In both campaigns the scenarios have pictures that pop up either at the start of the scenario or at a certain turn.

How do you do this in the editor??

Also I've been researching a 12-15 scenario campaign based on the Kharkov 42 battle. I got a couple of books from the internet and everything (lots of cool pictures and fun stories). It would be a shame that some of this history couldn't be included to add significance to each scenario.

So how do we add pictures and text other than that initial text generated at the scenario start up?

Thanks.

The whole picture/text thing is currently extremely inflexible and on the list to be completely redone so that anyone can modify it.

Oh wait, I do remember there is one thing that you can sort of hack together for now. Sorry, the events have been through so many iterations... anyway, on the scenario tab info menu, click on Events. A number greater than 100 for the Intro Event will bypass the whole event system (that is the thing I need to fix up). A number greater than 100 entered here will display the panels and text from Scripts.csv that matches it at the intro.

This will not work for the other events, intro only.

New panels graphics can't be added, you would have to just overwrite the existing ones unfortunately.
