As I'm making changes for RFB, I'm commenting the ini file so anyone coming after can wade through it easier. What I was hoping for was being able to build a reference sheet for the community. Different mods touch different sections of the file so some people know more about certain sections than others.
I'm not looking to build a tutorial, but a cross reference of
Location = what it affects
or
[G29 I9]= small minute hand that starts when stopwatch button pushed
I'm not asking for a write up on what all the varialbles do, I just want what they are- especially for the poorly described ones.
Here's a really good example
G26= Attack scope page
G28= Page UZO
G29= Page clock
G2B= Page obs scope
Now under each one of these you have
[G26 I131]
Name= Estim Sec
[G28 I112]
Name= Estim Sec
[G28 I114]
Name= Estim Sec
[G26 I131]
Name= Estim Sec
[G29 I5]
Name= Estim Sec
[G29 I12]
Name= Estimated Sec
[G2B I28]
Name= Estim Sec
See what I mean?
So, because I've messed with one of them, I added a comment so the section looks like this:
[G29 I5]
;large colored second hand that displays estimated seconds to torpedo impact
Name=Estimated Second
Type=1031;Stat bmp array
In another I added
[G29 I12]
;Small second hand needle shows estimated seconds to torpedo impact- not used in this mod as tracked with large second hand
Name=Estim Sec
Type=1031;Stat bmp array
ItemID=0x29020004
ParentID=0x29020000
Pos=152,-195,10,60
Zone= 564 573 10 60 0 1 0x29020007 0.5 -0.5 0x29020004 -0.5 0.5 0 0
Color=0xFFFFFF00
; makes this transparent
At any rate, just asking for a small bit of help.
Ducimus, since you like to answer questions
Can you list what you feel are the 10 most obscure ones in the ini file you've messed with? I figure you've been into more pieces of the file than anyone else.
The reason for giving the rev number of the ini file the parameters are from is exactly what Ducimus said. I can look at the entries under that version, run winmerge and if the parameter moved, I'll know where it moved from or to.
The idea is to build a reference for the entire modding community, not just for me. Since Neal left the modding tools thread stickied, I'll add a link to a downloadable file there. So any input would be appreciated
Thanks ahead of time. (I'll keep bumping this every few days for a few weeks to remind people)
