View Full Version : a mysterious linkage....
Hi all, I noticed a bug..
when I switch Telegraph/Speed-Meter by clicking with the mouse, the manual/automatic targeting button switches in the TDC, too! In other words, when I choose the telegraph, the TDC's button goes on manual; when I choose the speedmeter, the TDC's button goes on automatic targeting! :doh: ..the contrary doesn't happen.
I use SH3+GWX2.1 and I play at 98%
....???

I use SH3+GWX2.1
Hi Sag75
This sounds like a remnant of OLC's GUI. If they are the only mod's used above, then I'm at a loss on how that happened.
You could look at Commands_xx.cfg (xx depending on language, en, de, fr) for:
[Cmd131]
Name=Toggle_TDC_autoupdate
Ctxt=1
MnID=0x3F010017 <--------- This is the ID in menu_1024_768.ini which toggles the TDC. You could try putting a ; in front, or removing this command. Don't forget to have a Back-up.
Or better still, install OLC's gui.
Hi, thank you for your laser-driven anwser:ping:! looking in menu_1024_768 i found these lanes:
[G3F I38]
Name=Toggle Throttle Speed
Type=1032;Button
ItemID=0x3F010017
ParentID=0x3F010000
Pos=4,-106,22,22
(..)
The ItemID has the same value found in Command_en:
[Cmd131]
Name=Toggle_TDC_autoupdate
Ctxt=1
MnID=0x3F010017
So, it's strange. I'll try your suggestion, let see..
thanks,
s

Looking at those two statements, then that is definately your problem.
Here's what you should have, taken from SH3 + GWX 2.1:
Your menu_1024_768.ini is O.K, but Commands_en.cfg should be:
[Cmd131]
Name=Toggle_TDC_autoupdate
Ctxt=1
Glad to help.
ok, thank you for helping, so I'll correct my command_en.cfg..
But why this change happened??

The only way that it can happen is when mods are applied. The Commands_en.ini is not your original GWX 2.1 install, it was left in.
That is why I keep another data folder as backup, in case of suspected corruption, I delete the data folder and paste in the original, saves reinstall. If your system ctd's it could leave a corrupted data folder.
