TBR Pale GUI

[thebarricade 7]

i think im getting the same errors, and if you have some units in your suad it doesnt show all player icoons anymore they are now blank !

I'll look into the errors when I get home from work.

The blank unit-images are by design though, see the screenshot in the first post.

Please make the actions removal separate to the UI too.

(also improved coding)

Oops, forgot about them, I'll move them to the cursors-addon.

@thebarricade: have you changed the icon link direction or edited the image somehow?

Stupid mistake on my part. I forgot to change the path to the cursor-image when I split-off the cursors into it's own addon...

Fixed :)

See first post for download.

I have also moved the action-icons into the cursor-addon.

I spelz gud...

Even newer version available...

EDIT:

Argh NVM. Just read the whole thread and saw your post above. ;)

Dont like that design however. Your forced to use other addons to get them to work (AI icons).

EDIT2:

And the black/dark grey ranger (SPACE) is so dark you cant make out the distance when looking at dark areas. Make it white maybe? You dont range up in the sky so it would show that well if white. And for the moment im not using Bravo6 AI icons as there is a bug. Im waiting for next release. So with this addon i cant see my AI as you chose by design to remove them. So it gets too hard to use this addon as well for now.

Super idea and i really like the grey. But needs more work IMO. ;)

Are we talking about the blank unit-icons in the commandbar here? Unfortunately it's there to stay since I like it that way... (and was the driving force behind this addon), but Bravo6 has a really nice looking set of unit-icons going!

Thanks, and I agree, some of the texts are really hard to see. It's on my action-plan to fix.

I have removed the download for the moment.

BinPBO doesn't seem to work on my machine for the mo.

Will sort it out and return.

New version available in the OP...

[thebarricade 7]

Yet another version... Probably the final one.

Still your config of tbr_pale_gui.pbo has several problems. This is one with good design:

good design

Thanks, download updated.

Argh.. small error in my code.. sorry about that.

Updated the code above.

thanks for this mod. Is it possible to display wounded soldiers in own squad (default as red coloured icons)?

Something like this?

The addon isn't updated yet, I just wanted to check what people think of the "wound-indicator".

Wounded indicators are a must have... ;)

I agree... I managed to completely forget them :o

[mrcash2009 0]

I would make them red outline, becuase green outline just seems to me too much like default BIS selection color, I would prefer red to make thing clear.

Color coordination shouldn't really apply with this, red = danger = injured.

[.kju 3245]

Is there a reason you define/modify the position of the heading element of vehicles thebarricade?

[jumpinghubert 49]

a red frame maybe good. Is it possible to remove the communication symbol near others too?

I didn't like that it was superimposed over the actual "compass". It made it really hard to read, at least for me.

Are we talking about the green outline in the picture above? If that's the case it's the "this-is-the-player"-indicator. The wounded indicator is the dark-red on unit 2.

What communication symbol are you referring to?

[jumpinghubert 49]

If you are near vehicle or person there is as default a symbol (steering wheel respectively for communication to salute or ask something).

the dark red indicator don´t works for me. Its all grey.

Doesn't tbr_pale_gui_cursors do just right that? Or have I missed something?

I'll brighten up the red a bit and post a screenshot tomorrow.

@ thebarricade

In my PROPER tweaks I moved the "degree / heading bar" above it,

a bit higher. Works quite nicely.

[jumpinghubert 49]

default: symbols when you are near persons or vehicles

your mod: symbols gone with the exception of the symbols near persons.

It would be nice when these symbols are gone without exception. Sorry for my english.

Ah, I see. I'll look into it.

I can't see any symbol when near another person. So I'm still not sure what you mean. Could you post a screenie?

[NoRailgunner 0]

Nice and decent looking GUI.

What about moving those small unit symbols into the middle of the boxes and add some for empty ones?

Or instead of weapon symbols just write simple abbreviations eg:

AT - Anti-Tank

LAT - Light Anti-Tank

HAT - Heavy Anti-Tank

R - Rifleman

SNP - Sniper

GL - Grenadier

MM - Marksman

POW - Prisoner of War

AR - AutomaticRifleman

MG - Machinegunner

AA - Anti-Air

Crw - Crew

Civ - Civilian

PLT - Pilot

FAC - Forward Air Controller

Eng - Engineer

FR - Force Recon

MVD - MVD Units

Spez - Spetznaz

Sab - Saboteur

Med - Corpsman, Medic
