Adding an image to the MCM menu

[Mystical Panda]

I apologize if this has been mentioned before, but is there a tutorial anywhere that shows how to add an image, like what Project Nevada does, to the MCM?

It is quite easy to do.

 

First you need a DDS file as image.

 

Then inside the event OnPageReset(string a_page), you have to load the image.

Be aware that when an image is displayed nothing else is displayed.

Usually it is done when the a_page==""

 

Something like:

 

Event OnPageReset(string a_page)
  if (a_page == "")
    LoadCustomContent("MyPicturedds", 10, 14)
    return
  endIf
  UnloadCustomContent()
 
  ...

 

The actual image has to be stored in "Interface\"

You can use sub-folders if you like.

 LoadCustomContent("MyModName\\MyPicturedds")

and place the image in "Interface\MyModName\"

Thanks CPU! Does this work for FNV? or just Skyrim? I was currently modding FNV. Sorry,  I wasn't clear on that when I first posted.

No idea, sorry.

You posted in Skyrim section.

 

I can only answer for Skyrim. Never modded FNV or FO3.

Sorry about that, I honestly wasn't paying attention to that when I posted. Thanks for you help though, I did manage to figure it out.
