According to the current Campaign Editor Manual the following is stated regarding the outcome 1 and 2 pics shown at the end of a campaign.
2d. Add Other Images
Order of Battle will use default images for campaign Victory or Defeat messages but you will probably want your own custom images for this purpose, such as these, named outcome_1 and outcome_2:
There are other opportunities for including images in a campaign; similar to scenarios, a campaign can have “popup” messages that appear in the beginning of the campaign or between scenarios. Once again, these images be in PNG format, and they need to be saved in the campaign folder. The ideal proportions for this purpose are 512 x 415 pixels.
Ok so I assumed the images need to be named outcome_1 and then outcome_2 also I assumed they need to be 512 x 415 and in png format also I assumed they need to be put into the folder of the campaign here that is below:
Ok so first of all image.png and map.png work fine I did these according to previous instructions in editor manual these have different pixel sizes than 512 x 415 ALSO, during the campaign in the scenarios I have some pop ups that have pics and I use, per instructions, 512 x 415 and these work fine.
But I am doing something wrong with the outcome 1 and 2 stuff. Let us assume the Campaign folder that has all this info is called camp1 that is where all these things are the scenarios folder I made per instructions that have in them another folder for each scenario and it has the files shown above
So what am I doing wrong ??? Thanks the outcome 1 and 2 files are 512 x 415 currently I get the blank pic when the campaign finishes

Re: outcome_1 and outcome_2 not working question
Sorry, that's my mistake. I will correct the manual.
The defaults are actually "event_defeat" and "event_victory" as shown here:
You can rename the files whatever you want as long as the file names match what is entered in the boxes above.

Re: outcome_1 and outcome_2 not working question
Thanks I was to dense to even click around on the defeat and victory branches - had I done that I would have probably figured it out. Currently I have added some specialized Minor and Major Victory pics for various scenarios this procedure sunk in for me thanks for clarifying the final outcome pics procedure for the campaign and updating the manual.
And now I'm a corporal not longer a weak anti tank gun woo hoo !!! A strongpoint - Patton said, "Fixed positions are monuments to the stupidity of man." At least that is what George C. Scott said in the movie PATTON. !!
