How to use your custom pictures in game as wallpaper

First of you will be dealing with 2 files the rest is ********
intros that take up ram space during load some of em as high as 100mb,
the following files are:
menu_loggedin.bik (background when you are logged in)
menu.bik (background where you choose account name Prefix etc..)
These two files can be found in "C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\Movies" (where I have it) you might of installed it in different directory narrow it down and open that folder.
Now remove all .bik files from that directory you won't need them or just move them to backup fiolder.
Download and install following tool http://www.radgametools.com/down/Bink/RADTools.exe
go to directory you installed it in and run radvideo.exe
you should get this interface :


Now go ahead and choose any picture format file in that interface like so



Now click Bink it , make sure your files do not exceed 1900x1200 resolution as you might encounter some problems


That's it you've created your menu.bik do the same for menu_loggedin.bik with the same file or different one and place them in "C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\Movies"

Re: Custom wallpaper in game

does this speed up load times if the file is smaller than the original. if so i'd definetly like to try this.

I doubt it will improve load times, it's not an optimization or an over clock. It's just a simple wallpaper change. Nice findtoo BTW!
