Before i do, am i to uninstall the original "Fistfull of emblems" and the "Weathered emblems", then install this mod?

And what is different about the mod your suggesting?...why will this make a difference?, the fistfull of emblems mod does work and they are all there for me to use, its onlt my emblem i can't get working..just in-case you thought the mod was'nt working aswell.

unninstal boths mods

make a back-up copy for "Fistfull of emblems

overwritte my mod in mod file over "Fistfull of emblems

enable the Fistfull of emblems and Weathered emblems

i do not know what you are doing wrong - i explained to you the steps that i made when i did my emblems

P.S. if is still not working desable Weathered emblems and try again ( i do not use Weathered emblems)

Ok, one question, how do i overwrite the Fistfull of emblems with your mod. Will your mod not overwrite Fistfull of emblems when it is activated through JSGME automatically??

Excellent, though i've seen a problem already. I was expecting the chopped bits on the side to not have a white background! i thought i was deleting the picture!


I will have another go, but first i have bigger problems, it seems even extracted files using 7z now turn automatically into Rar files and not the usual ones you find in your folders! all my files on my decktop now have 7z on them and are not the usual windoes looking file.

I've sorted my file problems thanks.

I will have to admit defeat with this emblem mod. I totally removed the original Fistfull of emblems from my mods file and just installed yours, i get no emblem of mine and only 12 of the original.

Im beat.

I,ve reloaded the original and all is fine now. i might read through your original procedure and make sure i do everything correctly, strange how it works fine for you!

Poacher886 02-09-11 05:26 PM

:doh::yeah: My god, finally i've got it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unbeliveably i was making many mistakes and by reading your original instructions about 5 pages back its worked!!!

Basically mistake No:

1. I was'nt disabling the fistfull mod first Doh!
2. I was just droping it in the pile and not copying a name of an existing file for it to replace (maybe this isn't necessary as someone said, but replacing U-201.dds with my file named the same has worked!.

Thanks for your patience everyone especially stoianm, i got there in the end.


Now, ive selected it as my new Emblem and equipted my boat with it, i then took a walk down the jetty to view it but my boat still has my old emblem on it? im guessing the new one will appear when i start a new patrol yes?

Also, thinking the bits aon the side of the emblem that i cut away to make it look a bit beaten have left a nice shinny white patch!, what im wanting to do, is colour those bits with a light crey similar to my U-boat to cover them, but im worried that if i open my file in Paint.net i will once again be faced with the size problem??

Here i do not understand:o - to chose a new emblem you must to be in bunker and after that you normaly go in the patrol - how you choosed the emblem and you say that after you will start a new patrol you will see the emblem. you are losing me here

Basically i am in the bunker. I have selected my Emblem and equipted my boat with it, it shows my emblem as the one selected in the upgrades panel.

I then came out of the upgrades panel and walked down the peir/jetty to look at my conning tower in the pen, but my old emblem is still on the boat!, what im thinking is when i start a new patrol (and teleport to boat) it will then show on my U-boat.

I've just taken a copy of my emblem and opened it in Paint.net. I made some adjustments to the cut away bits on the sides (coloured them shades of grey), then i saved with default dds settings (i.e i didn't touch anything) and once again my emblem is back to 32.1kb !!!!!


Remember this is a copy to test with, i have not screwed with the one in the game...thanks for the offer of doing it for me, but i dont want to have to bother you every time i want to do a new emblem, why is it that i cant seem to size it to 85.4kb regardless of leaving the sizes untouched??

What do i need to do?

Thanks
