[REL] DT's Mess Hall Sink Mod Combo
 

DT's Mess Hall Sink Mod Combo for v1.4

• CaptainCox

• OakGroove

• Payoff

• cdrake66

• Kapt.Klaus

What is it and where can I get it?

This is a large combination mod of the above mods (with additions and modifications by me).

Now available - v1.4 compatible version (only changes made were to menu 1024_768.ini) - MetalHUD workaround still works with new version

Now available - workaround to use jaketoox's metal hud (or any HUD mod that only changes the HUD graphics) with MHSMC

What did I do?

Put all these mods together in one package (including the necessary changes to .cfg and .ini files so that the mods could co-exist) Ported CaptainCox's map table graphics into OakGrooves realistic interiors graphics. Added several new buttons (including icons) on the various HUD stations. Added an 11th HUD station. Added buttons to the camera station to help setting up and using the custom interior cameras. Made slight color changes to the buttons on the HUD stations. Inluded documentation from all of the above mods.

What does it look like?

What if I don't want the nomograph or I want a metric version?

Go into the mods \Data\Menu folder and open the menu_1024_768.ini file with notebook (or your favorite text editor) and remove section [G31 I28] (for v1.3) or [G31 I59] (for v1.4) to remove the nomograph. If you want to replace it with a metric version, then replace the Nomograph.dds file in the mods \Data\Menu\Gui\Layout folder with an appropriately sized image of a metric nomograph.

What do I do now?

Make sure you read through the documentation (especially on the custom internal cams mod). Place the DT's Mess Hall Sink Mod Combo folder in your mods folder and jsgme it! Then enjoy! And, if you haven't done so already, go to the posts for each persons mod and thank them for all the fine work they have done.

Anyone who cares to do so may use this work (modified or not) in a mod combo of their own as long as it is a non-commercial endeavor and proper credit is given to all of the individuals who did the original modifications.

Looks awesome! Thanks!

Yes, very nice!
 

Any chance it will work with TM 1.3A by Ducimus? Probably not, might cause indigestion? Too many good things. :hmm:

@Camaero Glad you like it!

@08x15 Sorry to say, but TM and this mod both modify some of the same files and it appears that some of the changes are not the kind that could be resolved very easily.

I forgot (and will rectify that right now) to mention in my post that anyone that wants to modify this work or include it in any combination is welcome to do so in any non-commercial endeavor as long as credit is given to all the folks that made the original mods that I combined.

I can't get the gramamphone to work. I select it from the menu and nothing. Where is that pulldown map found?

There is an icon on the hud for the pulldown map. When you press that, the pulldown map appears top left hand corner. At the bottom right hand corner of the pull down map you'll find the buttons for the gramophone.

I selected the Gramaphone on the hud, I guess this is really for the pull down map? Well, can't find anything to pull down for the map and therefore also no gramaphone.

Is there a picture of the icon or map pulldown location? Is this fully functional with this mod or do I need to add another mod in addition to this one?
HELP?

Some ppl seem to have this problem with the "pull down map mod" I am not sure why!!!!???? As it is the same as the previous versions of this mod, and not "new" code for v1.3.
The texture used is pretty "big" due to resolution...maybe that have something to do with it...but not sure as I said.

I am guessing it's a screen resolution problem, perhaps. What resolution are you running the game at, Flybywire? If you are running smaller than 1280x960 try bumping it up to at least there. I can't duplicate the problem at 1280x960. If you run smaller than that, you're not going to get all the buttons on the HUD stations, anyway.

I am running the game at 1920 X 1200.

Cant get that map or gramaphone at all after selecting the icon on the hud.

Unload the mod with JSGME. Download this file
http://files.filefront.com/UserGramo.../fileinfo.html

Unrar it and Put "UserGramophone" in to
Data\Menu\Gui
in the Mod.

Load the mod with JSGME

And see if it shows up. This file is much smaller then the one in the Mod, just as a test.

Thanks, CC. My next step was going to be to ask how Flybywire installed the mod and if the gramophone works when the mod is uninstalled. Might help, too, if we knew which (if any) other mods are installed.

in the resolution im playing the game ...

it doens fit ...

Mess Hall Sink?
 

Great Work - Just a nit on the name: Soldiers and Marines have mess halls. Submarines have a crew's mess and the sink is actually in the galley:)

:up: NUC, I stand corrected. I'm embarassed to admit that I was a sailor a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away (no wait, that's not right) and still didn't get the terminology right. Even though the only thing I ever sailed was an island in the Aleutians, I should have remembered the correct terminology since I did a stint in the galley (doesn't pay to piss off the CO:rotfl: ). I guess my memory isn't what it used to be. Now, what were we talking about anyway?
