Question about UI Modding...

Post by Blackstork »

Hello,
Where one can find Graphic UI objects (scroll bars, backgrounds, window frames etc). I failing to find their art files ... Are they some kind of code? Is there any way to customise them?
I want to create race-specific, stand-alone packages for basic Graphic UI skeleton.

I fear this may not be possible. I tried to od the UI since Legends but could not find the images you requested. At least, the icons are moddable now which is very much appreciated! I did find a file where those images might be included, but I lack the knowledge and willingness to hack the game.

Well, ... I hope ability to mod basic UI interface will be added in the future... I were thinking about making race-specific HUD designs...
It was well implemented in Civ IV, and this could be an improvement here....
