is this legal?

i want to do it but it's technically a third party program. wooxy has always been fine according to riot, but this specifically is messing with a part of the client i've never changed before.

all i want to do is use this to change my splash art back to old shyvana splash art.

i dont know if its legal but think about this: you risk your account for the old splash of a champ. not worth it at all.

That wasn't the real point though-regardless of whether or not it's legal, is it worth it? Everything is risk versus reward. And that risk isn't worth the reward. That is what he's saying.

how is it not useful to tell you that you risk your account being permabanned for a splash?

you literally didn't give me any useful information i already KNOW you can be banned for 3rd party programs that's why im asking to see if anybody has an actual answer that isn't "lol dont do it xd"

You don't need to use a third party program to do that.

Changing Client Artwork:

  1. Go to C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\RADS\projects\lol_air_client\releases\0.0.1.127 (or whatever number this is)\deploy\assets\images\champions
  2. Find the artwork you would like to replace it with and make sure it has the same dimensions as the one in client -For Splash Arts- 1215 x 717 JPG File
  3. Name the new artwork the same name as the artwork you want to replace. For example, if I wanted to replace Akali's classic splash I would get a different piece of artwork and name it Akali_Splash_0
  4. Replace the file in the directory with the newly named artwork

thank u! i'm assuming this method is legal, yeah?

yup. It won't change in game artwork though, only the load in*. You'll need third party programs to do that, which is always a risk.

oh damn :^(

maybe i'll just send a ticket to riot support asking them if it's legal. but they never give you a straight answer or tell u anything useful so i dont know lmao

i've read somewhere recently that someone was permabanned for using wooxy.

shyv1 votes

i highly doubt that, been using wooxy for a long time and never been hit with so much as a warning.

they were probably just using it as an excuse, trying to get off the hook for scripting by saying it was only wooxy that riot banned for.

just telling you what i read. you can risk your account for it tho, idc, not my problem.

Then do it.

And in a couple months after you get another account, get back to us.

I'm not really a fan of either base Splash, though her current one does have the epic factor.
