Re: Between the Ashes: Slaves of Chaos
nono, that "faded look" thought process is bang on. I see Vassago Dirge's influenced the mod in this respect, and I just think it's a great look.

Vassago's Dirge is one of my favorite mods.

Very nice indeed! My only concern though is the message box, are you sure putting it down there makes reading messages easier? Just asking. :)

Dude, WiH did it years ago, I think there's been enough feedback from players now to confirm that.
People are stupid, therefore anything popular is at best suspicious.

That and it's not the real message box, it's a secondary for special sekret things.

It's just so much more convenient to read dialogue there. I wish every campaign had that kind of modified HUD.

"I am one of the best FREDders on Earth" -General Battuta

<Aesaar> literary criticism is vladimir putin

<MageKing17> "There's probably a reason the code is the way it is" is a very dangerous line of thought. :P
<MageKing17> Because the "reason" often turns out to be "nobody noticed it was wrong".
(the very next day)
<MageKing17> this ****ing code did it to me again
<MageKing17> "That doesn't really make sense to me, but I'll assume it was being done for a reason."
<MageKing17> **** ME
<MageKing17> THE REASON IS PEOPLE ARE STUPID
<MageKing17> ESPECIALLY ME

<MageKing17> God damn, I do not understand how this is breaking.
<MageKing17> Everything points to "this should work fine", and yet it's clearly not working.
<MjnMixael> 2 hours later... "God damn, how did this ever work at all?!"
(...)
<MageKing17> so
<MageKing17> more than two hours
<MageKing17> but once again we have reached the inevitable conclusion
<MageKing17> How did this code ever work in the first place!?

<@The_E> Welcome to OpenGL, where standards compliance is optional, and error reporting inconsistent

<MageKing17> It was all working perfectly until I actually tried it on an actual mission.

<MageKing17> TIL the entire homing code is held up by shoestrings and duct tape, basically.

Re: Between the Ashes: Slaves of Chaos
Yeah, I love the newer HUD code because you can do so much with it. Many of these gauges are used for several different purposes throughout the campaign, too. Also.. Training Messages are suuuuuuuper ugly. Which is the root reason why many of these gauges exist.

Re: Between the Ashes: Slaves of Chaos
Patch 1.1 uploaded. You can find it in the release post or just use the Freespace Installer.

This should address HUD issues on higher res screens.
