theLeeHarvey Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 I have changed my New Vegas main menu background to a screenshot I took and then 'shopped to make it fit aesthetically with the game. Have you modded your main background? I am interested in seeing creative work by other members here. Call it curiosity. If so, post a shot of it here. If not, I can tell you how, it's very easy. First you will need to download Paint.net if you haven't already got it. Find it here, install it and then return to this thread when you are ready to begin....... Ok ready? Open up the image you want to use for your main background. It can be pretty much any picture you want, but note that it should be similar dimensions to your resolution or it will be stretched and distorted when you load up your game and see it. Ok, so you have the pic you want to use open in Paint.net right? Here's what you do. Click the file tab in the upper left corner. Click 'Save As'. Navigate to your Data/textures/interface/main folder and save the picture as main_background.dds. See how easy that was? Now all you have to do is remember to update your archiveinvalidation text in whatever form you prefer. When you start New Vegas you will have a nifty new main menu background. Oh and don't forget to take a screenshot of it and post it here. :thumbsup: http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr346/theLeeHarvey/New%20Vegas%20images/mainbackground.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
