Feasibility to Merge GUI Mods

HootOwl · 06-07-20, 05:33 PM

So I really like some things about Ahnenerbe/ARB's 1920x1080 GUI, but I also really like all the historical accuracy Hitman put in to his GUI mod. So how feasible would it be to merge the two together? Also, I'm assuming that running one on top of the other in JSGME wouldn't work in the least.

Two different resolutions. For Hitman's to work (I'm also a fan) at higher res, it's various files would need to be modified to do so.

Re your JSGME question, not a chance.

Any idea how much of a pain we're talking about to get Hitman's optics into a real WS Format?

That would be a large project requiring considerable knowledge and time to do.

Any idea what it would take? I imagine it would be mostly fiddling around in the menu.ini.

That's one part. The easy part. And the dials.cfg. The other would be resizing and repositioning all the dials, buttons, needles, gauges, screens, etc.

John is right

A huge work on the table even if you are familiar to those files.
But it could be doable if you are ready to loose your health

What are you doing for the next 2 years? If it's just you, and you want to undertake such an exercise, don't make any plans for anything else...
