The loading screen for X-Plane 11 can be changed from the default image to any image you prefer by changing one picture file (which is in PNG format)
- The folder in which the file is stored is “X-Plane 11/Resources/bitmaps/interface11”
- The file you will be working with is “image_background_screenshot_for_stack.png''
- As always before making any changes backup, backup, backup. In this case, make a backup of the original file, “image_background_screenshot_for_stack.png''. (I simply renamed mine to“image_background_screenshot_for_stack -Original.png'').
- Select your image file
- If needed, convert the image file to a PNG file
- Make a copy of the original PNG image file.
- Rename the copy to “image_background_screenshot_for_stack.png''
- Move your new image file to “X-Plane 11/Resources/bitmaps/interface11”.
You’re done. Next time you start X-Plane you should see your new image file as the start up screen and the screen for the main menu.
