Try a scripts/chapterbackgrounds.txt that contains this text:
"chapters"
{
}
(the code to manage this is inside the engine).
We are investigating how to expose more of the gameui logic to mods but
don't have anything concrete yet.
Note that you can inject VGUI2 panels into GameUI from your client.dll
(using EngineVGui()->GetPanel( PANEL_GAMEUIDLL ) as the root). Doing
that is an ugly hack however so be careful :)
