Empires Ascendant - UI & Main Menu

THIS WON'T WORK UNLESS YOU MOVE IT FROM YOUR MODS FOLDER TO YOUR GAME'S DLC FOLDER, AS SHOWN IN THE ABOVE SCREENSHOT. The game has to load the art before the modscreen to display it on the main menu. After you've moved it you can delete it from your MODS folder/unsubscribe.

Manual Download (v74.1)[drive.google.com]

This is a combination of five things:

1) A main menu replacer for people who hate looking at the ugly and depressing industrial era main menu, and wonder why god Firaxis didn't use more of their incredible Craig Mullins wonder art. This allows all of the 50 Vanilla / G&K / BNW loading screens (either renders of the cinematic opens or Mullins art in larger form than the wonder splashes) to show behind the main menu.

2) I missed Baba Yetu and was really tired of the BNW theme. No shade, it's excellent, but Baba Yetu is better. This replaces the BNW theme with Christopher Tin's excellent music, conducted by the man himself and performed at Cadogan Hall in 2016.

3) Replaces the "Brave New World" text with "Empires Ascendant" and adds several of Craig Mullin's pieces of concept art from Age of Empires III (some of which were used in other places in Empires Ascendant) to the rotation of available main menu screens.

4) Replaces UniqueBonuses.lua and Highlights.xml with some additions for my own purposes. (Tribal Borders won't be visible unless this is installed correctly.)

5) Restores the Gods and Kings UI Textures with some custom tweaks, because the Brave New World green is awfully boring after 10 years.

Again, big shoutouts to Craig Mullins and Christopher Tin for being incredible, tippy-top tier artists.

OTHER PSEUDO-DLC I RECOMMEND YOU USE:

- Estebanium's Terrain Texture Enhancement[forums.civfanatics.com]
This one I don't like, because it doesn't download mods from the workshop automatically or allow you to delete/unsub, but you might like it, it's pretty nifty.
- Sukritact's Enhanced Modding Screen[forums.civfanatics.com]
This next one my mods don't support, but it's so COOL!
- JFD's True Alternative Leaders[forums.civfanatics.com]
