[REL] CSP Magui Interface for SH5

What was solved is the RAOBF on/off, not the problems with the resolution.

Some years ago I made one more intense mod work for SH3 - ported all the gui to widescreen for the first time. So, I worked a lot with menu entries on SH3. All WS porting to SH3 was stuck at exactly 1360x768 because was much more easy to work on: we only needed to adjust one dimension (1024==>1360, as the other remains the same (768).

That time i noticed an obviously thing: the gui textures/images aren´t exactly portable between resolutions (and this is your problem here). They have a fixed size. If you use a major resolution than the one were the gui was molded, no problem, just smaller images/smaller dials, etc. But if you use minor resolution (my case now in relation of your gui) all the gui will be accomodate on the screen...but slight one over the other like you saw on the picture. So - unless you use a much small resolution - nothing is lose, nothing is out, but one over the other.

After that work I learn that for GUI mod purposes is better to project your GUI using a lesser monitor resolution ( a reasonable, compromisse one), this way it will fit in almost any resolution and you will have less headhatch trying to solve unevitable users´s problems...

The 1360x768 is the 720p in practice. At least try to make the GUI small on your 1080 (or major) monitor, this will guarantee that it will work in any resolution too. Obviously preserving the optical views for your taste, they can be adjusted later on players end for minor resolutions users; just put some instructions on a readme.

(It´s a honour to talk with you, you are a very polite guy, this is what make this community a must. And excuse me by my english...it´s bad and i don´t know how to express my self correctly in english.)

Thank you very much...your english is very good...

it is a honor to me/us that you are going to take part with your experience. That is what we need here...

This is all here a very big learning process and i think it will take still a very long time until we get all the possible things what can be done in sh5...

of course...i will make some changes here in this ui...as i told there will be slide in values to solve this problem...it is a function which is asked by a few more members...

Every Idea you have is very welcome...

Best Regards so far

Very awesome work!
Great!

But i have one problem with the UZO. The fire push button, doesn't work.

Is it correct? I did the torpedo preparation, like you described some post ago.
But it can't work.
Another news:
I make a translation of your menu in italian. (naturally For my use) I take the IT menu of TDW UI and your in english, so I translate the word.
The work was of the guys that help TDW not me, of course.

Only some words i can't translate, because I haven't the time.

Do the tools in this GUI support effective manual targeting such as OLC and MaGUI in SH3? I am ideally trying to find a GUI that has the same functional tools as OLC.

Thanks!

Thanks a lot, maestro!!
Everything’s fantastic and works perfect except one thing – with manual targeting the gyroangle arrow doesn’t move by mouse. Manual means you setting all the parameters by yourself. Like here

Whatever I do, the red torpedo shooting button doesn't work for me either.
Can anyone help?
