Cool! Take a bow NefariousKoel!

No more hunting for, "that key"

Cheers,
:know:

Those 3 guys did all the work I just added to it. :yep:

I liked some stuff in numerous mods but it seemed like each one was missing a button or two that another one had. I just threw them all in.

For example: RFB had the Run Silent & Battle Stations on all tabs which I always liked (along with some other additions) and TM had Range at Current Speed (for example). I wanted my cake and eat it too!

Plus, double clicking on the Nav map and then going back to the previous tab I was on (back and forth in a short span) started getting annoying, so I added it to a few useful tabs. Less clicks = me happy.

What screen resolutions will this work in?

I believe 1024x width is the only one it won't be kind to resolution-wise.

I made it using 1280x but 1152x and up should be good to go.

Any chances of getting a version with the stock order bar graphics? :)

I'm looking into it. Right now, with a stock look, there are a few buttons that don't have a symbol on them at all.

Is this like integrated orders mod for sh3? where it maps macro keys to actual buttons?

Question
 

Is it possable to easily change the color of the order's bar to like a Brass color? OR is it very complicated?

For instance I like using the Shinny Border's Hud from Jimmadred and was wondering if the outer ring texture for that can be applied to the order's bar.

Hmm, that's weird. I just did a quick and not that dirty version of this orders bar mod of yours but with the stock colors. No missing symbols. Gonna make a few adjustments in it and probable release

Go for it Misfit. I miss having stock colors with green lamps mod too and need the extra buttons.

LV- I'm sure it's possible to change the colors and such but I'm definitely no gfx person.

neather am I to tell the truth
 

I know what looks good and works right for the game and how to manipulate the numbers to get what I want for effect's but when it comes to making textures or making new DDS files and adding the layers to them so so forth I might as well be a 5 year old trying to do it for the first time.

He he, actually I hated to green lamp enoght to have it removed from my system a long time :lol: But making an additional version which includes the green lamp mod shouldn't be a too big of a hassle

It's okay, I just finished fixing the classic style with green lamp mod. It uses the RFB style buttons. :rock: Uploading now after I revise the ReadMe.

Okay here is the classic style all in one orders bar for those of you who want the gray bar with yellow/green buttons.

I had to change the menu.txt file for new tooltips but everything still runs fine - if you install over RFB or TM, the main menu will be back to stock text but there will be more tooltips for the new orders and I also included Duci's great torpedo tooltip text. Also used the RFB-style Silent Running button (the cool SHHH one). :|\\

JSGME ready
