I would love to have this mod with its menu, but without the backgrounds, allowing the user to download "background packs" optionally.

Same issue as wjw_wrsnk

Hello, me again from forever ago, just checking up on how uploading the high-res copies of the new waves of backgrounds is going. I also forgot I asked so no harm done, but it would be nice.

issue report:

Could not execute post-long-event action. Exception: System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException: The given key '-1§Vanilla' was not present in the dictionary.
...
at VBE.ModCompat.LoadRimThemesImages()

This is because the VBE (Vanilla Backgrounds Expanded) module, during initialization, attempts to find a key named -1§Vanilla in the RimThemes image resource. However, this key does not exist in the dictionary, causing a crash.

Hi, currently this mod doesn't seem to be properly working with rimthemes. The rimtheme menu always overrides this mod's background, regardless of load order and settings (be it rimthemes' or this one's).

Could add light posterization (maybe with added noise overlays beforehand to reduce banding) to improve filesize and loading, maybe with that as a fork or something

Running this as part of a modpack on my Mac, and the button to open the folder for my own images doesn't work. Anyone know where I could copy pictures to so that the mod still picks up my own backgrounds? Apple M2 chip and Sequoia 15.5 OS. Cheers.

what's the image size for custom backgrounds?

Anyone else getting corrupted text if they have this mod enabled? (literally random ascil text with a lot of spaces between them)

Hello i get two errors sometimes with this mod on startup

doesnt work

@itznitro no, his images in 4k are uploaded to a drive, its just the drive that hasn't been updated. The Awakening background is apparently from a WIP mod project that was paused or something about archotech stuff but guy went and got the background for this mod, yet didn't offer it standalone.

pls update 1.6?

delandar, best u could do is hunt through the files for them.

Q: Can we make animated backgrounds?
A: Yes! Simply put it in Videos/ instead of Textures/ and make sure to use .webm. Other than that, it's exactly like using image backgrounds.

I don't know where this [folder] is, I put it in \ workshop \ content \ 294100 \ 2775017012 \ Videos, but it doesn't seem to be read

Dont want to be too persistent but well, seeing how the last there was about this topic was june of 2024, i am not really hopeful here. I honestly don't mind if its in the patreon or anything, i just want the background for wallpaper, its simply THAT amazing and I'm pretty sure many can agree.

+1 to the people asking if we can get a download for the Awakening background

Can the Awakening background be obtained in 4k as wallpaper from anywhere in particular? It's not in the drive.

yo, does this work with CE?

yes, i am a chair - I just need to know cause gotta tell my human when they get back

not sure yet, but does this works with CE in 1.5? I mean the last update was back in 2024. Have to make sure it works, dont want my game to crash again.

Can you fix the red question mark background when using this mod with 'Performance Fish'?

awakening isnt anywhere in the google drive, really wanted it as a pc wallpaper

@BudderCobi
Just saying that without providing a log wont help you. The fact that no one else is reporting this means its unique to you and no one can tell you what the issue is if you don't provide the necessary information.

Having this mod active caused my game to crash when it was done with the initialization process lmao

The ship in Obligation has an enormous shadow, and it's really annoying me, because it implies that either that ship is enormous, or the sun is like two inches from it.

same problem @BlondishMeat61 my custom animated backgrounds show up as thin gray boxes despite (as far as i can tell) placing them where they should

also where is the videos folder? it isn't in the workshop folder or locallow.

are webm backgrounds working for anyone else? when i try to use them it just appears grey in the menu and causes errors.

Can you fix the red question mark background when using this mod with 'Performance Fish'

@Damnationjumpers 7 it's 10.00 - 15.00

I accidentally touched the cycle time option...What's the default again?

Interestingly getting the same problem with the red question mark background since today.

There was a problem with the mod. When loading RimWorld itself, instead of the background from the mods, a white background with a red question mark appears.

@Tory Thank you, will look into it if that was the error

@Seki
vp9 codec doesnt work, vp8 does

hi, i converted a video to webm and put it into my backgrounds folder but the video isn´t working ingame. Does the webm file need to fullfill specific requierements like size or something like that?

Not every background seems to be in the drive, I was looking specifically for the awakening background

Hi, first of all, I like this mod, something I always wanted.
Now I have a question: Is it possible or maybe planned to be able to create something like a playlist? So I just need to load the playlist for the slideshow and the backgrounds will be automatically selected and deselcted. I ask because I like to change the images in rotation often and that would be a nice feature if I could create some lists depending on which images I want. Sorry if it is already integrated and I am just to blind to see that feature.

Is there a Mod that removes the Windows with all your Mods during the Loading? Kinda pointless to have the nice backgrounds if your loading screen is 80% covered by the pointless window of mods.

I have these as my laptop's desktop backgrounds slide show, eleven and a third out of three pi.

The drive doesn't have every background available in the mod?

Cheers mate!

Sure!

Hello, I would like to ask if a can use your images as background for my streams. You will be credited of course. Thanks in advance.

If anyone is getting sub 20 fps or lower its probably because of a conflict with this mod and RimThemes. Using "Dubs Performance Analyzer" mod I found the mod to be destroying fps in the GUI section. Removed the mod, and everything is buttery smooth again. I'm using a medieval theme with RimThemes. Not sure what went wrong, but just thought I'd let anyone know if they FPS went to crap, try removing this mod to see if its the issue.

Does this mod 100% work with Combat Extended? I want to be sure juuuuuust incase.

This mod conflicts with the Character Editor. When the sorting of this mod is above the Character Editor, it will cause all UI in the main menu to be unable to open

i made the images from .png to .jpg format and cut file size in half while also getting faster loading times also looking not much different

Use Hugslib mod and press ctrl + F12 in game, have it upload to git and paste link here.

No, I don't have it (Rimworld OR the mod) installed on the C: drive, which is why it's throwing error messages when I load the game with it installed.
