Install all programs.

 

 

 

1) Using UTPT:

 

1.1) Open a L2font called Fiser UTX-e.utx (in SysTextures)

 

1.2) look after a loading screen and start screen textures

 

1.3) We extract the DDS.

 

1.4) I just finished UTPT, it shut.

 

 

2) Open Photoshop.

 

2.1) Open 1 of the texture.

 

2.2) Modify it as you wish.

 

2.3) Save it as a DDS.

 

2.4) I will defend DDS plugin.

 

2.5) Choose the option "MIPMAPS NO" (or something genu) and save the file.

 

 

 

NOTE: It is good to know:

 

When importing a DX3 with ALPHA channel, you must select "masked".

 

 

 

 

3) Open Edition Unreal Runtime

 

3.1) I see a window that appears ... Search and Texutres.

 

3.2) Create a new texture with:

 

3.2.1) Package name: THE NAME OF UR PACKAGE (myPackage)

 

3.2.2) Group name: The name of textures GROUP (myL2group)

 

3.2.3) Texture name: The name of a texture (myLoagindTex)

 

3.3) If the time between a window, you may close.

 

3.4) Now importing texture

 

3.4.1) Please select the DDS file

 

3.4.2) Texture name: rename the file something like DDS (myLoadingTexA)

 

3.5) Save

 

 

 

 

4) decrypt the 'Lineage II / System / Fontinfo.ini' (ttfontinfo.ini at C6)

 

4.1) Change the following columns:

 

4.1.1) English_LogoTexture = myPackage.myGroup.myLoadingTexA

 

4.1.2) English_LoadingTexture = L2Starts.L2Starts.myLoadingTexB

 

4.2) Save and Crytati again.

 

 

 

5) Make a backup to your Fontinfo.ini

 

6) Now replace the files created by you.
