HUD Display Issue?

I went into the HUD directory to move the toolbars to the bottom of the screen, as in the pre 1.09 update. It looked like they already were, and the section that places them in a vertical stack is commented out.

Except they still display on the left of the screen in a vertical stack.

Is there another file I need to edit to make this happen?

Do you have an additional copy of default/hud/default.txt in your override folder that might be being used instead?

Your default.txt file should look like this for that section:

Code:

//Toolbar position 0,0, (1 to anchor to minimap or 0 for no anchor)

//Default toolbars overlap and enabled via tabs/keys

//ToolbarsPos=0,0,1

//ForceAllToolbarsOn=FALSE

//HelmToolbarOffset=0,0

//DiveToolbarOffset=0,0

//SensorToolbarOffset=0,0



//Force all toolbars on in bottom horizontal row

ToolbarsPos=0,0,0

ForceAllToolbarsOn=TRUE

HelmToolbarOffset=331,-346

DiveToolbarOffset=640,-346

SensorToolbarOffset=953,-346



//Force all toolbars on in right vertical stack, anchored to mini-map

//ToolbarsPos=0,0,1

//ForceAllToolbarsOn=TRUE

//HelmToolbarOffset=0,0

//DiveToolbarOffset=0,71

//SensorToolbarOffset=0,142

Ahhh..
I feel stupid...

I was editing the layout.txt file and not the default.txt file...

Since I had a bunch of 'enhancements', uninstalled the game and reinstalled with the new update, since most of the scenario mods would not work with the new update. Clean slate so to speak..

who produced Cold waters? Judging by these complaints about bugs, it must have been Ubisoft?????

These bugs mainly concern heavily modded installs. Here you see devs helping people to fix their games which isnt something you see daily.

Not sure if this is sarcastic or being a troll.
