trebby Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 Hello gents, After purchasing HitR and activating it via JSGME there is a new mainscreen picture of an Nieu28 in US colors with an insaniously laughing pilot in it. I rather have the atmospheric mainscreen picture of OFF phase3-out-of-the-box. Changing files via JSGME (mod installing proggie) would be easy if only I knew were the mainscreen pic is.... Any tips? Thanks, trebb. Quote

Unacceptable! But, sorry don't know where the files are. Edited March 30, 2010 by Barkhorn1x Quote
trebby Posted March 30, 2010 Author Posted March 30, 2010 But Barkhorn.... Why not? As long as other sacred OFF-dev work takes its place? It will still be happy inbreed you know Quote

trebby Posted March 31, 2010 Author Posted March 31, 2010 uncleal, do you mean it is hard-coded or something? Seems to me that it is just a pic from a file wich was changed to depict the HitR install... If it cant be done, Ill live with it... Cheers, trebby Quote

trebby Posted April 3, 2010 Author Posted April 3, 2010 Never mind trouble, Arafat is dead...its done! Nice Retro OFF look, altough not perfectly working. For instance, no skins for US Nieu28 recognized. But it works and is more flavored to my taste now! Quote
trebby Posted April 4, 2010 Author Posted April 4, 2010 Well uncleal, I did it the quick and dirty way. Used JSGME mod enabler to substitute manager.exe ver 1.0 with the latest manager from HitR 1.47. That way one cannot mess things up. Obviously using the 1.0 manager, gives 1.0 features good (imho) and bad... The cost: 1.Only custom skins for HitR aircraft (exept Fok E5). 2.Restricted Workshop settings as per ver 1.0. 3.No nationality screen at campaign start. The gain: 1. Lovely, classy main screen (Rid of the arcadish HitR Pic), in same style as first start screens with famous aces in Old Brown. (The one with burning OFF letters) 2. Brownish menu sides and sand-timer, nice. I regard the cost too high so I revert to default. That is, until some more enlightened soul combines the best of both worlds, by implementing the ver 1.0 graphics with 1.47 functionality... I hope that I did not condemn myself to being a heretic , just giving some constructive feedback on my behalf. The game stands as a rock, period. Best regards, trebb Quote
