New Menu Buttons v4
by zbear
10 February 2002


These muenu bottons replace the old three in the upper left corner of the main Civilization III screen. A little menu, the small brown Civilopedia book with the "C" on it, and the Science Advisor's head (a/k/a SidMeier) replace the old triangle, square, and circle.

instructions:
1. Backup your files: go to your Civilization III folder (probably in your "Program Files" folder) and find the "Art/interface" folder. Find "menuButtons.pcx" and "menuButtonsAlpha.pcx" and back them up. Either rename them both (for example to "originalmenuButtons.pcx") or create a folder (for example "Original Art") and put them in it.
2. Unzip "menuButtons.zip": unzip the file "menuButtons.zip" into the "Art/interface" folder, or unzip it to somewhere else and manually transfer the unzipped files into the Civilization 3 "Art/interface" folder.

history-this is the fourth version, correcting the shade of black around the icons; if your old version looks good, you don't need this one--at first when I made v1-v3 they looked fine on my computer, but later I noticed square artifacts around the icons, and I don't know if this was because of some later corruption, or I just didn't notice it before, but to correct this, here is v4. The first two versions were unnumbered, but their files were dated (v1) 21 Jan 02 or (v2) 24/28 Jan 02. Version 3 corrected the outline of Sid's head.
