Crew Management Background mod

Otto Heinzmeir · 03-01-09, 11:34 PM

Just a simple alternative to the stock crew management background. The textures used edited from stock SH3 files.

My pic host doesn't allow tga files so you need to convert the jpg image to tga format. I don't have an account yet at Filefront.

After converting the file to a tga. First backup or rename the stock file BackPap2.tga

Then add this file to the folder SH3\data\Menu\Data\

See screen shot for what it looks like in game. The jpg is available here and like I said need to be converted to tga format. http://img.villagephotos.com/imageview.aspx?i=24515024

What program do you use to convert the jpeg to tga?

A Very Super Market · 03-02-09, 10:37 AM

You could use irfanview or something...

Actually Microsoft Paint will do the job I think.

Looks good Otto!

Very Nice. Thanks.....

Irfanview will convert to tga format. Its a freeware program. I like to use it for thumbnails and slideshows. All you have to do is open the jpg file and then save as a tga(Truevison Targa) file.

I like the rustic look you gave it.

Gives it that antiquated feel.

Sailor Steve · 03-05-09, 04:18 PM

I was wrong about Paint. Converted mine with Paintshop Pro. Looks great!

Irfanview did the job for me.

Thanks!!

Otto, can't you just rename the file and upload it? So we can rename it back to .tga
just an idea
