Default Help Getting my Stealth Meter Back

So,


I've got H.sie and Stiebler mods installed, but don't really care about the weather meter.



I'm using MaGUI F and I'd like to get back the little square stealth meter as opposed to the cloud-shaped meter introduced by Stiebler's mod.


Any idea how I can go about doing that?

I also want it disabled,

I think you need to restore this file:
\SilentHunterIII\data\Menu\Gui\Layout\DialsFdb.tga

See if you can find it in the !backups folder inside mods folder.

Unfortunately, I did restore these lines with the cloud icon showing, but thank you for the help!

I'll take a look and see if this works - thanks!


EDIT - that looks like it'll do that, but I'd lose all of the other dials as well - I'm guessing I'd need to figure out how to edit the tga file to bring the original "Sth" icon into the file and remove the cloud ones.

Go to the mod folder the MAGUI one if you can't find it on !backups, and copy that one.

I've got that. There are two DialsFdb.tga files in the !BACKUP\data\Menu\Gui\Layout folder.


One is labeled DialsFdb.tga.MaGui F and the other is labeled DialsFdb.tga.Stiebler4B_Addon_for_V16B1.


The first one is the backup from stock to MaGUI F. The second one is the backup from MaGUI F to Stiebler (the one I need to copy from).



What I need to do is cut the cloud-shaped icons from the copy of DialsFdb.tga sitting in the main \data\Menu\Gui\Layout folder and paste in the "Sth" icon from the DialsFdb.tga.Stiebler4B_Addon_for_V16B1 in its place.


I just don't know where (x,y pixel coordinates) to place the Stealth indication icon from the MaGUI F version into the current version of the DialsFdb.tga file.


If I just replace the entire DialsFdb.tga file, I replace the *other* dials/icons in that file as well, which is not what I want to do.

Hello 3catcircus,

i would suggest you to follow Nicola's advice.
You don't have to bother yourself with the x,y coordinates as long as you use the "DialsFdb.tga" that MaGui has in its files.

So , just delete the "DialsFdb.tga" that Stiebler4C_V16B1 has in its files and let the game read only the MaGui's "DialsFdb.tga"
