Battlefront Repository Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 This is a NEW totally reworked version of Vin's animated text mod CMBN to v2.10 thanks to Marco Bergman taking an interest in the mod concept, and offering the graphic contributions.

It gives the text an "animated" feel, and gives the player a clearer picture of the actions at a glance. The mod contains two versions. One is "heavy”, and one is "light" with the only difference in the two being the action "Spotting". The “heavy” version uses a symbol of an "eye to show the action. The “light” version maintains the word as a kind of filter that can be ignored making the more important symbol actions stand out. Other than that all graphic symbols in the "legend" are used.To change anything to your preference you can draw the symbols in the “string” text file using the number code that is on the font explain pic. To draw hold down the Alt key while pressing the numbers on the NUMBER PAD ONLY, then release the alt key. You will see a symbol then appear where you have typed, but the graphic symbol will show in the game. Have fun, and enjoy!Vin (Vinnart)*IMPORTANT.

Erwin Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Works great. Thanks. BTW: I had a similar weird problem crop up when playing CMSF Road to Dinas around mission 10. The units were labelled wrong etc. even though the prior scenario was fine (I loaded the prior scenario to double check). Is it possible that your CMSF version could get buggy suddenly like that? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure why the mission was buggy with it. This is the first time I am hearing of a problem with the CMSF latest version. I never played the mission you are speaking about. Probably an isolated incident so i would not worry about it if you are not having problems with other missions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marco Bergman Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I did that and everything works fine except for "spotting" If you want the eye symbol to show, you need to use the "heavy" version instead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
