Hey I have a question about custom login screens for WotLK 3.3.5a. I want to create my own animated background. Since I do not want to make a custom M2 file, my plan was to use multiple BLPs and create a sequence or animation from them using Lua. I used the AccountLogin.xml file and loaded my script like this <Script file="Interface\Glues\Mainmenu\AccountLoginBackground.lua"/> and called it with <Frame name="AccountLoginBackground" setAllPoints="true" parent="GlueParent" frameLevel="0"><Scripts><OnLoad>AccountLoginBackground_Init(self)</OnLoad></Scripts></Frame>. However, when I start WoW, I get an error saying that my interface files are corrupted and WoW closes immediately. Is there anything I can do to fix this, like deleting a safe file, do i need a specific patched client or is it just not possible that way?
