Like the EVO mod

Hey all,

I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to edit FL so that when the "loading" bar pops up it says the name of your mod instead of "loading" (like the EVO mod). Also, is it possible for me to change the background system in FL (when your at the main menu. I know how to change the splash screen and logo, but am I able to change that pic (or whatever it is) thats animating behind the menus? TIA!

thn editing for the menu background, and for the loading message....its in the resources.dll i think it was, around 174 or 120 or something - Use FLEDS and then type in to search for 'Loading' as instructed in the FLEDS tutorial on finding ids numbers

You'll have to add "DLL = Resources.dll" to your resources section in your freelancer.ini
When you search for "loading" it's the first ids name # that pops up.

i used reshack to find it for my mod; change the text, click 'compile script' button and save it. reshack has a find menu option which eases the way nicely
