Findings so far:
- The game doesn't recognise /Public/Modname/GUI folder
- Experimented by putting it into /Public/Game/GUI which the game recognised, but caused it to crash so hard, I had to log-off my windows user account and log back in, to free my system up from it.
Since the crash occurred simply by having minor changes to it. I am going to do two experiments:
- Try unaltered characterCreation.swf in that same location.
- Try recompiled version of characterCreation.swf.
This will tell me if it is the fact its there, or if it is an issue witth the decompiled/compiled. If both work, it means it was down to my edits, which is the most 'positive'. The most negative is it failing with the default, it means I have to put the work on hold until Larian change the system. The second one would be an issue with the decompiled/re-compiled version, which means I have to mess around or hope Larian release the original .fla file.
Fingers crossed.
Update:
Good news, the extracted version is working. Now to test step 2.
Bad news, the compiling of the decompiled didn't work.
