Hello everyone, wanted to ask a quick question.
Had to reinstall TF2 and get a new HUD, and thought of a thing that would be pretty awesome to have control over. RaysHUD has this majestic sparkly main menu theme picture - is there a way to change it to what i want it to be?
if anyone cares i want to update it to this old-school menu picture, brings me back down the memory lane every time.

In Resource/ui go to mainmenu.res and find "Background". There's a bunch of if_ values there for the background image, but I think if you just chagne all of them to the same image it'll work fine.
Take the image you have and make into a vtf and save it as it "background_2fort.vtf" and make another called "background_2fort_widescreen.vtf". Then in mainmenuoverride.res have the image in the background section be background_2fort.vtf or background_2fort_widescreen depending on your aspect ratio.

Do the same, I meant to say MainMenuOverride and just typed out the wrong shit.

update - my mainmenuoverride looks like this
#base "../../^Customizations/#enabled/TF2LogoOnMainMenu_MainMenuOverride.res"
#base "../../resource/#extras/_additions/MainMenuOverride_MaterialPreload.res"
#base "../../^Customizations/_basefiles/MainMenuOverride.res"
there's no "Background" or whatever the hell you said in the post
sorry if i'm being mentally ill

unless I'm misunderstanding, you'd need to first convert that image into a VTF.
follow steps 1 through 6 here: https://github.com/rbjaxter/budhud/wiki/Custom-Menu-Background
then, move the two files into `AntsHUD/materials/console/`. it should ask you to overwrite two files if you did it right
