Hi,
First of all im no expert!
But I had the same problem as Abd Von Mumit and I used only the stand alone TDC Mod which I found so usefull.
The trouble was the Obs scope was shagged!
Thank you Geralt because you have solved the problem for me, well almost but without your help I could not have found the problem.
You see even in the stock version of the game I could not find the file:
data/menu/gui/OBS_Periscope.tga therefore it must be missing altogether. I think there are two differant versions of the game either european, us or dvd version or download version because i always noticed the Obs scope was similar to the attack scope.
Ive checked the file folders in the NGYM and GWX versions and they do not have it either? All they have is data/menu/gui/Periscope.tga
Ducimus / Geralt i think perhaps you both have a differant version of the game than some other peole and it contains the differant file. OBS_Periscope.tga
Anyhow there apears to be two ways to solve this problem and I tried one and it worked for me.
Open the file data/menu/menu_1024_768.ini and look for the following:
[G2B I130]
Name=Background
Type=1030;Static bmp
ItemID=0x2B000001
ParentID=0x2B000000
Pos=0,768,1024,768
Color=0xFFFFFFFF
Materials=1
Display=2;Linear
Mat 0=data/menu/gui/OBS_Periscope.tga
Crop 0=0,0,1,0.75
MatFlags=0x21
TexFmt=0x9
Where it says
Mat 0=data/menu/gui/OBS_Periscope.tga
change it to
Mat 0=data/menu/gui/Periscope.tga
it should now read
[G2B I130]
Name=Background
Type=1030;Static bmp
ItemID=0x2B000001
ParentID=0x2B000000
Pos=0,768,1024,768
Color=0xFFFFFFFF
Materials=1
Display=2;Linear
Mat 0=data/menu/gui/Periscope.tga
Crop 0=0,0,1,0.75
MatFlags=0x21
TexFmt=0x9
The only other way to do it is if someone posts up a copy of the OBS_Priscope.tga file somewhere for us to download as it doesnt seem to come with the version of the stock game / GWX or NGYM that I have.
Thank you again Geralt for your help
and Decimus for this great Mod.
