View Full Version : Minor problem with changing a religion...

In a mod I'm working on, I've replaced Christianity with the Cult of Aten. (The whole scenario concludes before Christianity was founded.) Changing the name was easy, but I also wanted to get rid of the cross as the religion's symbol -- it kind of breaks the illusion. So I'm using the button artwork for incense as the new symbol for the Cult of Aten. I've replaced it on the Tech Tree and on the Religion Advisor interface, so far so good.

Here's my problem:

Although the cross doesn't show up at the top of the Religion Advisor screen, it still shows up next to the names of cities as the indicator that this religion (formerly Christianity, now the Cult of Aten) is practiced there.

Anyone know where the tag for that artwork is located?

Thanks in advance!

Yeah, its in the gamefont files. You will grow to hate them. Check out:

..\Assets\res\fonts\Gamefont.tga

and

..\Assets\res\fonts\Gamefont75.tga

New question:

I've examined the GameFonts tgafile that contains the game icons. Do I have to rebuild the entire tgafile to use it in my mod, or is there a way to paste one or two new icons into the existing one?
