Title: Neighborhood Screen Images Post by: Ambular on 2008 September 27, 22:30:05 Ugh, the new AL Neighborhood Screen images are awful. Does anyone happen to know offhand where those pictures are stored and whether it would be possible to replace them with ones from earlier EP's?

Title: Re: Neighborhood Screen Images Post by: sloppyhousewife on 2008 September 28, 10:59:18 Yes, it's possible. I just tried to overwrite the AL images with BV images, and it works. I'm going to make all images "witches only" though.
The pictures can be found in ...\Program Files\EA Games\The Sims 2 Apartment Life\TSData\Res\UI\ui.package, the NH screen images have the instances (856DDBAC-00000000-499DB772-) C11FAAA1 to 7 (top left) and C11FBBB1 to 5 (bottom right). I've noticed another 12 images which can be found both in the AL and the BV folder (haven't checked other EPs), no idea if they are used. At least I don't remember seing them *shrugs*. Instances: ABBAA100/125/130/140/145/155/160/200/215/220/230/235. Edit: These are the NH images from OfB. I don't know, why they are in the AL and BV folders, too, but not in those of the other EPs.

I'll give you cookies if you upload your override package here. :) Title: Re: Neighborhood Screen Images Post by: Assmitten on 2008 September 29, 03:52:54 The witches one is pretty cool, but the breakdancers one?
