Customized TR look
Why would you want that?
- To reduce page-load times if you have a slow connection
- To make it look like your good old AM
What to do?
- download the image files, from here for example
- setup your computer so it can get to files on your machine using the HTML protocol (have a simple local webserver running)
- setup your TR-account so it knows where on your machine to finde the local files.
Download the ZIPped image-directory
- These files should contain all images currently in use by the game (sometimes the image file is not totally up to date, few images may be missing - bug the developers on the UBB forum!).
- What I do is open Notepad, and type a small text like this:
<HTML>
<h1>MY TR SKIN HOME</h1>
I extracted my downloaded ZIP files in a subdirectory in here.
</HTML>
and save that as "index.html" (with the " " otherwise it becomes index.html.txt) in the directory.
Make your local machine talk the HTML: protocol
(if you didn't have something like it installed already).
- Download a freeware simple local webserver program. My choice was AnalogX SimpleServer:WWW.
- Install it.
- You may have to tell your firewall this program is allowed to act like a server.
- You will have to tell it what directory to use as 'WWW root'.
