Qhuenta

Thanks for the reply Pidesco. I already ordered this edition, but this is sad news for me. I'd rather have my games on just Steam or GOG, or better yet with an actual disc not tied exclusively to on platform. (Hey, we can dream.) Microsoft is a company too big for it's own boots. I know wherever I buy an Obsidian game they profit, but as I don't use their platform at all, this galls me. I'm asking myself if I should just keep this map on my wall and the beautifully illustrated game box on my shelf and not bother becoming part of another platform with a subscription model I despise.

Ah, I found it on Amazon. Just search for this: Avowed – Premium Edition SteelBook – Xbox Series X|S and Windows Digital Code It seems the map is a physical printed map. I have another question though. It says there's a code for Windows. Do I need Gamepass to play, or can I stick to my Steam account?

You can order from Amazon. It seems the map is a physical object. On Amazon, just search for this: Avowed – Premium Edition SteelBook – Xbox Series X|S and Windows Digital Code

There is a physical edition available for pre-order now. I want to buy the physical edition too. It says it comes with a map. Is that a physical object or just a digital file? https://www.obsidian.net/news/obsidian/avowed-pre-order

I did make and publish a mod that replaces the title screen with plain beautiful black, not to everyone's taste's perhaps, but for me I like the simplicity. The mod also renders invisible the Versus Evil startup logo and hides the news tab of the title screen. Thanks again @Kvellen for the helpful information. Here's a link to the mod if anyone wants it: Deadfire - No Logo - No News - Blank Background https://www.nexusmods.com/pillarsofeternity2/mods/724

Hey, does anyone know if Kaz has an Art Station page or any other place where you can see his portfolio? Also, did he by any chance paint the background image for PoE when you have the White March DLC installed?

Does anyone know which artist made this image. I love it so much more than Deadfire's main menu background. I wonder if they were done by the same person.

@Kvellen I think I found said files or references to them. One of those files is named "MainMenu_BG_Far-sharedassets1.assets-24.png" and I extracted it from this asset file: "...Pillars of Eternity II\PillarsOfEternityII_Data\sharedassets4.assets". Thanks for your help.

@Kvellen Thanks for the instant response! I figured it might be as you said. I remember wanting to edit the UI of PoE 1 and finding it very difficult to locate those elements. I did make and publish a mod that replaced the intro movies of that game with nothing but black. I might try and do the same thing here with that title screen. From the image you shared though, it looks like you unpacked the right asset. If you remember which asset file it was please share that info with me.

Hey Kvellen, thanks for theses instructions! I have another question for you. Do you know how to replace the title screen of the game?

Thanks for the late post! You have saved my eyes and my sanity, with your little edit. A title screen is the first thing I see when I sit down to play a game. Ideally that screen should lead you into the game excited, delighted or otherwise ready to enjoy yourself. The last thing I want to see when starting any game is news or advertising, even from studios I love about products they make. The less stuff competing for my visual attention the better. You've taken that bitter taste that was in my mouth away my sour mood is easing.

After successfully modding Pillars of eternity to skip some graphics when loading and then installing 2 mods that moddify the UI, I took it upon myself to make a mod that will change the wooden texture and size of the box that pops up when the player engages anyone in conversation. I have spent hours digging through the game folder and exploring the assets but I can't seem to find the files or the data related to what I want to do. Any leads?
