Jonz Draggable chronometer - problem - Help!

Reece · 03-20-06, 11:18 PM

Hi, when starting Silent Hunter I get a few errors "menu item not found" I think this is to do with the "menu_1024_768.ini" file.
I have updated the Dials.cfg & menu_1024_768.ini with the appropriate lines and made sure the line titles are numbered correctly, also placed the Chronometer.tga, Reflex.tga files in their correct places, I have only at this stage installed the Chronometer.
Could you please advise.

Many thanks,
Reece.

Sounds to me that an Item ID doesn't Match a ParentID either in your menu.ini file or in the Dials.cfg.

Can you post the Dials and menu parts you are trying to mod?

Could be a clash with other entries (Mods) prior to the Chronometer.

One problem that was encountered when editing files is a space at the end of lines. Check your entries to make sure there are no spaces at the end of any line.

hey I'm not in bed yet :P

I highlighted the bad part in orange.. your sequence is erronous there, probably badly pasted and you did not see the spacer. Put an enter before the [G3F, and continue the sequence without skipping it ( i288].... i289]...forth).

My glasses, I need my glasses!

Sheesh! how did I miss that!

Thanks Jonz!
Also thanks Samwolf, will watch that, although I didn't think that would make a difference.
Cheers.

Just found another error above:

[G3F I286]

Mat 0=data/menu/gui/layout/bkgr.tga
MatFlags=0x1
TexFmt=0x9
[G3F Ixxx]

I obviously missed these 2 entries as they have no line spacing like the others at the start of the menu item!
have edited & when I return to port will reinstall this mod!

Thanks again.
