Radar

[Pulverizer]

The thing with the white, green and red boxes. Where's the resource defined. I've combed through resource.cpp twice and no joy. I've seen some addon change the pos.

I had a brilliant idea that I wanna try out. Make the innermost box the size of the screen, so that the radar blips match your 3D view

Sorry but i absolutely don't understand what you mean... ***could you be more specific ?

[Extremeus Decimus]

I believe he is refering to the Box which appears at the top centre of the screen, when inside of a vehicle, for instance a helicopter or armoured vehicle, white represents destroyed/off, green represents friendly and red represents enemy.

to the OP, sorry I can't help you with your original question.

Ok ok, i'm not blind !! ***

You can find this in the config.bin (and not in the resource file), somewhere here :

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">class CfgInGameUI
{
access=1;
imageCornerElement=&#34;cornern.paa&#34;;
colorBackground&#91;&#93;={0,0,0,0.8};
colorBackgroundCommand&#91;&#93;={0,0,0,0.3};
colorBackgroundHelp&#91;&#93;={0,0,0,0.2};
colorText&#91;&#93;={0.8,0.8,0.8,1};

class SideColors
{
colorFriendly&#91;&#93;={0.0,0.6,0.0,1};
colorEnemy&#91;&#93;={0.7,0.1,0.0,1};
colorNeutral&#91;&#93;={0.8,0.8,0.8,1};
colorCivilian&#91;&#93;={0.8,0.8,0.8,1};
colorUnknown&#91;&#93;={0.8,0.6,0.0,1};
};
[/QUOTE]

and a later after here :

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">class TacticalDisplay&#58;SideColors
{
left=0.24;
top=0.053;
width=0.52;
height=0.1;
colorCamera&#91;&#93;={0.1,0.1,0.1,0.4};

class Cursor
{
width=0.015;
height=0.02;
color&#91;&#93;={0.8,0.8,0.8,1};
};
};
[/QUOTE]

I guess that&#39;s all, but maybe not.

[Pulverizer]

Sweet. I had no idea there&#39;s UI defined in config.cpp too, was loosing my mind searching for that and a few other things. Thank you, good sir

[Pulverizer]

Just as I suspected, it is indeed quite neat (download for xvid quality).

It&#39;s reasonably accurate but doesn&#39;t scale with zoom. Still does give a better situational awareness. Here&#39;s the settings I used:
<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">
class TacticalDisplay
{
colorFriendly&#91;&#93; = {White, 0.4};
colorEnemy&#91;&#93; = {White, 0.4};
colorNeutral&#91;&#93; = {White, 0.4};
colorCivilian&#91;&#93; = {White, 0.4};
colorUnknown&#91;&#93; = {White, 0.4};

left = -1.3;
top = -0.15;
width = 3.6;
height = 1.3;
colorCamera&#91;&#93; = {0, 0, 0, 0.3}; // the innermost box
class Cursor
{
width = 0.0;
height = 0.0;
color&#91;&#93; = {White, 0};
};
};

Hey Pulverizer,

I think you&#39;re on to something with this. The transparency helps not to distract you from game. The fullscreen night vision looks good too, but I suspect that is from running FDF mod?

The only thing I would do is leave the default target colors insted of making them all the same. I wonder...could you remove all but enemy target blips? That&#39;s all we really need on the radar...right?

[Sanctuary]

Very impressive, never suspected this was possible.

[CameronMcDonald]

Heh, quite cool that. I wonder if you can find a way around the problem re: scaling with zoom.
