[WIP] New Dial Layout for Chrono

Thanks for the comments.

Captain Cox - I will try and make these changes at some point, but my image editing skills are a little lacking. Plus I think it is quite tricky to change the code to compensate for the new postion of the start & close buttons.

Redwine - Changing the start angle and increments for the new dial is actually quite simple. It is a straight forward change in Dials.Cfg. However repositioning the hands was a lot more complicated. This was a lot more down to trial and error - as I am not sure what all the data within the menu1024_768.ini entries does. Thanks again for your work - as I have just mentioned my artistic skills are not the best.

I have uploaded this Beta version to

http://files.filefront.com//;7229470;;/

I have included in the readme the changes that I have made to menu1024_768.ini and dials.cfg.

I must stress that this is largely untested, esplecially at large resolutions. I would greatly welcome any feedback. Also if anyone knows what each value in:

Pos=154,-177,4,4
Zone= 566 591 3 3 0 1 0x29020001 0.5 -0.525 0x29020006 -0.5 0.5 0 0

represents then that would be great. So far, in the example above, I understand 3 3 & 0x29020001 0.5 -0.525 0x29020006 of the Zone line
