I was not entirely sure who to direct this at, ATR-42, or cdrake, but i'm guessing ATR-42 is at least active :P

Question, what are the changes/additions to the menu.ini file made by this mod?

Heres a dl link to the mod for further reference...

I know I could use JTxE, but the amount of time I spent trying to understand how it works, could easily have been spent adding this code by hand :88)

Any ideas anyone?

Akbar,

to run only the Nomograph its a very simple addition to your menu ini, the only thing that needs to be added is the following

[G31 I59]
Name=Nomograph
Type=1030;Static bmp
ItemID=0x3100000f
ParentID=0x31000000
Pos=0,0,200,720
Zone=0 768 200 720 2 1 0x31000000 0.76 -0.02 0x3100000f 0 0 0 0
Color=0xFFFFFFFF
Materials=1
Display=2;Linear
Mat 0=data/menu/gui/layout/nomograph.dds
MatFlags=0x9
TexFmt=0x0


ps. where there any troubles with that menu.ini? let me know i'll take another look at it, but if i recall correctly i just made the addition to stock 1.4 menu.

Cheers ATR, the menu.ini was up to date for 1.4 so no problems there. The reason I needed the line entries was because I have two manual changes to the existing menu.ini already. One being the betterscopes 1.5 entries, another being the simple change to make the message box transparent. Now also the nomograph entry... Just find it a bit easier to have my own compiled menu.ini with preffered mods already in it... Just never know when I may bust my install ^^

Thanks for your rapid help :sunny:
