Hey

I would like my user to be able to copy in their own image file that would then render in the standalone game. (ex. user replaces pic1.jpg, which is just a placeholder image in the game, with a pic1.jpg named file that contains a picture of their face.) So when the standalone runs it will load in the user's image.) To the standalone the pic1.jpg is just a filename and as long as the substituted image is of the same size etc., it should load in and display properly on the ingame entity.
However, I know that the images in a standalone game are encrypted, so will Game Guru load in an unencrypted user file of the same name as the standalone's original encrypted file?

Yes, it will load the Un encrypted version of the same named file.
Just delete the encrypted one and put in the place holder image instead.

Then the end user should be able to replace that file on there end and see there picture instead.
