New face of Faction Icon
Hi, for this tutorial you need Photoshop CS2 and we going to see how change old faction to new.
In the end of this tut we have something like this
(Naturally unpack all files)
(screen si taken from one mod)
(I change Milan faction symbol), for begin you can use this symbol what i find on net.
Campaign Map
(must edit in vannila folder NOT in MYMOD)
Open stratpage_02.tga in
SEGA\Medieval II Total War\data\ui\southern_european\interface\stratpage_02.tga
Open file and put there your own symbol.
Take black brush and paint background behind your symbol.
After that hold ctrl button and click with left mouse on layer with your symbol. You select it.
After that click on Channels. And turn off all layers and turn on layer with ALFA1
Take white collor and paint your symbol there where you have your selections.
If you paint it on white you must delete old white symbol so take black brush and push CTRL+SHIFT I and paint old white symbol on black.
If you have like on screen turn on all channels except ALFA1 that turn off.
Give it all to 1 layer and save and that is.
Menu
It is same like on campaing map but you must open and edit these files.
(if you using mymod folder you can edit these files in your MYMOD folder.)
all files what you find here.
data\menu\symbols\fe_buttons_24
data\menu\symbols\\fe_buttons_48
IMPORTANT. !!!
You must edit your medieval2.preference.cfg or you own cfg file with this
[io]
file_first = 1
or
[io]
file_first = true
I hope you understand what you must do, because my english is sux, so sorry.
