Splashscreen in 2004

8)Does anyone know how to make the Splashscreen in FS2004 a full screen rather than a small window when it is loading?

I was able to do that with FS2002, but so long ago I forgot how, but even at that time, not with FS2004, so maybe not.

The splashscreen image is 800x600 pixels, so if you re-sized it to your screen resolution (e.g. 1280x960), it would fill the screen. Don't forget though - it's a .bmp file, so a larger picture would be b-i-i-i-i-g.

Unless I'm missing something that won't work. I tried it and all you get is part of the larger image. FS truncates the image it shows to 800 x 600.

.....mmm..don't know of any way to do that........or any reason I would even want to.......... ;D

Matt is right though, it does crop the image if you just put a bigger one in there......commoner ;)
