How to change Captains desk picture

Texas Red · 06-08-20, 01:46 PM

Hello y'all

Today, I decided to change the captain's desk photo, the one on the far right, closest to the sub-model where you can select upgrades. Problem is, I cannot find the file that has the captain's photo on it.

I was thinking about changing it to my great grandfather who served in the US Navy in WW2
Here is the picture:

These are the current mods I am running:

Generic Mod Enabler - v2.6.0.157
[C:\Games\Steam\steamapps\common\SH4FOTRSU\MODS]

100_FalloftheRisingSun_UltimateEdition_v1.1_EN
399c_NoScrollNavMap - Same Sized Dials
Fleetboat_Interior-Officers_Quarters_FOTRSU_v1.1_EN

Any help would be appreciated!

Happy Hunting!

The captain's desk picture is located in:

(silent hunter 4 root install location - where your .exe file is)/data/CaptainPicture. The file is named "Captain Picture.TGA."

The photo should be scaled to 512x626 pixels for best results

Here is my captain desk photo for example:

And do you know where I can find the far one on the right?

I was thinking about changing it as well. Do you know the pixel size as well?

Thanks for the help!

The one on the far right? you mean the one that leads to crew management?

I believe that that picture is stored in a texture file that contains other posters in the captains room. Can't remember its name off the top of my head though.

OK I think I'll just leave it the way it is, thanks!

Actually, the picture in ....\Data\CaptainPicture should be called Picture.tga
