Full screen nav map?

kaa · 08-28-06, 11:01 AM

Hi
Is it possible to make the nav map 1024x768 (full screen like the attack map) for use with the sliding console? Getting rid of the Leer.tga file and its entries in menu_1024_768.ini doesn't help, changing map resolution in Maps.cfg and resizing the graphic file StrTactMap.tga doesn't do much either. The map seems to display well but there is always this grey area at the bottom of the screen, exactly 1024x112 pixels which I can't get rid of.

This is how it looks.

Any ideas?

I've read something about a file that displays under there, but can't for the life of me remember which one it was... leer something maybe?

That's why the Leer.tga is there, to my knowledge the navmap size is set.

Have never tried changing to full screen, may give it a go later but tied up for now.

Cheers.

Map size can be customized via maps.cfg file - if you look closely at the picture in my previous post you'll see that the map actually displays in 1024x768 with part of it covered by the grey area on the bottom which prevents from using full screen.

So far I've managed to expand the map vertically by about 30 pixels to make better use of the avaible area. I've also made the map tools bar, chronometer and compass rose hide a bit further.

Default map:
