Boot Screens?

FreightTrain's Photo FreightTrain Oct 13 2011

Can you edit the boot screens? You know where you put your login info.

I'm there, but what I'm asking is how do you edit them?..where to put them ..make your own etc.

You can not edit these; they are pre-made for you.

I do not know how to make them.

You download the desired file, extract, then install into C:\Games\World_of_Tanks\res\gui\flash. Make sure you back-up the originals, so you can restore to original, if desired.

login_bg2 found in the WOT folder > res > gui > flash > Once you have found that image you can replace it or modify it. I use the free program paint.net (google it), it allows basic edits to .DDS files (tanks skins, login screen etc).

Well when I did make my own  the back ground was all black. :( But I can download other login_bg2's and they work :(

This is what I do.

1: Open "login_bg.tga" with Photoshop.

2: Replace with a new picture or whatever your using.

3: Save! ..  or if you want to switch out boot screens, make a new folder on your desktop called WOTBootScreens or something but rename it with TEST_ or whatever.

Make sure that when you save the tga file there is no file compression.
The WoT program seems to be quirky when it comes to the actual format within a file.


I've made a very simple and clean screen for VPG:

Very nice screens there, yua and FreightTrain.  :Smile_honoring:
