==== As a Mod File ==== | ==== As a Mod File ==== |
| Editing the Player Logo List as a mod file is a little more involved, however it does allow you to distribute the resulting files and protects you from having your work overwritten by a game update. |
| |
| If you wish to use the default //PlayerLogos.xml// as a base, the directions for opening, adding, and removing logos is the same as [[ModTools:playerlogoeditor#editingcorefiles|Editing Core Files]]. If you wish to open a PlayerLogos.xml from an existing mod, you would follow the same directions for in [[ModTools:playerlogoeditor#editingcorefiles|Editing Core Files]] for opening, adding, and removing, except you would open the //mod_MODNAME_PlayerLogos.xml// from the ///media/mods/MODNAME/// folder. |
| |
| If you wish to create a //PlayerLogos.xml// file from scratch, you would just create it. |
