Game start up

I am relatively new to torque.have just learnt to use editors and making terrains .have been going through the startup tutorial where we have been making changes to a tutorial.base game by copying it in the gameone folder.it struck me to start a game without the torque background and other editors.so i downloaded a few files from the net.

the problem i am facing is, whenever i am running the game using the torquedemo.exe,a window with the torque background appears.even though i've provided a seperate splashscreen for that purpose.
need some help in this matter.can anybody tell me why this is happeningand how to resolve that?any help is welcome.thank u in advance

This is in the wrong forum, but...

If you look in "client/ui/StartupGui.gui"
You'll find one datablock. 

new GuiFadeinBitmapCtrl(StartupGui) {
   profile = "GuiInputCtrlProfile";
   horizSizing = "right";
   vertSizing = "bottom";
   position = "0 0";
   extent = "640 480";
   minExtent = "8 8";
   visible = "1";
   helpTag = "0";
   bitmap = "./GarageGames"; [b]This is your splash screen[/b]
   wrap = "0";
   fadeinTime = "125";
   waitTime   = "3000";
   fadeoutTime = "125";
};
I marked where your splash screen goes.

Hope that helps
