UI texture changes
« on: March 06, 2011, 03:33:21 »
I'm currently trying to change the UI scheme a bit but I've run into an issue where I can't seem to find several of the UI textures. I've gone through and checked what I believe are all the UI files but can't find the following parts:



The bottom frame border of the ship list, blue border in the ship panel and the left bracket & gradient in the manual box area seem to be evading my dradis scans (har har). Anyone know where these suckers are hiding?

Hi JStubbles,

Had a search of the texures folder, but only found a little bit of what you're after for sure with some potentials to check.

The definite one (but it's only the very end bit)...

ShipListEndRight.tex     in Textures/GUI/Tactics/OwnShipList

These possibles  were found in Textures/GUI

TTBL.tex
TTBL.tex
TTBM.tex
TTBR.tex
TTML.tex
TTMM.tex
TTMR.tex
TTTL.tex
TTTM.tex
TTTR.tex

That's all that I could find, I'm afraid (even checked the.dap files as well).

Better to look the fool by asking, then prove them right with ignorance.

Damn. Yeah, I've already edited all of those and they worked fine. Hmm

This is notoriously frustrating. I was able to sort of hack my way into getting the shiplist end to look correct, but extending the length of the end right texture to the max width of the cell. So it's all grey now. But the blue line in the ship info and all of the blue crap in the manual panel still evades me.

Also, the title UI is also half-assed when it comes to locating the assets.

Don't know about the others, but I at least don't, sorry :(

I dabbled only shortly with the UI textures and also saw some of that seemingly hardcoded stuff (like the animated menu background, if you don't cover the whole screen with your background logo). Haven't explored this much further, but I don't believe you can do that much about it.

Bah, I figured it would be some BS like that. They made the strangest choices for things. A texture for a button, then the button right next to it uses some hard-coded effect. It's ridiculous.

Thanks.
