First timer using ARB Widescreen, last night I stalked a merchant gather all my data on him by speed matching and slowly steering till I matched his course. I set up a great 90° shot and when I go to press the unlock tdc button on the tdc and set all my values for my eel it wont let me switch it to red so I can manually adjust the values. It wants you to id the ship with the rec manual and wants you to use the little clipboard menu to gather all data. Do you have to set up the tdc like this? Seems kind of gamey, I want to manually set up my tdc. Am I missing something or is this by design? I'm running NYGM super mod, I downloaded ThePrody's version of ARB for NYGM from his mediafire. I love this gui but if I cant unlock the tdc and manually set up my torpedoes by eyeing it I can't get into this gui.

Have you tried clicking on the red/green light button in TDC?

Yes, that button is not working. Was wondering if there's something I need to do first to be able to press it. I know with the attack disc you need to click on the weapons officer tab and then hover over the top of the screen and then it will show up. Was wondering if there was something,similar with that tdc button

Try Ctrl+T

or Can you post a link to Prody's Mod and I will take a look at the commands file as I don't use his version.

"'binpatch' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Fail.

Press any key to continue . . ."

or

"Offset out of range: 0xa5dc6

Fail.

Press any key to continue . . ."

This problem goes for every patch of fix that requires me running a batch file
Can anyone help me with this issue?
Hi Niccerman, did you ever manage to solve this? I am running into the same issues.

Regards,
Nicolai

Has anyone tried installing rudewarrior's Just Follow Orders! mod with this GUI?


Any recommendations on the changes to menu_1024_768.ini regarding the 6 templates added by the JFO Mod? Specifically the entries for x/y position and x/y pixel width/height (Pos=a, b, c, d)?

Default Using arrow keys to move on map

Hi,

I have been playing with Magui for a while, then came across this gorgeous beast! I absolutely love it but have one slight problem...

In Magui, you can use the arrow keys to move the map when plotting courses etc. This saves from having to zoom out then zoom in again on a guestimated spot. I've tried the arrow keys wit this mod but it doesn't work. Am I missing something or is this not a feature for this mod?

Thanks!

I experience the same when moving the map around with high time compression rates... 256 is fine, but 512 and above cause that problem...

IMHO it’s the processor overcharged by calculating … the more you TC on nav map, the more your processor is stressed, furthermore when action is near by
Thousands of calculations X 1024 times … just imagine …
Even good I7 latest generation are overcharged (SH3 is not even optimized for those processors due to its age)
Not to say the more you TC, the more SH3 can be unstable and brings sides issues (like time & weather slipping off, planes never showing etc)
To realize the complexity, just open up a career patrol in your mission editor...

Greetings, for some reason I couldn't get this working. It is still 1024x768 and weird looking too. Tried multiple times, before and after-with and without hardcode fix to exe mod.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi lyciummusic are you setting your screen resolution through your desktop by right klicking or are you using your GPU to set your display

Thanks for fast reply, blackswan40!

I was actually using windows desktop resolution but I also changed gpu software settings like the picture you sent, but there is no change.

However game works properly with high resolution 1920x1080 if I set my desktop to 1024x768 edit main.cfg to fulscreen.
