This is really weird

I can even switch the backgrounds "on the fly" during the game is running, just by overwriting files in the screen_backgrounds folder.
I was hoping that someone with the steam version would jump in to help us out, it's very difficult for me to retrace what's going on without having the same version...

Somehow your game has to find a resource where it takes the default backgrounds and logos from.
Do you have this directory or is that already different? > C:\Program Files (x86)\Out of the Park Developments\Franchise Hockey Manager 3\default_data\ ...

Maybe it's possible for you to do some kind of "faked" SteamWorkshop thingy.
Creating a new item and/or corresponding folders to make the game look for those and use it.

EDIT: Of course there's a possibility that there's something wrong with the files. Could you please attach one (better two or three zipped) of those you have so that I could have a look at them and test if they work here? Thank you!
