SH4 Tool Tips Mods Release 1
This mod was made for Silent Hunter 4, with
Wolves Of The Pacific U-Boat Missions. (v.1.5)
I suppose this might work with other versions, stock 1.4
and mods like RFB and RSRD etc. Not tested thought.
If not its pretty easy to do yourself the needed modifications.
Just apply new images and (if needed) fix the pointer placing in Mouse.cfg.
This changes 3 files for normal and 4 files for the bigger version.
There are 2 version:
Normal
- 3 new images just the same size
no need to tinker Mouse.cfg
Big
- 3 new images and the Mouse.cfg is
modified fir bigger sizes
Wat?
New BIG images are 512x512 size, double size. This might slow down low end PC's
and if that happens, try the Normal version since they got the stock
size images (256x256).
Check the Pics folder.
Why?
Readability. Now I can actually see the 1 degree lines
while plotting. I got 24' monitor running 1920x1200
and the stock images gets smaller with bigger resolution.
How?
Paint dot net. With some plugins.
Notepad++ as my main text editor.
Couple liters coffee.
:D
Usage:
Use Jonesoft Generic Mod Enabler (JSGME)
http://www.users.on.net/~jscones/software/products-jsgme.html
... or backup the files manually.
Not to be used for commercial purposes.
You can make it bigger/faster/better and/or
mix it with other modulations,
just give credit where credit is due.
Have fun.
