[REL] Enhanced Ship Recon Manual V2.01

[reaper7]

Uploading version 2.1 of my enhanced recognition mod V2.1 as a seperate Mod from my UI mod for those guys that want it.

JGSME Compatibale, works with Patch 1.2 and Stock. :up:

Thanks to SteelViking for his help in getting this seperated from the UI Mod and bringing it together.

File Edited to include correctly scalled ship images

You are more than welcome my friend.:yeah:

Problem:
The ships image seems too big for the manual.
Also, Is it possible to change the color of the font? It's kind of hard to read.

reaper7, you know, I could scale those ship pictures for you to save you the time. Just let me know if you want me to work on that, could take a little while.

Still looking for that elusive font colour, Have found and replaced all the others but that one. Will keep looking in the styles sheet.

Is this happening for all ships are just a few. I have already scalled all the ship dds images fo fit, maybe I missed one or two. That pic looks like an original sizes dds file of 512x254 whereas I..........

Ok I just figured out what is causing this ...doh.

I never included my resizes ship Images when I relased the Mod as standalone.

:har: How silly of me will repackage the Mod to include the resized dds files.

Sorry!


Edit: File now contains correct scaled ship Images.
Download in first post.

Ok, lol, mistakes suck, except when they are easy to fix:haha:

As a temporary solution, I have darkened the pages of the manual to make it easier to read. It can be downloaded here (JSGME compatible): ESRM 2.10 dark
(http://www.4shared.com/file/WmOnsada/ESRM_210_dark.html]ESRM%202.10%20dark.rar)
You still need the original ESMR 2.10. This package only contains the modified dds files.

Hmmm, the ship's shapes are not naturl now... maybe the better solution is the color filer or colouress image with alpha chanel?

Hey Poker68, good idea for a short term fix.:up:

[Vorkapitan]

Hey Poker,

That mod is pretty good the way it is.....maybe Reaper can use is AS IS?

Good idea.

I have discovered that the mast height is wrong when using the stadimeter.
NewUIs by TheDarkWraith fixes the stadimeter bug, but when using this mod, the error is back.

I hope someone with a bit knowledge can include TheDarkWraith's stadimeter/mast height fix into this mod.

For now, the recon manual is not usable for manual targeting. :cry:

TDW just decided to release his code for the stadimeter fix. So, a fix is coming. In the mean time, you could cheat and measure the distance on the map if you have contact updates enabled. Or, you could use the angle on bow method using the RAOBF. I am not the one to ask how to do that though, as I only barely understand it myself.:haha:

Any news please? Love this Recon manual...
