• Optional backgrounds randomize (respects aspect ratio of selected background)

• Direct image feed from ProjectZomboid folder (details below)

Open ProjectZomboid game folder, create folder named "direct" and copy images into it so framework will find them.

How to open game folder:


Make sure that:

• You created and put files in main game folders /direct sub folder ( ProjectZomboid/direct )
  
• Images are .png type (format)
  
• Main image is named: background
  
• (optional) If you have lightning image you can add image named: background_lightning
  
• (optional) if you have logo image you can add image named: logo
  
• Make sure logo image sizes are 697 x 456 or menu could be shifted by logo
  
• Open Game options -> MODS and select "Direct" image from drop menu

For multiple direct images rules are similar but:

• Name background files with number at the end (example: background1, background2)
  
• (optional) Name background lightning files with accordingly and number after "background" but before "_lightning" (example: background1_lightning, background2_lightning)
  
• (optional) Name logo files with number at the end (example: logo1, logo2)
  
• Note that files are checked by number one by one ...1,...2,...3 if you skip this order by 10 or more further files won't be read (example with names logo1, logo5, logo16: only logo16 won't be found by framework)
