UI Mod Project

[-Lønginus-]

I've made some changes to the UI, mainly the topbar, moving the "View Map" button to the side of the other ones to be able to have a full flag shown in the left side and reducing the size of the other buttons, and also changed the colors.

Samples:



Before Install:
Please make a backup of the following files:

-Darkest Hour\Mods\Darkest Hour Full\config\Buttons.txt
-Darkest Hour\Mods\Darkest Hour Full\config\text.csv
-Darkest Hour\Mods\Darkest Hour Full\gfx\blackstripe.bmp
-Darkest Hour\Mods\Darkest Hour Full\gfx\interface\button area\topbar_folder.bmp
-Darkest Hour\Mods\Darkest Hour Full\gfx\interface\button area\Airwing_btn_A.bmp
-Darkest Hour\Mods\Darkest Hour Full\gfx\interface\button area\Army_btn_A.bmp
-Darkest Hour\Mods\Darkest Hour Full\gfx\interface\button area\Combat_btn.bmp
-Darkest Hour\Mods\Darkest Hour Full\gfx\interface\button area\Decision_btn.bmp
-Darkest Hour\Mods\Darkest Hour Full\gfx\interface\button area\Forcepool_btn.bmp
-Darkest Hour\Mods\Darkest Hour Full\gfx\interface\button area\Navy_btn_A.bmp
-Darkest Hour\Mods\Darkest Hour Full\gfx\interface\button area\Province_btn.bmp

Also, make a backup of the correspondent topbar.bmp files on the countries below:

Austria, Austria-Hungary, Denmark, France, Hungary, Japan, Luxembourg, Nehterlands, Ottoman Empire, Poland, Sweden, United Kingdom, Angola, Australia, Canada, Norway, German Empire, Belgium, Bulgaria, British Raj, Finland, Portugal, Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Costa Rica.

Be aware that some of the skin folders are located on the main DH folder, while the rest are on Mods/DH Full.

Only the countries mentioned above are currently available, more to come soon.

To Install:
Just extract on your main Darkest Hour folder

Please let me now if there are any problems with the location of the button text, especially if your game language is not english because I have no way to test if the location is correct.

Work in progress

Hello,i think or better hope you can help me with my Question.

Did you know how i can chance the Position of the Province Interface Informations and Buttons ?
I want to chance the Province Interface for my new Mod, i make Pictures to all Provinces for the DH no Mod (Armageddon) Map and AOD default Map first,later its thinkable that i make this extended for DH Mod,if i find a Province List like this one here " https://hoi2.paradoxwikis.com/Provinces_by_ID,_part_1 " for the Work with DH Full / Light too.

I already finished 550 Provinces at 192x75 Format and they are too small in my opinion,but they will be finished anyway if i dont find an alternative for my purposes,better this small then nothing.

I would like to make them at 252x170 Format,but the Province Interface makes it impossible to enjoy these Pictures and i want to extend the UI more to the Bottom and set the Informations / Buttons there.

Made a Screenshot for showing what i mean.

Would be nice to use that big beautiful Pictures i collected for the Work, without that disturbing Buttons / Informations inside it.
Already deleted the lines between the Buttons and Infos for better overview and increased the Transparency,but thats not enough for good looking.
