From the first post:
Attention: All SP scenarios played with this mod must be selected through the 'User Scenarios' screen, otherwise they will CTD.


Pop1, if this is not the issue please explain further. Regardless, thanks for the report. :)

Reb,

well that did the trick, thank you. I had missed that vital piece of info from the earlier posts and readme files - my problem for not paying enough attention and just getting stuck in.

Thanks

Excellent - a few of us tried over the years to get the binocular/telescope views to work in GB but couldn't find a satisfactory way of switching between the views.

is there a way to activate it (the new telescope view) with just a key press aswell? I tried Z loadbar:zoom and Z loadlayout:zoom in the keyboard.csv, but it didn't work... :(

If that didn't work then I doubt that there's a way.

- Pan message changed to tooltip, the tooltip displaying only in the pan area
- Fixed a togglehud bug

Reb - What's New!

Hey, before My Computer went out I was working on something like the picture below, I thought that it was better than just a circle like symbol on the screen.

I never did get a finished copy but it should give you more ideas to work with if you were interested.

Hey D

Yeah, I tried the binocular view also, with GB, still have the template. Of course, those efforts were a bust.

If you're suggesting binoculars here, I'm thinking they weren't invented yet, but I could be wrong. I just can't picture Napoleon or Wellington using binoculars. :P
