Strike Fighter Project 2 – Screen Overhaul v1.2 Customizable Edition
The new version of SF2 Screen Overhaul 1.2 is now released. Here is the following screen this mod completely overhaul:
- Main screen
- Single mission screen
- Mission editor screen
- Hangar (Default) screen
- Loadout screen
- Planning screen
- Roster screen
- Campaign screen
- Campaign editor screen
- Pilot records screen
- Options screen
It does not yet cover another screen. It is work in progress (WIP) for now. What I am seeking for is feedback that will help me improving the mod further. It is one of my biggest projects I ever worked on for SF2. It gave me opportunity to grow a new skill I enjoy doing.
NOTE: Now that SF2 Screen Overhaul is becoming a customizable version. If you make any mods that adds or change anything to this mod, please add my name and mod name to your credit part.
You can contact me by PM in CombatAce (I am known as Eagle114th there) or Strike fighter series Discord chat (My username is Magic Dragon, so you can find me there too.)
Version 1.2 NOTES:
Buttons customization instruction:
In Menu folder (SF2 mod folder), you will see various SF2 screen named as “BUTTONS_HANGAR, MAIN, OPTIONS, etc...), there are folders for each button. In order, to change the color of buttons, go to one of button folder, you will see different folders for various color. Copy the file from there and overwrite the files in any BUTTONS_(SCREEN) folder.
For example, in BUTTONS_HANGAR, if I want to change the color of “LOADOUT” square button to blue; I go to the folder “LOADOUT”, then “Blue” folder, copy the files: LOADOUT0.bmp, LOADOUT1.bmp, and LOADOUT2.bmp. Then I paste (Overwrite) the files in BUTTONS_HANGAR.
Screens and Buttons customization Templates
In different “BUTTONS_(different screen names)”, there are folder “_Templates’. You can use it to change the designs, colors, or anything you want to do with the screen background or buttons.
This mod uses a font known as Orbitron. I included it in _Fonts folder.
I want to express my sincerely big THANKS to Menrva, Wrench, UllyB, Daddyairplanes, Wilches, JosefK, FalonCAF, and everyone else in CombatAce community for making this possible. You all have been a huge help.
Because of Operation Desert Storm 30 years anniversary great mod, I was able to study the codes on how SF2 menu work, which led me into developing new menu for SF2. This mod is truly fun to fly in SF2. If anyone hasn’t tried it yet, I highly recommend it.
There are detailed instruction that explains how to install in the proper ways in README file. LEASE READ IT BEFORE INSTALLING!
I included the plans for the next version in the readme too.
The feedback are always welcomed!
