and did not see anything, and as you did I thought that would be it. I found a workaround for now, but would like to find out where that loading make-up is as far as positioning, etc. I just did some cutting and pasting and file conversions. The UBI Logo shows up in the bottom right corner in the below, the loading bar in the bottom middle. She's a beauty

I found the pic on the internet, Treveller used it for one of his mods as well.

Paint.Net is a great little program. I have a few others as well.

Well......Hellllllooo Sailor!!

There are some great retro posters on the internet. Just need to be resized and converted to .dds files. Yeah, she is quite a sight : )

I swear that gall is in one of Travellers loading screens for his mod.

Yes it is. I also found it on the internet. That is the one I modded. It is not something I have released, just for personal use.

Be a nice effect for sure.

TMO has that, took a porpoise to 600ft just to see what would happen. Crunched at something over 500ft.

Funny. I just get the standard valve popping open whoosh of steam.
