my favourite dials mod?

I'm assuming this is FLBSale's simfeeling dials. If this is the case find the following sections:


[G3F I33]
Name=Slideout Konsole; FLB Sale`s 6 Anzeigen
Type=1026;Menu group
ItemID=0x3F0C0000
ParentID=0x3F000000
Pos=0,141,670,140
Color=0xFFFFFFFF
;VertSlide=-130

[G3F I348]
Name=Group feedback; FLB Sale`s 6 Anzeigen, Konsole & Uhrfeld
Type=1026;Menu group
ItemID=0x3F010000
ParentID=0x3F000000
Pos=0,145,733,145
Color=0xFFFFFFFF
;VertSlide=-144

... and put semicolons in front of the VertSlide as shown, or remove the line all together

Thank you that worked. It's really handy as i've missed some convoys for i didnt see the messages..

The second one doesn't work though. I have the version made for 1.02 GXW (cooler dials imo). The text stays, the clock doesnt. Here is what i have instead of the second file:

[G3F I33]
Name=Slideout Konsole; FLB Sale`s 6 Anzeigen
Type=1026;Menu group
ItemID=0x3F0C0000
ParentID=0x3F000000
Pos=0,141,670,140
Color=0xFFFFFFFF
;VertSlide=-130

This works.

[G3F I385]
Name=Group feedback; FLB Sale`s 6 Anzeigen, Konsole & Uhrfeld
Type=1026;Menu group
ItemID=0x3F010000
ParentID=0x3F000000
Pos=0,145,733,145
Color=0xFFFFFFFF
VertSlide=-144

This doesn't. Maybe it's another line? I'm trying all vertslides off to see if i can affect that. But if you happen to be around, please help! Thanks again

[Nuoz]

I've tested all vertslides. The clock is not on this file or if it is, i don't know where. What pops up if i change that in my last post is that i get a small buggy clock bar on top of the sliding one. Any idea where it can be? Maybe another file?

I don't know german but based on the name of the second editing i found:

[G3F I397]
Name=Hintergrund
Type=1030;Static bmp
ItemID=0x3F010010
ParentID=0x3F010000
Pos=4,0,733,145
Materials=1
Display=0;No stretch
Mat 0=data/menu/gui/layout/Uhrfeld.tga
MatFlags=0x29
TexFmt=0x9

Can it be this?

I'm sorry your instructions were ENTIRELY CORRECT. I was dumb enough not to restart the entire game and just reload the mission :S. Anyway, thx again. To the "my favourite dials creators: Please make this standard or mention how to in you manual. Two reasons pop to mind: Some players like to play the game in german but dont understand the language. And you can miss contacts if you happen to have your mouse elsewere if the game is accelerated.. Thx

Cool, glad it worked for you.

I don't know who released the my favourite dials version, but in the original release from FLBSale, way back when, the information is actually in the readme.

Thx Boris for help!:up: I'm "creator" of "My favourite dials mod" (I'm just merged dials mod one from FLB Sale and one from Ducimus "TW standalone periscope mod") and called It "My favourite dials mod" because this is settings I much like and also this mod contains original readme's from their original authors. But anyway I will put this in new readme when I made a final version for GWX v.1.04 when came out. Thanks.
