InfoCard GUI Hack Request

freelancer.exe    0811E4    E17A94->713D8A = make "Infocard_Stats" smaller (0.29->0.27) for scroll
freelancer.exe    0B7D25    8FC275->1F856B = make "ShipInfocard_Stats" smaller (0.24->0.23) for scroll
freelancer.exe    0B8DE9    538B->EB06 = allow scroll for "ShipInfocard_Stats"
freelancer.exe    0B8EE3    538B->EB06 = allow scroll for "ShipInfocard_Values"

```The first one stops the scroll bar from overlapping the stats after selecting a ship; the others are what you asked for. You do have to scroll "stats" separately from "values", though, but that can't be helped.

Thank you adoxa. I will give it a try.

Awesome. One thing though. When I edited the first(or forth, can’t remember off hand) part, my game crashed. I don’t doubt it was an error inputting the info but, for those of you using this, keep that in mind.

Secondly, I am only using the ShipInfocard_Stats, discarding the ShipInfocard_Value as the layout of the infocards we’re using does not permit this.

I’ve only used two of the “hacks”

freelancer.exe    0B7D25    8FC275->1F856B = make "ShipInfocard_Stats" smaller (0.24->0.23) for scroll
freelancer.exe    0B8DE9    538B->EB06 = allow scroll for "ShipInfocard_Stats"

To make the Shipinfocard_Stats larger, I’ve changed the value of:

freelancer.exe    0B7D25    8FC275->1F856B = make "ShipInfocard_Stats" smaller (0.24->0.23) for scroll

to:

freelancer.exe    0B7D25    8FC275->1DB6D0 = make "ShipInfocard_Stats" smaller (0.24->0.23) for scroll

increasing the Shipinfocard_Stats window by 60 Bytes. Here’s an example of what I did:

As you can see, I am ignoring the info in Shipinfocard_Value(IDS_Name3) so I only have 2 windows at the bottom. One for the description the other for the Technical data.

so, with that hack there are no two columns anymore for the stats but only one, right?

There is already 3 columns in the ship dealer infocard. This hack permits adding a scroll bar to each of the 2 right columns so you can add more information if desired.

I just used two of those columns for FW:ToW purposes.

Thank you so much adoxa, you’ve just doubled my work :lol:

Gisteron

okay… is there a way to force the scroll bars added by these to always do move together? or, if easily possible ofc, even show one single (stats) scroll bar scrolling both stats columns…

I don’t think so. But, I’ll leave that for adoxa to answer.

Also can’t thank you enough adoxa. You, like w0dk4 and Qi are the code.

@currican: Oops, the first line was indeed wrong - fixed it (typo, doubling the E instead of the 1).

@Gisteron: With a bit of mucking about, I can have the one scroll bar to scroll both windows. I guess I’d need to do it for the ship selection as well as ship info screens. Anywhere else?

Nice hack Adoxa… Been wondering if this could be done for a long time now!

Anywhere else? Weapon infocards please…

Gisteron

yes, one scroll bar for both the stats parameters and the stats values on the infocard… while keeping the rest as it is^^
would be pretty helpful for any mod introducing new ship classes such as capitals.

adoxa

Here’s a plugin to use one scroll bar for both the stats and values.

Gisteron

does it still need the scrollbar hacks or does it add them itself, too?
oh, and thank you adoxa, great job again and again

adoxa

Does them itself.

Would it additionally also be possible to move the right bits further leftwards? Because the right part has less space in one row than the left one has.

adoxa

I won’t (yet?) make it part of the plugin, but here’s the hexedits.

freelancer.exe	08122A	0.17f = size of stats values ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	08123C	0.99f = position of stats values ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	0B7D60	0.14f = size of stats values (ship dealer) ~adoxa
freelancer.exe	0B7D75	0.27f = position of stats values (ship dealer) ~adoxa

? Offline

Thank you very very much, tis all I needed
