A custom background

Hello aoe warriors,

I’m trying to create a custome background (mod) with a specific image. I tried different approaches but I make some mistakes.
First, I tried through the “local” folder in AoE. I created a .dds file from some website on the internet. I edited the info.json file. I “copied” everything that folders in “subscribed” have. It did not work…
Then I tried via the aoe mod page. I uploaded the same files. It did not work either.
There is a mistake but I am unable to identify it.
Anyone better in IT than me around? :slight_smile:
Thank you

Hey @GamerX, I ran into the same problem a few years back, and I found these steps that should accomplish what you are attempting to do:
Custom Background in AoE II DE – Don Dinardoni – Age of Empires II

The author of the article lays out what to do fairly well, so you should be able to follow it successfully to its conclusion.

Hope this helps!
