Bravo for the picture. Sounds really nice
okee dokee ... I tried by myself to change an intro screen for a mod I'm writing.
I'm half successfull and half unsucessful
My intro screen is ok and the rendering ( in .dds 5 ) is quite as I wished. But ... I still need the .nif file ( CIV4MainMenuBG.nif ) from Warlords ( 2.0.8 ) otherwise, no way to get the picture.
here it is :
It is not obvious because of the size of the picture but I still have some elements of the warlords .nif file such as the spares, the fire, the brightmoon, the grass, etc ...
I tried to import it in Blender ( both on Mac and PC via Parallels ) but maybe because the file is quite big, I can't. I mean after a while, Blender is stopping
( if i try with some other smaller .nif file, it's OK )
So I try to use some CIV4MainMenuBG.nif files I found around from guys who already changed their intro screen. But then, my game is quitting
Still need a clue ! thanks
