Hi,
I've recently tried to mod a race (Create a major race).. I've been successful in every variable when editing the .XML file.
I have one issue. I can choose a customized Thumbnail (when you select a race in the new game menu). However, the foreground (FG) and background (BG) icons stay the race I used as a reference in creating the customized race.
I've edited the FG and BG icons, but am left with a Terran dude.
My entry is:
<LeaderImageFG>Jellyfish_FG.png</LeaderImageFG>
<LeaderImageBG>Spaghetti_BG.png</LeaderImageBG>
The entry in context:
<LogoImage>RaceLogo64.png</LogoImage>
<LeaderThumbnail>Jellyfish_Small.png</LeaderThumbnail>
<LeaderImageFG>Jellyfish_FG.png</LeaderImageFG>
<LeaderImageBG>Spaghetti_BG.png</LeaderImageBG>

It is my understanding that this should input the glowing jellyfish like alien picture over the blue/glowing rock background... But it isn't. I have no Terran reference left in my .XML file.
