Default Different picture for background

I'm trying to change the background texture in my "Groupwindow", Instead of using the default texture i want to add my own picture. Anyone know which file i need to modify?

wnd_bg_dark_rock.tga would be my guess.

Default From Defualt folder

window_pieces01.tga

window_pieces02.tga

window_pieces03.tga

window_pieces04.tga

window_pieces05.tga

those are the files from the default eq ui folder so check ur folder u are playing in to see if they are there and if u can edit them somehow a friend edited it to purple for me

i sorta want different texture for different windows. When i replace the wnd_bg_dark_rock.tga file with my graphic file it replace the whole UI with my graphic and i don't want that. So my question is, is there a way to specific which window get which background texture?

Yes it can be done.

You just need to import the image and make a new DrawTemplate using that as the background.

See the EQUI_Templates.xml for the current templates.

k right now my equitemplate.xml is using <WindowDrawTemplate item="WDT_Def"> But i have no idea wtf is WDT_Def hehe and <Background>wnd_bg_light_rock.tga</Background> so tell me what i need to change? I got my own .tga texture already so do i just change <Background>wnd_bg_light_rock.tga</Background> to <Background>myowntexture.tga</Background>?

But when i scroll down some more there is other different kind of windowdrawtemplate format. Which want is for which windows? and what is all these WDT_DEF, WDT_DEF2 code? i can't find any info about them.
