How to add the Chaos Splashscreen to your ChaosUT2

Post by DJPaul2 »

If you haven't installed from the newest PR1.02 .ut2mod, then this is how you can add the funky-looking splashscreen to your existing Chaos UT2 installation.
  1. Download this image (warning, .BMP).
  2. Place this in your c:\UT2003\Help directory (change the patch to where you chose to install UT2003).
  3. Edit your ChaosUT2 shortcut, by right-clicking on it and selecting Properties; in the Target box, add the following to the end of the text already there: -UserLogo=CE_LoadScreen.bmp
  4. Click OK.
  5. All done!
Thanks to Jb for reminding me how to do this.

Loq the one that DJ posted is formatted. If you use the one you posted UT will crash. The one he linked is the one i made by taking yours and adjusting it to the right format :(

not really about the splashscreen , but why don't you guys have a startup logo to replace gorge bashing through the nvidia logo.

We just can't seem to get that Proxybot you submitted under the poly limit, so's that we can animate him and stuff.

Actualy i was putting quite a bit of though into just that, I get really tired of gorge grunting in my ear every time i start the game. I was thinking something more along the lines of the intro part of Unreal 2. I think i have even picked out some music for it allredy. ( have to run it by the rest of the team. )

ever hit a mouse button or ESC? Funny thing is, when you do that it skips right to the menu screen :roll:

(jumpy)
We need our own intro.

An own intro?`

Well, I would prefer the Skull rising out of fire and saying "Welcome to Chaos UT" in an evil metallic voice (like the old Turrican style, does anyone know this game? ;))...

if you want to get rid of the nvidia the way its ment to be played + intro screen with gorge coming through, try this

go to http://www.utstats.com/UT_2003_Downloads_Tools.htm
& downlaod the quick start map
extract the map file in archive to your maps directory
open ut2003.ini file
under [url] section where it says localmap=
change it to QuickStart.ut2
Save file
the next time you load up ut2003 you should go to the main menu directly

true, i hadn't though of that way to solve the problem, is there a chaotic dreams intro sequence that could be put in place of the nvidia one for example showing of some of the weapons from the mod
