Or set the view options so you can see file extensions, and rename it from the folder itself.

But there OK...

No offense, but I really think maxnick's logo is better, and the loading screen is a bit boring compared to ours, but that's probably because I made... Well, I didn't make maxnick's logo, but I made my loading screen.

I'm not trying to be rude.

Are you using my idea for the loading screen?

7. If there is a GameData folder, like Kooky said, then what goes in it?

8. How do I use custom icons?

MY ANSWERS:

6. Just change the filenames' letters a letter forward in the alphabet:

A=B
B=C
C=D
D=E
E=F
F=G
G=H
H=I
I=J
J=K
K=L
L=M
M=N
N=O
O=P
P=Q
Q=R
R=S
S=T
T=U
U=V
V=W
W=X
X=Y
Y=Z
Z=A

7. Just save game data.

8. The custom icon files are somewhere in the Graphics folder. Edit them like you would edit the logo files. But if you mean actually commanding something to use a certain custom icon, then I don't know.

GameData only appears if you rename a certain text document in the demo.

I think.

Yes, if you're using MoFI you should change "localsaveoff.txt" to "localsaveon.txt".

And BTW, Custom Icons go in Gamedata\Custom Content\Icons.

GameData = UserData.

Are you trying to use a new texture or a WA1 area?

If you used a custom texture, did you...

-Put .wdf at the end of the filename
-Put it with all of the other textures
-Encode the filename

WAIT! CUSTOM TEXTURES GO IN:

GameData\Custom Content\Textures.

if your texture name is (for example) Texturenamezzz DO NOT name it Ufyuqfmzkfaaa.wdf etc. Just copy it from the editor.
