User Interface (UI) is somewhat complicated stuff to get it right, but once done really is enjoyable to view.

Requirements:
Perl tga2res.pl procidx.pl irc2res.pl
UI's are all 800×600 256 colors TGA 8 bit uncompressed and flipped (turned up side down) be sure to name the tga files the same as here:
Main screen - mainbg.tga
Dogfight screen - dgftbg.tga
Tactical Engagement screen - tacengbg.tga
Campaign screen - campbg.tga
use the following lines to produce the idx/rsc files
./tga2res.pl mainbg.tga MAIN_SCRN
./tga2res.pl dgftbg.tga DGFT_SCREEN
./tga2res.pl tacengbg.tga TAC_SCREEN
./tga2res.pl campbg.tga CB_MAIN_TGA
Perl script has now created the following files:
mainbg.idx
mainbg.rsc
dgftbg.idx
dgftbg.rsc
tacengbg.idx
tacengbg.rsc
campbg.idx
campbg.rsc
Copy the newly produced files into art/resource folder. You're done!
