NOTE- LIKE ALL MY OTHER GUIDES, THEY ARE VERY RUSHED AND NOT IN DETAIL. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE REPLY TO THE THREAD AND I WILL ANSWER THEM!

This login screen requires some setting up if you want to use it for a private server. Ohhh yeah, this is meant for a private server, not real co! It's not recommended to use on real co, but it is your choice wether you want to or not.

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

For a start, you will need to download the following....

Login Installed - [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

Server Icon PSD+FLA - [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

Group Icon FLA - [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

Basically what you need to set up is the Server.dat and the images for your server that will be displayed in the login screen.

Let's start off with the Server.dat, since its the easiest part. Configure your Server.dat so that the flash image is your SERVER'S NAME

If you don't want to follow the guide due to laziness, you can just open your Server.dat and change the Group/Server01.swf (Whatever it is) and change it to VirtualReality.

Code:
Example - Pic1=Group/Server01.swf ----> Pic1=VirtualReality

(VirtualReality was one of my old server names)

I made up the example off the top of my head, so I don't know if I said it right, please correct me if I didnt type it right.. (I have no conquer client to check)

You must do this for the [COLOR=Red]SERVER + GROUP PART OF THE SERVER.DAT!
Once you have set the Pic of your Server AND Group for your Server.dat, you will start to edit the server&group pictures!

Download the Server Icon PSD+FLA & Group Icon FLA with the links I provided above.

Note - You will need Adobe Photoshop + Adobe Flash inorder to use these files!!

Open the Server Icon.PSD with Photoshop.

Just edit the Icon to your liking and then save it.

Next, open the Server Icon.FLA with Adobe Flash.

Drag & drop the image your created on the Server Icon.PSD into the Adobe Flash, and you will notice in the bottom right corner of Adobe Flash, that there is a list of imported files, look for the image you just dragged&dropped into Adobe Flash and then Drag&Drop the image in the list that you just found into the workspace of Adobe Flash.

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

Now edit the Server Icon.FLA to your liking and save&export it.

Once you have done that, open the Group Icon.FLA and edit that to youe liking..

Once you are done, you should have 2 files. One is the Group Icon.SWF & Server Icon.SWF.

Now what you do is.. You rename the file to this format..

Code:
Server Icon.SWF is renamed to...
[COLOR=Red]SERVERNAME[/COLOR]S.MI
Group Icon.SWF is renamed to...
[COLOR=Red]SERVERNAME[/COLOR]G.MI
Note - The file extension is being changed from SWF to MI! The files need to be in this format or they will not work!!
Once you have finished, you should have something like this..

Code:
Example... If my server were named [COLOR=Red]IHateTQ[/COLOR] then I would have this..

Server Icon.SWF is renamed to...
[COLOR=Red]IHateTQ[/COLOR]S.MI
Group Icon.SWF is renamed to...
[COLOR=Red]IHateTQ[/COLOR]G.MI
Once you have renamed the file just put the 2 files in Conquer/main/MIFL/

If you have followed this guide correctly, you should be able to see the NEW Server & Group icon that you have editted! =][/COLOR]

I think it'd be better if you added this to your other login thread.
