Missing Graphic for Shrine of Mithrilar

Another minor bug.  It missing the graphic on the screen that pops up when you build it.  The Galactic Wonder screen or something like that.  Is this the right place for such things???

That's one of these extremely simple & easy things to fix by SD own installer when we upgrade our games; it is a typo in the expected png file... wrongly named ShrineOfTheMithralar when it should in fact be ShrineOfTheMithrIlar.

 

Rename the file & create a copy of it for later use (since i have been asking whomever compiles final versions for distribution to make the switch and within the last 10 months nobody did!)

Sorry it's taken me so long to reply.  Thanks for the help.  I'm still not exactly clear what I need to change though.  Sorry, it's probably obvious and I'm just missing it.  Which file should I rename?  If you could post the path that would really help. Thanks!

 

Oh, and if that's ll it takes, why no patch?  Sounds like an easy, quick fix that someone could throw together and post to Impulse pretty fast.  Is it that with all the other projects going on you guys have been told to leave GALCIV2 alone for a while.  I could understand that if that's the case.  Just curious....

X:\(your installation Drive game path)\Twilight\GFX\Improvements\query... the file is there; i simply made a quick copy of the old and renamed the new one. Both are still there, AFAIC. SymbiosisPlatform--S has a similar issue, btw.

Like i said earlier, SD default installer keeps feeding us with the incorrect file - as long as yours is there, they can't overwrite it.

Even worst, the 'CivEventWnd.dxpack' screen is another bad issue since the self-installing file doesn't have the bottom row of shortcut Icons for parsing... the REAL thing is 109,087Kbs and was saved at 16:42 on 09/26/07 while the other but flawed file was made on that morning too.

Thus, every time i must upgrade through Impulse... they simply copy over with the bad version. I do have a backup folder for such stuff until they finally realize something's wrong (I told them twice & over since, and gave up).
