[???] Is there a menu_1024_768.ini editor
 

As it says... If not, I've already started making one.

Do you think I might be a bit late, and can it be ported to SH5 ?
:)

Notepad.exe :haha:

I am fairly certain that there is one. My HD crashed and I lost a lot of stuff
(Back up: what me worry?:oops:) and I think there was an editor for this file.

What exactly do you mean by an editor?

For editing, I use notepad.

What I've wanted to see for a while I(since mods started appearing) is a decent way to compare and merge two different .ini files.

Was jimimadrid's SH4 Menu Maker what you were thinking of?
:hmmm:

YES

I'm thinking more along the lines of making and editor than you can:---

1) Insert and remove whole 'modules' [Gxx.. things and reorder the IDs at will
2) A DDS viewer (not editor) than allows you to view the game screen, position/select your pages, images and automatically update the zone, zoom, etc.. parameters.
3) any other ideas that spring to mind..

:)

this rocks...
WinMerge

:hmmm: wonder if the menu editor from SH5 can be used? http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=163118

May be worth the $5 a SH5 license costs...

Looks like that might be it... I'll just have to wait for SH5 to hit the bargain-bin then.

I agree that WinMerge is great for file comparisons and merging.

JTxE.exe works great, too.

Oooooh!

New toys! :D



Thanks, y'all.

PLEASE YES DO ITTTTTT :wah::wah:

OK.. If you insist :)

Besides Zamboni's page, is there any other info available on the SH series page interface. It'll be nice to have all the stuff available.. just in case.

Thanks

Yes, karamazovnew studied and documented extensively the menu.ini matters when creating his own mod. He even released some templates to reposition numbers and such. But an editor that would allow to drag and drop or at least to modify manually the numbers for the positions of items while seeing how they move and where they go to would be a blessing. There is still much that can be done regarding the interface, for example I would like to rework the useless attack map into a full screen TDC. But even with the help of Karamazov's documents it is too overwhelming for me.
