Hi. I’m trying to get a dds image into the ingame UI, but I can’t get it to work. Tried multiple versions of lua. and xml. codes.

At the end I ended up with this lua (see attachment):

-- Create a custom addon
local addonName = "MyAddon"
local addon = {}
 
-- Event handler for addon initialization
function addon.OnAddOnLoaded(event, loadedAddonName)
    if loadedAddonName == addonName then
        
        addon.InitializeUI()
    end
end
 
-- Function to initialize the UI
function addon.InitializeUI()
    -- Create a control for the image
    local imageControl = WINDOW_MANAGER:CreateControl("MyAddonImage", GuiRoot, CT_TEXTURE)
    imageControl:SetTexture("path/to/the/.dds")
    imageControl:SetDimensions(200, 200)
    imageControl:SetAnchor(CENTER, GuiRoot, CENTER, 0, 0)
    imageControl:SetHidden(false)
end
 
-- Register the event handler
EVENT_MANAGER:RegisterForEvent(addonName, EVENT_ADD_ON_LOADED, addon.OnAddOnLoaded)

txt file:

## Title: MyAddon
## APIVersion: 101036
## Author: @MyAddon
MyAddon.lua

I get no error messages with this, but the image isn’t showing either.
Is there something I’m missing out or is the code itself straight up completely false?
