:arrow_forward: GAME INFORMATION

:point_down: These details are CRITICAL; DO NOT skip them or your issue may not be reviewed.

  • GAME BUILD #: 85208
  • GAME PLATFORM: Steam
  • OPERATING SYSTEM: Windows 10

:arrow_forward: ISSUE EXPERIENCED

:point_down: DESCRIBE THE ISSUE IN DETAIL (below). LIMIT TO ONE BUG PER THREAD.
When changing Aoe2’s menu background via a mod, the Return of Rome background is also changed to this new background. This does not happen in the current stable build of the game, only the preview.

:arrow_forward: FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

Always

:arrow_forward: REPRODUCTION STEPS

  1. Download a menu background mod (I used Anniversary2021 - Main Menu)
  2. restart the game
  3. Notice how RoR and AoE2DE now use the same background

:arrow_forward: EXPECTED RESULT

:point_down: What was SUPPOSED to happen if the bug you encountered were not present?
AoE2’s background is changed, but AoE1’s menu background is a seperate thing (possibly could be changed seperately?)

:arrow_forward: IMAGE

:point_down: ALWAYS attach a PICTURE (.jpg, .png, .gif) or VIDEO (.mp4, YouTube link) that highlights the problem.

Do you have this issue with every background mod? And after the hotfix?
Thanks for the report :slight_smile:

Yes to both of those: On the hotfix build (which is, incidentally, also #85208) this issue occurs, and I’ve been able to replicate the bug with several of the official background menus.

I confirm that it’s stll in the game (90260). I also confirm that the bug didn’t exist only in the RoR launch build, as the original poster indicates:

This issue is already being tracked by the team.
