Removing king's bounty logo from main menu screen

[Arthandas]

How can I remove king's bounty logo from the main menu screen? It looks bad with my custom background.

[Keneth]

If it's not in any of the archives, it's in one of the tex#.dds files.

[Arthandas]

Well, it's not in textures.kfs or interface_textures.kfs. I found king's bounty logo in loc_data.kfs but it's not the one from the main screen...

[Keneth]

Good, now go and check the DDS files (you can open with photoshop) and report back if you don't find anything there either. :-P

[Arthandas]

I have found dds files in textures.kfs, data.kfs and sky.kfs and it's not there. Are you sure it's just a simple image file? The glow on the letters is animated so maybe it's a gif or animation of some kind?

[Keneth]

Hrm, if it's animated there's a chance that it's actually a video clip (bink video file) that's embedded in the interface. Check the interface files (UI) to see if there's a referrence, otherwise it might be hardcoded, in which case you're out of luck. I don't think there's any animated GIFs anywhere in the game...

How to open those UI files?

[Keneth]

UI files are just standard text files, I think.

[Arthandas]

Too much stuff in those files that I don't understand so I'll just have to live with that logo :/ Thanks for all your help mate:)

You need to remove two files from Video directory

"kb-startlogo_alpha.bik"
"kb-startlogo-add.bik" (those two i belive)

and modify the file

"Start_KBlogo_eng.png" from loc_data directory

My mage char it's a woman (armored princess import) and looks just like here so the background makes sense :)
