Fix's to NavMap - Scrolling

[Reece]

Hi, I don't know if anyone has done this small mod yet to get rid of the screen titles that come up in the top left corner when changing stations such as "BRIDGE", also stop the Navmap from scrolling with cursor, I fing being able to scroll by holding the left mouse down and dragging enough, the mouse scrolling, to me, is a pain.

Open the menu_1024_768.ini file with notepad.

1) Getting rid of screen titles.
Find the following block and insert semicolans in the Pos= & Zone= lines as below:

[G3F I138]
Name=Title
Type=1026;Menu group
ItemID=0x3F350000
ParentID=0x3F000000
;Pos=46,0,400,24
;Zone= 46 768 400 24 0 1 0x3F000000 0.0449219 0 0x3F350000 0 0 0 0
Color=0xFFFFFFFF

2) Stop Navmap scrolling.
Locate the following 4 blocks & edit the ParentID= line to each block as shown:

[G31 I24]
Name=Scroll bottom
Type=1030;Static bmp
ItemID=0x31000004
ParentID=0x3F000000; Original ParentID=0x31000000
Pos=0,-738,1024,30
Zone= 0 30 1024 30 3 1 0x31000000 0.5 -1 0x31000004 -0.5 1 0 0
Color=0xFFFFFF00
Materials=1
Display=2;Linear
Mat 0=data/menu/gui/layout/bkgr.tga
MatFlags=0x1
TexFmt=0x0

[G31 I25]
Name=Scroll right
Type=1030;Static bmp
ItemID=0x31000003
ParentID=0x3F000000; Original ParentID=0x31000000
Pos=1004,0,20,638
Zone= 1004 768 20 638 4 1 0x31000000 1 0 0x31000003 -1 0 0 0
Color=0xFFFFFF00
Materials=1
Display=2;Linear
Mat 0=data/menu/gui/layout/bkgr.tga
MatFlags=0x1
TexFmt=0x0

[G31 I26]
Name=Scroll top
Type=1030;Static bmp
ItemID=0x31000002
ParentID=0x3F000000; Original ParentID=0x31000000
Pos=0,0,1024,20
Zone= 0 768 1024 20 3 1 0x31000000 0.5 0 0x31000002 -0.5 0 0 0
Color=0xFFFFFF00
Materials=1
Display=2;Linear
Mat 0=data/menu/gui/layout/bkgr.tga
MatFlags=0x1
TexFmt=0x0

[G31 I27]
Name=Scroll left
Type=1030;Static bmp
ItemID=0x31000001
ParentID=0x3F000000; Original ParentID=0x31000000
Pos=0,0,20,400
Zone= 0 768 20 400 4 1 0x31000000 0 0 0x31000001 0 0 0 0
Color=0xFFFFFF00
Materials=1
Display=2;Linear
Mat 0=data/menu/gui/layout/bkgr.tga
MatFlags=0x1
TexFmt=0x0

That's it save and done, don't forget to backup your menu_1024_768.ini first.

Note. If this Mod has been done already then just ignore.

ahoy, mate,


just a quick note to say thank you for publicizing this data. even though it is 2019, we are still playing SH4 and still need to "stop-the-scrolling".
if i was down under, i would buy you a beer.


cheers!

Thanks
Drives me nuts when I put down my mouse than turn back to find I've been teleported to the arctic circle.

and thanks for the ini entries, Im learning how to do more but find Im crap for explaining it. I dont know why SH4 dont get more love. it looks almost as good as SH5, so we cant wounder around the engine room, game loads ten times faster...
