If this mod ever actually gets an update

[Sawslig Steve. And William.]

I've been fiddling about in GUILayout recently and have started to get the hang of things in that asshole (it really is an asshole).

So, I was fondling that perhaps we could have a unique custom main menu and title screen for Tel (perhaps oceanic themed for OT).

With my fiddling today, I managed to get this: i.imgur.com/57tuYWP.jpg (ignore the text)

Obviously, if this actually becomes a thing, it would be much higher quality. If Byam would be willing to create some snazzy menu art and we could have an agreement on the general layout, this could be really cool. No mod currently has anything like it so it could sort of set Tel apart from the rest. Give it some flare. Some spackle. A real "this is Tellurian, motherfuckers" statement.

[WELCOME BACK, DOKKYPOO!]

I've always liked that art. But what problems does it have?

Woah that would be sweeet. I didn't even know you could change the main menu background with a mod. oO

[Sawslig Steve. And William.]

Yeah, you can, but... You can't.

Now what exactly is that supposed to mean? xD

[Sawslig Steve. And William.]

A lot of complicated bullshit.

Basically, the problem is with the text. When you add text to the menu items, it tries to read strings from a file that doesn't exist. Or, well, it does exist, but you have to make it, so it lacks all the necessary information and the text just shows up as text string numbers like $50096 or whatever.

Or...something like that. xd I don't even quite remember. Will and I killed ourselves trying to fix it one night.

Damn okay that really does sound like a problem. :/ ... and well I don't have that much of a clue about modding IC so I wouldn't know if there is any way to fix it ... But I guess you have already tried to just modify the files needed, instead of creating entirely new ones right? Sorry it'll probably not help (or not be possible) - it was just a quick guess. :/

[Sawslig Steve. And William.]

The needed file doesn't exist anywhere so you have to create it. Which is kind of a problem lol
