Not sure if this would be better off in FSUP...

Backslash has been having me recreate the FS1 HUD graphics for FS Port as of late (resolution upgrade)
and unfortunately he doesn't have a copy of FS1 around to fire up so I can get what I need to finish the project.

What I need is a screen shot at the normal FS1 resolution (no scaling like on a widescreen monitor)
that shows me the left and right HUD arcs (  ) clearly. The only one's online are of poor quality or have
an explosion behind the arc's which makes them hard to see.

Basically just start a mission I guess and take a capture looking at black empty space so the arcs show up the best.

Appreciate it.

The only place I knew where to look for one is GameSpot, since on my PC the color palette in the screenshots is all kinds of ****ed up.

That's what I needed for clarity, but GS already resized it oddly.

I suppose I might be able to use it... no one has a copy of FS1 laying around installed?

Do this to the images:



EDIT: I don't have time now nor is FS1 installed, but I can do it tomorrow. Do you need the HUD only, or the other interface as well?

I've already added the FS1 HUD to the FSPort, if that's what you're wondering.  It's in version 3.1.

We've been able to solve the issue and I've got adequate captures now.
Thanks anyway guys.

To be honest Goober and Co' you probably need to get with Bax and clarify
what exactly you've completed and added to FS port.

One or the other or perhaps a mix of the files may be better than what you already have.
I've made all of my files from scratch.. they are not a simple blurry resize of pre-existing art.

But Bax was not aware that you were doing something in regard to this.
Basically I now have the captures I need, but I'm holding off finishing the HUD art (which all I have left
is the two arcs) until I hear something one way or another.

Bax is under a new heavy work load in RL, so I doubt we'll be hearing much from him except on Thursdays.

If you want to spell out what you've done Goober - that may bring this to a resolution (pun intended)
quicker.

I've programmed in a way to switch between the FS1 HUD and the FS2 HUD in FSO.  It requires the original interface art, plus hi-res interface art that Taylor created.

[colecampbell666]

Cool.

[Goober5000]

Screenshot posted for an example.

It requires a recent SCP build, though, and some files that Taylor provided to me only last week.

Well... not sure what of that is from FS2 as I only have that and a FS1 shot to go by atm...

There's a few noticeable things though that look a bit off, and I see that the res' is still 640x480.

I do have to wonder if that's my Pri and Sec weapons indicators, with the extra slot, but again I don't
have a comparison handy atm. It could be if Bax gave them to Taylor... as I sent those over a few weeks back.
