Now the pics that tywiggins found will probably work.And how was I supposed to know that a link that says "Last year sometime" is an explanation of why this won't work? Maybe next time be a little more in depth about any link you post. And that one ends with you saying that you think this has to be the correct pic, and file.....

Mav3rek Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Well that makes sense then. The actual picture file has to be 52bd b/c the only time I've ever seen that pic is when the game loads. One thing I did notice is that the pic doesn't have the MVP2005 logo on it. So when the game is executed it must call up the pic file and then the MVP logo as well. Any ideas as to where the logo file is? I haven't looked throught the files yet, but just thought I would throw it out there.

snepp Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 i didn't think this was anybodies job. I think it is a safe bet to say we all have lives and "jobs we get payed for" outside of this.

snepp Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 am i wrong? Yes, you are. Did you read anything that myself or Y4L had to say on the subjects of... "Telling the mods how to do their job." (job <> getting paid for it) or "Hijacking a thread." Do not reply to this. If you have a complaint, use the Contact module to submit one.

Mav3rek Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 well, I did manage to replace the file in my bkgrnd.big file, and when I open the bkgrnd.big file w/eagraph it does show the pic that I changed it to, but the game still loads w/the old one. i'm at work now, but will do more research when I get home. sent from rt506's cell Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/21858-new-screen-that-opens-up-game/page/2/#findComment-269810 Share on other sites More sharing options...
krawhitham Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 TY is right people, it is on disc 2 disc 2 contains a 16 color file and a 256 color file make a mini disc image then hex edit it so it contains a different image Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/21858-new-screen-that-opens-up-game/page/2/#findComment-269819 Share on other sites More sharing options...

krawhitham Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 It works, I had to make an ISO mini image, an alcohol 120% (mds/mdf) will not work, it scrambles the BMP a little Example: sucks because an alcohol 120% mini image is 2.5 MB while a ISO mini disc is 24 MB anyway here is the screen my game starts with now, with the edited ISO mini image Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/21858-new-screen-that-opens-up-game/page/2/#findComment-269862 Share on other sites More sharing options...

krawhitham Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 I thought about it a long time ago, problem is it could be considered a no-cd crack. What do you guys think is it legal?

snepp Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 I thought about it a long time ago, problem is it could be considered a no-cd crack. What do you guys think is it legal? Technically? No. Realistically, unlikely that anyone would give a rat's ***. (couldn't comment on Trues' site related concerns) Take all comments with large grain of salt, a family reunion of sorts (large quantities of alcohol) were involved.
