+ The Shadow Odyssey Art Loadscreen Readme +
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

NOTE: These screenshots ARE NOT from the beta, these are all publicly available on the EQ2Players website.

This adds the Shadow Odyssey preview art posted at the EQ2Players website to the selection of
random loadscreen images that EQ2 displays during zone loading/unloading.

All the pictures are exactly the same as posted on the EQ2Players website, just resized and/or 
reformatted to fit in the loading screen area.

Note: This will "replace" the first 12 random loadscreens from the default UI

Installation
============

1) Extract the files to your custom UI directory (if this is your first UI mod install, see the info below).
   They should end up in <eq2 dir>/UI/<your UI folder>/images/loadscreens/random


Installing Your First UI Mod
============================
1) Open the "UI" folder in the EQ2 install directory (by default this is "C:\Program Files\Sony\Everquest2\UI\").
2) Create a new folder, name it as you wish (the name cannot include spaces and must be only letters/numbers).
3) Extract your selected UI mod(s) into this folder (make sure that you put them directly into the folder you
   created in step 2).
   Right:  everquest2/UI/myUI/blah.xml
   Wrong:  everquest2/UI/myUI/blah/blah.xml
4) In the EQ2 install directory, open the file "eq2.ini" (Notepad works fine for this).
5) Change the "cl_ui_skinname default" line and replace "default" with the folder name you created in step 2.
