Description:
Fixes various UI issues introduced in the 2.1 update

Patch 2.1 introduced a bug where some UI elements were pointed to the wrong directory (see gallery). This was noticeable for the mission icon arrow, the building category scroll icon, and the currency upkeep icons. This mod fixes this by creating the file path that the developers accidentally left in the game and creating the paths for the currency icons.

Please let me know ASAP if you find any more semi-transparent white/colored boxes like you see in the gallery.

Background:

Using the Content Viewer, I found at least two references to ui/skins/default elements that are directed to a dev build in CA’s local developer’s storage instead of using the game’s virtual file system.

1. The first is in the building category menu, the "building_cat_scroll_bottom.png" file has a specified path of "t:brancheswarhammer3champions_ie_v2warhammerworking_datauiskinsdefault" Instead the VFS path should have been "uiskinsdefault" or maybe "uiskinswarhammer3"

2. The second one is the campaign mission icon, the "reinforcement_ui_arrow_color.png" file has a specified path of "e:twbrancheswarhammer3champions_ie_v2warhammerworking_datauiskinsdefault" Instead the VFS path should have been "uiskinsdefault" as well.

3. The game caches the culture currency icon of whatever culture you load first, then applies it to other cultures if you load another save afterward because it’s looking at the wrong path.

I’ve already reported these bugs on the official Total War forums[forums.totalwar.com].

Read Me:

Is this save game compatible?
Yes.

Is this compatible with UI mods?
Yes, but not UI mods that change currency icons.

Tips are appreciated!
