ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

On the main menu, it shows the game being played in fast motion behind the New Game/Load Game/Etc menu. It's distracting, like giving me motion sickness. Can I get rid of that?

There is a Button in the lower-left corner of the screen called "Disable Background". Click it.

You can also get extra backgrounds/loading screens by going into video options and disabling censor boot. Hope that helps.

Only one, we really need to get some good tome fanart up on the splash screens.

Whoo! Thanks. That video is really distracting (and eats a lot of CPU, too).

No problem, Aliksy!

I believe it adds two more screens, Crim/Aura, although I still agree with you that more variety would be nice, especially for those of us with long loading times. If anyone reading this can draw real good, or knows someone who can, don't be shy, Darkgod's not really evil. I think.

I suggested something similar before, but no one has yet donated some significant tome fanart yet. Apparently noone listened. Sadly, I have no artistic talent, and the one tome player I know of who did hasn't shown up in over a month. But someone REALLY needs to get this ball rolling. If nothing else, the fanart can be a 'thank you' to darkgod for the game, but we really need to get some moving, so that at least SOME of it can be (at least optionally) available for splash screens.
