Syncing Galactopedia with Custom Mod Images

Post by Rookwood »

Hi,

I have been playing around with custom images for the races. This is very easy to do obviously, but when I try to get the Galactopedia to match I am not having any luck. I convert the image to Base64 and embed it in the MHTML file then rename them over in the Help folder of the mod, but the game doesn't like that. It reverts to the original unmodded race images for the Galactopedia.

It's really causing my OCD to itch. Anyone got a quick fix? [:'(]

I should add that my Base64 conversion seems to be very unconcatenated. My MHTML files come out to around 1MB.

Turns out you have to use Word to edit MHTML. [8D]

ABORT! ABORT!
