Ignore menu_hover.jpg unless you're wanting to edit what the menu options look like when you're hovering over them. You'll need to be in the games Menu folder for this. This process should work exactly the same for the rest of the game's art. For this demonstration, I'll be editing the main menu CG. Perhaps the easiest thing to do with Sunrider is to modify the images the game displays. Now that you know what's going on, let's do some editing. Most of these won't come into play in this guide. rpyc Files - Stuff for RenPy, the engine the game is based on. Space - Art for the warping segments, as well as the picture of Cera and sprites of Legion from the start of First Arrival. Sound - Sound effects and generally everything audio-related that isn't under Music. Skirmish - Special stuff needed for the game's skirmish feature. Notepad equates the contents to garbage text, so I'd advise against messing with them. Menu - The main menu artwork, as well as things like the First Arrival intro text, Sunrider map, R&D menus and the Game Over screen. Also seemingly miscellaneous things such as the 'BATTLE STATIONS' text. Gameplay - All components of the combat animations. OP.avi, the game's intro, is in here as well.Ĭharacter - Character sprites. For me, the contents were just menu buttons, so it's probably for those.Ĭg - The special images from the scenes that aren't just backgrounds with sprites over them. As for the individual subfolders, here's a handy guide.īackground - The game's backgrounds (obviously).īattle UI - Icons and sprites for the game's battle map (not the attack animations themselves).Ĭache - I'm not entirely sure what this one is for.
It'd be a good idea to bookmark this folder you'll be using it for everything we cover here. Now, once you're there, go into the 'game' folder. If you have the game installed on a different drive to your main Steam install, you'll need to go there instead. For most people, this will be in your Steam directory under SteamApps\common\Sunrider.
Whatever you intend to modify, you'll need to know where to be.įirst off, you'll need to open Windows Explorer up and navigate to your Sunrider: Mask of Arcadius directory.
