This is extremely late, but the creator made a small mistake when giving the sizes for images creating the line everyone sees in the middle. You fix it by resizing all the top right images as 896 x 1024. Then by resizing all the bottom right images by 896 x 55. The one number off of 895 x 55, and 895 x 1024 caused the simple line problem. Hope that helps anyone new, or past.

There is a line between each image. Can it be erased?

i am having a insane amount of problems with mod.info file trying to rewrite whats inside that file with txt and it just creates a new txt mod file instead of changing what is written in the mod.info file

I'm not sure what I am doing wrong but I followed the youtube video, all of my files are png, named correctly, resolutions are correct but mine just will not work. I have spent around 4 hours today trying to get this to work with my design and with no luck.

If needed I've found this that is a lot more easy to be used to pack/unpack stuffs:

For anyone wants to change the logo and music theme :

#Logo
The Project Zomboid logo on the main menu as in build 41 is located in UI.pack from texturepacks folder. You can unpack it then edit the texture then re-pack it using tool from here https://theindiestone.com/forums/index.php?/topic/3511-pz-unpacker/

you can put the UI.pack in the mod.


#music theme
If you want to change the theme you can use tool from here to extract .bank files the rebuild
https://www.nexusmods.com/rugbyleaguelive3/mods/2?tab=docs

the file you need to change is "mx_menu_the_zombie_threat_mutation_ii.wav" (you can access that file after you extract the ZomboidMusic.bank using tool above) in ZomboidMusic.bank from "ProjectZomboid\media\sound\banks\Desktop"

the ZomboidMusic.bank must put directly in the game folder (...\ProjectZomboid\media\sound\banks\Desktop)

Result: If you follow the instrunction reported your main menu image will be displayed like a sort of split screen and not as intended

A-Sorry I'm been to harsh but I was really pissed of on the spot, my apoligies.
The problems are the following: Some of the template images reports the wrong position to be picked and in addition with the recent updates even the measures are slightly changed ( Check in the texture folder ) ;)

Uhm this does work, the port to Nexus proves this and all old main menu mods work.
The file you've linked to is also this file. Maybe elaborate what about the file isn't working? :spiffo:

Bugger, if you are not capable of keeping this mod updated correctly remove it! You let me lose 2 hours to find why your templates were not working...becuase they are all wrong damn!!!!
Guys don't use this mod until ( and if ) will be updated. For the correct measures and positions of the images to be used look at this mod that instead have them correct: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2694709091

Relaxaurus 14 Jan, 2022 @ 7:57am

Preman Kampung 25 Dec, 2021 @ 9:51pm 
I want to say thank you for the template and tutorial. I create a main menu mod using your template. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2694709091
Cheers :steamhappy:

Is there a way to change the "Project Zomboid" main menu title thingy? I've tried changing the source image but that doesn't seem to do anything :(
Akimbo Swords  [author] 20 Dec, 2018 @ 1:02am 
@Novaciano II Late reply but if you want to, upload it to Steam and I'll have a look into the files for you.
Novaciano II 6 Dec, 2018 @ 12:12pm 
Yes, PNG. Only with the title I have a problem, with the other it goes quite well.
Akimbo Swords  [author] 6 Dec, 2018 @ 1:37am 
So it's just the left image isn't changing? Is it still a PNG file?
Novaciano II 5 Dec, 2018 @ 8:09pm 
The title does not change. Any solution?
EPOC16 16 Nov, 2017 @ 7:19am 
Still nothing for me. I wonder if it has something to do with how I have my display settings set. I will test it out and let you know. Sounds like its most likely an issue on my end.
Akimbo Swords  [author] 12 Nov, 2017 @ 4:14pm 
@Legion Hey Legion I loaded up your menu mod and everything works fine on my end, image flashes to a black and white one. Are you still having this error? I'm playing on build 38.22
EPOC16 25 Oct, 2017 @ 11:03am 
This is on the latest stable branch. If you subscribe to mine you will see the files. Maybe something is named wrong or sized wrong on my end? Pretty sure I set them all to the sizes specified.
Akimbo Swords  [author] 16 Oct, 2017 @ 6:43am 
@Legion Is this on the IWBUMS branch? It still works for me on the current version. Also thanks for the credit on your menu mod I do appreciate it.
EPOC16 11 Oct, 2017 @ 8:43am 
I am not sure how it is changed, or even how to fix it but it appears that since you made this, the lightning method has changed. There is no longer a screen flash to the other version. I do however notice a small flash on the bottom middle of the screen ocasionally. I assume this is created by the lightning itself.
PZ-NOOB 21 Mar, 2017 @ 10:42am 
cool, i might give it a try.
