Editing the mainmenu backround images.

Post by Fleabag77 »

I've checked the bitmap tags, but I can't seem to find anything that looks like a backround. For those that don't understand, I mean the backrounds of the controller/profile screen and the pregame lobby.

What do you mean by "background images"? What you see behind the main menu is a BSP, if that's what you mean. If you're talking about the Halo 2 title, then I don't know.

In that backround, he's got an elite in some sort of hallway.

That one is Backwash. (?)


I don't think both those pictures are a result of a swapped BSP, are they?

It's just normal skinning, find the relevant bitmaps and edit...

If I knew where those tags where, I wouldn't have made this topic. :?


EDIT: Oops, ended up editing my main post.

I never really skin, but I think if you want to skin on most maps go into the bitmaps tag, and a lot of what you'll want to skin the map with will be under scenarios/.../... in bitmaps

Yeah, there's a few tags that sound like they would fit, but the actual image looks nothing like it. For example, ui\screens\game_shell\4way_multiplayer_signin\controller_signin.

Ooh, alright. I'll take a look at the obvious tags then. Thanks for your help!
