Life just got a whole heck of a lot easier

Being as color blind as you can get, i love this tool. The stock and some of the other mod colors are too similar to me to see (green-red-yellow), so now i can use the shapes and very different colors to help out. =) very nice.

now if i could only figure out how to add the ID-SHIP command to the bar to id ships id be set.

Had to uninstall all my mods to install the Tokyo Express Mission, so I ran a few experiments:

Uninstalled all mods; installed just MyMenu; ran the game...still messed up.

Downloaded the new version of SH4 Menumaker; installed it; ran the program and saved the default menu without making any changes; installed just MyMenu; ran the game...still messed up.

So it isn't any other mods messing it up. It just doesn't like me.

Mighty thanks!!

Jimi any ideas why we are getting the messed up graphics on the buttons? If I uninstall with JSGME everything works fine again. I even unloaded the metal hud mods and it didn't help. Open for suggestions.

@kirby

your ordersbar.cfg works correct on my system (only problem with the broken words in your textcopy)


1280*1024 on a blank SH4 1.4


I've made a test file for you. It uses another Iconfile. only unpack in the mods folder and run it via jsgme.

I cannot imagine why you and fred get this trouble with the icons. They are well defined in the ordersbar.cfg. And both ordersbar worked fine on my system.:hmm:



Sorry for the delay but i'm still working on a 1.5 version of the menumaker.

could this be a screen res scaling issue??
i'd be curious to know if fred & kirby experience the same problem under different screen resolutions?
:hmm:

in any event, works wonderfully on my install...
noch wieder, herzlichen dank, jimimadrid!

jimi, can you check your download link for your newest release, and if possible, add it to a zip file? Every time I try to download it, my antivirus program pops up, and even when I do disable it, it won't let me open the file after I download it.

This is what pops up. Telling it to run the application does nothing:

@Luke

Done. Look first post.
