You have to learn how to work with "SHIII:\data\Menu\menu_1024_768.ini". You try to copy things, not move. There are Documentations around what all these Parts in the Menu*.ini are good for.
As things have been already changed in this file in LSH3v15 i see no reason it could not be re-changed again. Maybe a month of work on a every evening basis.

"Menu.iniGuides.rar" from SquareSteelBar
"MenuIniGuide11.pdf" from SCUDDER
"SH3MenuTutorial.pdf" from Latemail

where a good startpoint.
For Links maybe search a little in s7rikeback's collection. Look at his signature of last posts here. Or in the CommunityMods-collection found in sticky thread "Maiks serious SH3-Mod archives". Look at Last page of Plissken_04 post.

I dont know for shure if these are listed under Modder-name or in something like "Documentation" or so.

Any progress?



Around 76 sections (what are 1067 lines) from G26 "Page attack periscope" may be copied and re-numbered to G34 "Page exterior". With new ItemID and rearranged ParentID. Then it may be look like this (Not WideScreen):

All the new Buttons/Dials to work needs also the entries added into Dials.cfg.

With the Help of the Menu-Editor integrated in SH5 and 'mySH3-TooL' should be possible within the target Time-scale.
