I need a few pointers regarding a small mod I am trying to complete. I am trying to reduce the size of the the objective icon at start of career patrols on the nav map. I think it is too big and I wanted to make it at least 50% smaller.

I found the objectives.dds in data/menu/gui/career start. I converted it to a jpeg and reduced it in size by 50% and then converted it back to a dds file. It only shrunk the objective icon on the loading screen for career patrol start, the actual ingame nav map still showed the large objective icon. Also, the objective icon at in loading screen that DID shrink ended up just having a big black box around it where it was shrunk so even though the specific icon was smaller, the black box still took up the original space. I hope i explained that well.

One thing I was thinking was that I might have to reduce it's reading size in the menu_1024_768.ini . I know that the objectives.dds icon is read several times within the menu.file

any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. thnx a million
