New Vice City Multiplayer splash (loading) screen
« on: March 29, 2020, 05:50:40 PM »
Greetings all!

Each day, I have been getting exponentially frustrated with the visuals used to welcome us to the multiplayer modification that we all love and cherish so much, so I decided to spice it up a bit with something new and refreshing I quickly put together.

It is my opinion, and I am sure the opinion of many others that the completely out-of-place Barney pedobear and the horribly modded Ferrari from the last splash screen must leave!

So for whoever cares about detail as much as I do, I present to you old and new!


- Old -




- New -




Notes:

  • this is by no means an official replacement for the splash screen, but rather a 'from the players for the players' kind of thing
  • this is my first attempt at doing something like this
  • you will have to update the splash screen with every new release of VC-MP as per the instructions further down below
  • all native Vice City resolutions are included in the pack
  • the original splash screen was made on a widescreen (16:9, 1920x1080) resolution so at present time it will look much better for said widescreen solutions
  • the above is also the same reason the resolutions for the splash screen are limited to 1920x1080, as that is my current maximum resolution. if anyone has a larger resolution, let me know and I'll cook something up

How do I apply this splash screen?

  • You access your local appdata folder, which is usually C:\(your username)\AppData\local\
  • You find the "Vice City Multiplayer" folder in there
  • You find the folder with the current VC-MP release in there (being 04rel006 at present time)
  • You find the "images" folder in there
  • You rename whatever splash screen picture you downloaded (as per your resolution) to "splash.png" and replace it with the existing "splash.png"

Splash screen pack (with resolutions for each written below the corresponding image):
