can you give a national wonder a splash screen?

[Ambug666]

I set its <WonderSplashImage> and <WonderSplashAnchor> but it isn't coming up.

Can it be done?

I may have a workaround. If you set the MaxGlobalInstances of the BuildingClass to a very high number it will treat it like a World Wonder and give the splash screen. If you don't touch the MaxPlayerInstances, then it is still 1 per player. Something like this:

		<Update>
			<Set MaxGlobalInstances="99"/>
			<Where TYPE="BUILDINGCLASS_HEROIC_EPIC"/>
		</Update>

Currently it is hardcoded into the game to allow splash screens only for world wonders so you'll most likely have to use ambug's workaround.

If you want to support multiple splashes screens for wonders (choosen at random) see http://www.picknmixmods.com/mods/2ddb65d1-deb8-4202-a28b-911f3da8aab8/mod.html and for an example for The Great Library see http://www.picknmixmods.com/mods/4069e529-0357-4195-8ddc-4db215cd477d/mod.html

Thanks! Your page is a treasure trove of useful information.

On another note, I'm wondering if it is possible to attach an already existing sound file to accompany new wonders (or national wonders in this case). There are dozens of quotes available in game, either from technologies or great works of writing we could use. They would appear twice in game, but I'm sure it would greatly enhance the quality of new wonders.

Has anyone tried it before or I should try to figure it out by myself?
