[REL] Digital UI Clock - Page 2

Interesting and (not unwelcome) clash with another mod.

I also have the less annoying TAI mod, and when i enabled your mod, it made the nav tools dissapear from the hud view (except for when in the big nav map).

This is great because i never used the map tools on the TAI in normal view, only in the big nav map view, and frankly found them annoying sticking up the left side of the view.

Cheers :-)

I have the "Less Annoying TAI map" and the "Player Guidance Icons Removed" mods already installed.
I backed these out through JGSME and then tried re-enabling with your digi-clock mod first up but no joy, as you've already said.

Any pointers would be welcome, I would really like to have the clock on screen all the time. I'm surprised it was missed off in development originally.

Thanks again.

google winmerge.

open both files up in it side by side and it will highlight the things that are different. use common sense and make a merged copy of the files.

it's really that easy (and quick too).

Righto!

I'll have a bash as you say. I've not had any trouble with mods so far, and not really had any clashes either, luckily. I have currently 33 of them activated in JGME...

I'm new to SH and the mods and not too familiar with altering files, etc.

Mostly it's a case of patching a game and away you go...

I seem to have SH5 working as I would like now, and it is the little, subtle things like this mod that can make the game I think, (as well as the more prominent things like the major interface changes obviously).

Thanks for replies.

Nice! Another one to scratch from the 'things I miss dearly' list. Thanks!

Thank you, excellent mod and the winmerge program is very handy.

Ringy.

If you use the winmerge program that was mentioned I found it very easy to use and coming from me thats saying something

if you still have problems lemme know and I'll give you my email whereby you can mail me the 2 files and I can sort it for you and mail them back to you if you wish mate.

Ringy.

gutted, that's a nice tool that I never knew about until you mentioned it. Thanks !

Once submerged, the "We are under water" icon covers the left part of the clock. Anyone else getting that? Anyone know how to adjust that? I do use TheDarkWraith's Old Style Dials if that has any bearing.

Thanks.

Edit: Same with the propaganda or meal icons, etc.

Hi, you can easily displace the submerged-icon. Just left-click on (or near to) it and put it where you like!

Salute!

Many thanks for the mod. The digital 24 hour clock is great, if not historically correct, because you can tell at a glance whether it's AM or PM while in high TC.

The home port anchor icon does cover it though when it's visible. I'm pretty sure I can live with that... but just thought I'd mention it.

As I wrote before: you can move all the message-icons (homeport, shallow waters and so on) where you want to by left-clicking near them (drag and draw...).

Salute!

I saw the little draggy icon appendage thing and thought that's what it was for... but it wouldn't move for me. I'll have to try again.

Thanks
