[REL] new radio bitmap

castorp345 · 02-28-08, 08:25 AM

hi folks,

'was playing around with image files in photoshop for another project and was 'inspired' to replace our venerable UserRadio.dds with one [that's more historicaly accurate?] based on a CRV-46155 set (see here for more good info ==> http://www.radioblvd.com/WWII-PostWar%20Hamgear.htm ). This is a simple replacement for the original UserRadio.dds file in the data\menu\gui folder, so remember to backup your orginal in the event you don't like this one. All the original functionality is retained, though i've removed the appearance of the original play controls (you'll still get the tool tips however, just in case).

get it here if you like ==> http://rapidshare.com/files/95612817/UserRadio.dds.html

preview ==>

and with Fred8615's JSGME packaging and Tei's fine rework of it with visual play controls ==>

which you can get here ==> http://files.filefront.com/Radio+RAK.../fileinfo.html

cheers

Thanks, Castorp

That stock radio graphic was getting on my nerves. Since I use the radio so much, I'll enjoy having something realistic to look at

very cool.......

fred8615 · 02-28-08, 10:34 AM

I love it! I'm going to create a JSGME version so I don't have to worry about backing up the original. Is it okay with you if I post that on my Filefront page?
