@H.sie:
I've finally managed to try your mod with NYGM.
Unfortunately, it doesn't quite give the required result (see below, after my fitting instructions).
I made the changes in your 'DIY toolkit', adjusted for NYGM:
Number of fonts changed from 18 to 20 in menu_1024_768.ini with your two inserts as Font18=... and Font19=... at the end of the FONTS list).
Inserted by cut-and paste your items [G67 I683] to [G67 I686] (and renumbered all the remainder), and changed your example Font=19 to Font=18 and the Font=20 to Font=19. (The original [G67 I683] entry was identical to that also found with GWX3, which I think is what you are using for your DIY example instructions.)
Checked en_menu.txt has entry 589 correct (cut-and-pasted from your DIY kit). Added as new your entry 4999, again cut-and-pasted from your DIY kit.
Installed both these files into the menu folder of your original JSGME-ready took-kit, and installed them with JSGME.
After running SH3, starting from base with 100% hull integrity, I get the following on top right of the crew menu:
black rectangle - red rectangle - black rectangle.
The label 'hull integrity' (item 4999) does not appear.
As a test, I changed your file 'rota.tga' from red to blue colour, and re-tested.
Now I get the following:
black rectangle - blue rectangle - black rectangle.
After sustaining increasing hull damage in depth-charge attacks, the blue rectangle never changed colour.
It seems that the NYGM menu_1024_768.ini file does not register the figures for % hull integrity for some reason (maybe due to stretched screen monitor size, on 20 inch monitor?), nor does it register entry 4999.
If you can think of an explanation, please let me know, because this mod is obviously an excellent idea.
If you want to try this out for yourself, you can easily download NYGM from my signature. Be sure to install NYGM2.5, NYGM 3.2, NYGM 3.3C in that order, to ensure you have the latest files. If you want only to examine the most recent menu_1024_768.ini file, just download NYGM 3.2.
Stiebler.
