Custom Login

Creating a Custom Login/Loading Screen

Needed:

  • Image creator (or image)
  • Perl
  • Leo's texture_converter tool
  1. Create an image file of any major type (jpg, bmp, png, dds). The image MUST be 1024 pixels by 1024 pixels, but only 1024 by 768 is displayed.
  2. Save image in the texture_converter\texture_sources\GUI\CREATION\HybridUI\LoginScreen named "COH_LogInScreen_Background.png" (or whatever file type)
  3. Create/modify the textinfo.txt file to have the following line: COH_LogInScreen_Background.png -rbg -nomips 1024x768
  4. Run the texture_converter.pl script
  5. If you get an error similar to "sleep(2147450879) too large at texture_converter.pl line 13." that's okay.
  6. Browser to texture_converter\texture_library\GUI\CREATION\HybridUI\LoginScreen and your COH_LogInScreen_Background.texture" file should be there
  7. Create the library tree in your client executable folder \data\texture_library\GUI\CREATION\HybridUI\LoginScreen\ and paste the texture file there.
  8. Launch your client to see your screen!
