Except for the startup cycle, Railworks is currently using a dynamic screen system that is fed and updated through Steam. No way to change and get things to stick for very long, I'm afraid.

It can be done if you really want it.

Try those URLs in your browser.

So it begins by getting a rss feed with the list of jpegs to fetch. Then it shows those jpegs. All of this using http.
If you want to show your own images, you can:
- find where the address for the rss feed comes from, and change it for your own feed, or
- run a proxy that intercepts this call and redirects it to your own feed, or
- run a program that reads this feed, builds a ghost web server farm on your own server (even localhost), for example it would contain the above images, and then you would redirect (using a proxy, or by modifying your %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file) the addresses for farm8.staticflickr.com and farm6.staticflickr.com to your own server.

But that's a lot of work for a few images.

That was a lot of work just getting my head around the intercept concept.

I just might give this a try, those splashscreens are getting really old. I have however modified the opening splashscreen.

Well I've noticed that I no longer get dynamic loading screens anymore for some reason. I get the OFFLINE splash screen even though I'm online with Steam as is clearly seen with the new DLC marketplace popup bubbles on the sim's main menu screen. Started giving me the OFFLINE splash screen about a month ago. I thought powering off my laptop (instead of my usual SLEEP MODE) might jar it back to dynamic screens.... but no. Neither does clearing the cache either.

Not a big deal to me.... just thought it was strange. Sim works fine otherwise.
