[MIRROR] Updates Title Screen Instructions [MDB IGNORE] (#12107)
* Updates Title Screen Instructions (#65233) About The Pull Request The instructions Found in the readme file for config directory loaded title screens has become out of date. The move to wide screen title cards invalidated the specification outlined in the readme. Also a section of the readme mentioned loading map names from .DM files. Those map names names were migrated to JSON files long ago and the documentation in the readme was never updated to reflect it. Why It's Good For The Game Correct documentation on title card specifications leads to more efficient work flows as les time is pent on correction.

Keep in mind that the area a title screen fills is a 480px square so you should scale/crop source images to these dimensions first.
|
||||
The game won't scale these images for you, so smaller images will not fill the screen and larger ones will be cut off.

|

Using unnecessarily huge images can cause client side lag and should be avoided. Extremely large GIFs should preferentially be converted to DMIs.
