Hi all,

I'm trying to set up my new installation with Conus00's widescreen mod for GWX - so far it looks great, but since the big slide-out compass wasn't included I wanted to add it back in. Poked around here and found some info, after which I added what I think is all the necessary stuff from the GWX menu_1024_768.ini and Dials.cfg files into the files in Conus00's mod and renumbered stuff where needed.

I edited the following bits of the menu ini

[G3F I300]
Name=FLB Sale`s 6 Anzeigen, Kompass
Type=1026;Menu group
ItemID=0x3F0C0000
ParentID=0x3F000000
Pos=678,476,344,344 (changed 678 to 1014)
Color=0xFFFFFFFF
HorizSlide=344

[G3F I301]
Name=Group feedback
Type=1026;Menu group
ItemID=0x3F010020; 0x3F010000
ParentID=0x3F000000
Pos=678,476,344,344 (changed 678 to 1014)
Color=0xFFFFFFFF
HorizSlide=344

and got the compass to appear in the right place in the WS display. BUT when I click on it, nothing happens - the game doesn't respond by changing course (the little compass dial at the bottom right works fine).

So... what else do I need to edit or add to make it actually WORK?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

EDIT: Never mind, I think I figured it out.
