+ | ===== Walkthroughs ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | There are two ways to implement your own logos. The most straight forward way is to edit the core game files. Do not do this if you plan to distribute your changes. Any updates to the game will erase your changes. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The other way is through the mod file system. This is a little more work, but it allows you to easily share the files and it won't be erased with any updates to the game. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Editing Core Files ==== | ||
+ | //Only edit core game files if you **do not** intend to distribute them. Updates to the game may erase any changes to these files, and errors may cause the game to not work. If you break your install, please verify your game cache, or reinstall the files (remember to back up before editing), or reinstall the game. // | ||
