Chrono is hidden
 

Hi guys,

Sorry to bother you all with this, but I'm a bit stuck and could use a hand.

I'm running TMO and can't see the chrono on my monitor (3440x1440). I understand you have to change some values in the .ini file, but I can't seem to work it out. The frustrating thing is that I did this successfully a few years ago.

I also seem to be able to find five different .ini files when I search in the SHIV directory, so I'm not even sure I'm changing the right one.

I understand the right section to change in the .ini is this:

[G29 I2]
Name=Chrono
Type=1026;Menu group
ItemID=0x29020000
ParentID=0x29000000
Pos=-31,0,312,300
Zone= -31 768 312 300 0 1 0x29000000 0 0 0x29020000 -0.1 0 0 0
Color=0xFFFFFFFF

If anyone could baby me through this is would be appreciated. Also please note I've tried any and all solutions from other forum topics.

menu 1024_768
 

I believe you must be looking for menu 1024_768 file

Here's the path you need in the SH4 directory: Data/Menu/menu 1024_768

I'd suggest you copy this file and save it as "ORIGINAL menu 1024_768" before making any changes. Open the file, use the "Find" tool under "edit" at top left and type [G29 I2], press find next and you should go right to the section you're looking for. I'd suggest any line that needs changing, just place a ";" (semi-colon) in front of the line (see example below), then type your new line right under the old line which you can leave because the ; negates that line.

Below is an example of the particular section in my menu 1024_768 file

See the ";" before Zone=
Somebody, some time for some reason has previously changed the Zone= line in my file.

[G29 I2]
Name=Chrono
Type=1026;Menu group
ItemID=0x29020000
ParentID=0x29000000
Pos=412,0,312,300
;Zone= 412 768 234 225 0 1 0x29000000 1.23 0 0x29020000 -1 0 -260 -280
Zone= 412 768 234 225 0 1 0x29000000 0.683594 0 0x29020000 0 0 0 -10
Color=0xFFFFFFFF

Hope you find this helpful, let us know.

Thanks friend! That's done the trick :Kaleun_Salute:

You say "my monitor (3440x1440)" - is that its "native" resolution? Do you have Windows set to the "recommended" resolution, and match that with the game? Or is your test too small in the game when you set it up that way? :salute:
