[von hally]

Hi All

my bino's dont have any bearing indicator at the top when i look through them...i know this is for realism sake...but would like the old ones back for quickle reccying multiple targets....does anyone have old style in jsgme format?

I haven't the original ones, but i can give you the one from WAC.
Where you can see the Hands, and also the bearing line.
My Folder coming with the Tga.files, and the menu.ini instruction how to integrate it.

Also my whole Mod Competition can be found on the Link below my Signature.

EDIT: It can be that the red target cross reapears while yousing the Handed Bino.
If you don't like it:

= Find this block:

[G27 I12]
Name=Viewport
Type=1030;Static bmp
ItemID=0x27000001
ParentID=0x27000000
Pos=32,730,960,586
Color=0xFFFFFF00
Materials=1
Display=2;Linear
Mat 0=data/menu/gui/layout/bkgr.tga
Crop 0=0,0,4,4
MatFlags=0x1
TexFmt=0x9

= Just set a semicolon ";" before this line:
;Pos=32,730,960,586

= then it looks so:

[G27 I12]
Name=Viewport
Type=1030;Static bmp
ItemID=0x27000001
ParentID=0x27000000
;Pos=32,730,960,586 --------!!!(semicolon set there)!!!
Color=0xFFFFFF00
Materials=1
Display=2;Linear
Mat 0=data/menu/gui/layout/bkgr.tga
Crop 0=0,0,4,4
MatFlags=0x1
TexFmt=0x9

To get marks in the binoculars, you need to change the Bearing2 file under: data/menu/gui

Copy the Bearing file which has 5-degree marks and then rename it Bearing2. Paste the new Bearing2 file into the Gui directory. You should now have marks in the binos. Remember to backup all your files.

Or, if you use JSGME, make a mod with this path:
(mod name)/data/Menu/Gui/Bearing2

and then install.

RaptOr, in the Menu.ini instructions included with the Handed Bino mod, you show what to do with G27 I1 thru G27 I7 and then skip over to G27 I13. Does this mean that we are to make no changes to G27 I8 thru G27 I12? Thx for this clarification. Cheers EmeAzul

There's an easier way.

Open the 1024_768 Menu.ini in notepad and press CTRL+F. Search for a file called Bearing2.tga (there's only 1 entry) and rename it to Bearing.tga. Save.

Done.
