please change hud block flags to old version

Post by setra »

hi

i like this game very much.i owner of cold war and mods.when i see the flag over units it is very bad looking for me . i want older graphic.when zoom in closely they change normal but i am playing usually zooming out. so please add feature to remove them..want to see unit graphic instead of flags.

secondly
i want highres little darked textures like cold war.greens on 1936 are very light color .modder did it on cold war i hope atleast modders will do on ultimate game..

Could you post some screenshots of what you mean?

The HUDs could be modded for '36 or Ultimate, I'd just need the time to make the mod.

Back up your files
delete HUD_UNIT8, HUD_UNIT9, HUD_UNIT10
copy HUD_UNIT7 as 8, 9 and 10.

There are 3 kinds of huds, HUD_UNIT0 to 7, 8 to 10 and 11+. It's all done by having different files at different zoom levels.

I'm still not sure what you mean about the green

You could replace the SR1936 terrain textures with those from SRCW if you own both.

I'll try and make the HUDs mod for you at some point, bump the thread in a few days if I forget.

copy TER002, TER003, TER004 and TER005 from SRCW to SR1936. That should have a visible change.

Just a heads up, I tried this, and noticed that for every copy of HUD_UNIT7, you need to edit the actual files (notepad) and replace all instances of HUD_UNIT7 with HUD_UNIT8, HUD_UNIT9 and HUD_UNIT10 in their respective file. This replaces the stacks with the close-zoom flags and bars as intended. :-)
