Waaaa! I hate the new load screen! Can anyone help?

Post by oo7 »

I can't stand the new load screen that came with ToB (which I just got). I used to entertain my five year old with the game (summon and control creatures, etc.), but now I can't, unless I wanna scare him with the ugly skull. Please. Can anyone help me? Does anyone know of any way I could get my old load screen back (the one with the two faces)?

To the Righteous belong the fruits of violent victory. The rest of us will have to settle for warm friends, warm lovers, and a wink from a quietly supportive universe.

Ouch, thats a bummer.
I'd suggest to close your eyes but...
:o
I dont think there is any way around it, though The TDD logo overides the normal one, at least in the SoA version it does. Then its just a scary looking elf guy!!
The waves came crashing in like blindness.
So I just stood and listened.

You let your poor kid watch while you slaughter dozens of innocent (sort of) animals, but don't let him see a little flaming skull? What kind of monster are you???!!!

fable: my apologies. I won't do it again.

Knight Errant: that was my last resort...

Tirinal: did you know that if you just let them stand, they'll go around eachother in circles? Very funny for a 5 year old... Not to mention turning into a "puddle"

Sabre: Thank you very much! This made my day!

What's wrong with that?
Centuries ago in England........It was an era of chivalry and magic. The evil Prince John unleashed an iron fist of tyranny upon the people. They called out for a champion.........one man answered that call. His name, was Robin Hood. Fearless in his quest for justice Robin Hood challenged the power of the high warlords. While protecting the helpless and the poor. Willing to face death for what he believed, along with the beautiful, lady warrior, Jaheira, the mighty Minsc, and the wise Keldorn. Robin Hood forged a legend that lives on today in............

My six year old loves it :) He especially likes casting spells and summoning creatures :)

What I have done with him is let him play BG1, I have an old load game where areas have been cleared...he takes his party there and can play around with spells, and moving the party around as much as he likes...without any violence.

He is also good at Settlers, Black and White and Monkey Island...it seems nothing is sacred :rolleyes: :D
