How to Make and Replace Decals or Posters

File Systems Used in Game



  • Camo (TGA)
  • Decals (TGA)
  • Posters (TGA)
  • Flags (PNG)
  • Museum stands (PNG)

Software



First we will need editing software that can make files in .TGA format

I like to use Paint(net) you can get it here completely free and easy to use,

Important! Do not compress the pictures.

Note: More software could possibly do this job (must have .TGA format)

Finding the Game Files for Adding or Replacing Pictures



Now we find the files location, which would be here.

Common location

This is for when the game is on the same drive.
