Display image ingame (class RscTitles)

[wiggum2 31]

Hi, in ArmA2 i could display a image in the middle of the display just fine with this:

description.ext

class RscTitles
{
titles[]={};
class intro
{
  	idd=-1;
  	movingEnable=0;
  	duration=4;
  	fadein=1;
  	fadeout=1.9;
  	name="intro";
  	controls[]={"title1"};

  	class title1
	{
		type=0;
		idc=-1;
		size=1;
		colorBackground[]={0,0,0,0};
		colorText[]={1,1,1,1};
		font="Zeppelin32";
  	  	text="img\logo.paa";
		style=48;
  	  	sizeEx=0.15;
		x=0.2;
  	  	y=0.4;
  	  	w=0.6;
  	  	h=0.168;
	};
};
};

init.sqf:

titleRsc ["intro","PLAIN"];

(the logo.paa is 995x223px)

But in ArmA3 it is totally displaced and stretched, what do i do wrong ?

Try to make it 1024x1024 (or any other power of two). In your case I'd save it as .png, then load up GIMP (or any other image editing program), create a new image (1024x1024), set background to transparent and then copy in your image, position it, save it as .png, convert to .paa and so forth.

try

style = 0x30 + 0x800

picture and keep aspect ratio

I already tried that IndeedPete, no luck.

@ Larrow

What does that actually do (i mean the "0x30 + 0x800" part) ?

[Larrow 2810]

As i wrote above,

0x30 is hex for 48 (like you already had) and tells the control to expect a path to a image to display rather than using the text line as a string to display.

0x800 tells the control to keep the aspect ratio of the image and not to stretch it to fill the control.

Not 100% sure it will definitely work, that's why i said try it, Ive used it in some controls and it seemed to do the job but I'm so used to making images for games a power of two i do it with out thinking.

Both of these work

style = 48 + 0x800; // ST_PICTURE + ST_KEEP_ASPECT_RATIO
style = 0x30 + 0x800;

This is an Arma 2 font.

font = "Zeppelin32";

so for A3 try

font = "PuristaMedium";
