problem with tactical green mod

panzerschutze12ss · 04-19-07, 03:59 AM

I am having a problem with the Tactical Green Mod fromVenatore. My program runs fine before I enable it with the Gen. Mod Enabler. But after I lose part of the text when placing a position mark on the map. I get the cross but the lettering below it which should read ( Mark 1 ) comes out looking like ( M 1 ). This is the list of mods which I have installed

GWX-Main movie-‘Das Boot’
GWX-No Medals on Crew
GWX-Stay Alert _crew fix_v1c
Medium depth charge shake
GWX102 + Integrated Orders + TDC + 6Simfeeling
Tikigod’s 3-D Clean Big Dials (Glass Reflections)
GWX- Assisted Plotting Mod v.2 corrected
The Tactical Green Mod

I am also running GWX 1.03, SH3 Commander v2.7.0.130 rolled back, and SH3Gen v0.8.2 .

I don’t know what would be causing this issue. The mod changes the text and integrated orders like it should but is also effecting my map icon labels for position marks. If someone could help me with this issue it would be appreciated greatly. If you need more information just let me know.

All of the Tactical Green files are in "data/menu/gui/layout" and "data/menu/fonts" folders.

I don't think that the files included in the mod even touch the map.

However I've looked at Asissted Plotting and it seems to affect "Contline.tga" and "Dashline.tga" by changing them from black to white.

I'm not sure what these files do but they are the only ones that you have installed that I don't also have installed and I don't see your problem.

Try disabling Assisted Plotting. It is the only mod you have enabled which targets the navmap.

Ok I tried taking out Assisted Plotting and re-entering Tactical Green and same thing happens??? I also noticed that the readout for a contact (ship type, course, speed) is also messing up.

I take Tactical Green out and everything is back to normal.

VERY WEIRD

Very strange indeed. I've been fooling around with Tactical Green lately so I'm starting to get to know my way around the files.

You say that "ark" from Mark disappear? Is that the only issue?

If Tactical Green affected that then it still doesn't make sense that only some of the letters go missing.

panzerschutze12ss · 04-19-07, 08:34 AM

yes just the "ark" out of Mark 1

I'm using SH3 Gen also and the intel that is placed on the map does the same thing. Instead of ?Destroyer?. I get ?D ?. Same thing with the info you get from a contact that you have. Only the first and last bit of text shows.

Take Tactical Green out and it all comes back to normal.

Are all of your tactical green files exactly as they should be? If you have photoshop you should open them and see if they are in fact entirely green. The text is on an invisible alpha map.

If Tac Green affects those letters then they should be green, not missing.
