Empire AT War Splash Screen problem

[jedi_consulor]

I am trying to change my Empire AT War Splash screen but with no success. I have added my own custom SPLASH.dds file to my Textures folder - but my game isn't reading the new splash screen. I had a look through some XML file's but can't find what I should edit if anything at all. It just doesn't use my own Splash screen  :

 

Any idea's why not ?

Uh, is there a splash tga? It MIGHT read that...doubt it...

 

If you put Splash.dds in /Data/Art/textures, it'll work.

 

Did you put it in Texture, or Textures? I once had this annoyint glitch because I named the folder wrong. It needs to be textures.

I found why it wasn't showing  : turned out that my localization is SPLASH_UK not 'SPLASH' LOL I renamed it to SPLASH_UK.dds - and it works now 

 

What the heck - I'll show you what I was doing too  - its a splash screen for my personal mod that I have very nearly finished.

Nice

 

Shouldn't it be, "Loading, please wait", not "Loading Please Wait"?

Thought I'd be different

That splash is nice... you made it personally?

[jedi_consulor]

yes its for my personal mod 

 

I was asked if I would be able to release this because of the lack of new mods on the community, but I can't - its a personal mod.

 

1) Its 1gig in size I'd have to send it people on Cd or archive it up into different bits.

2) I'd need a lot of permission over copyright ownership over the models I used in the game

I'd edit the GameConstants.xml so that all the Splashes are called as Splash.dds

Theres an idea  - good thinking
