RIGHT HERE MAN

Bobthemanofsteel

So I presume it’s one of those there, how do I use this info and put it into use? xD

My Hex editing experience starts and finishes on the Limit Breaking 101 wiki page, so I’m at a loss here. xD

cheeseontoast

I’ll reply to this when I get back from work in like 7 hours… but im pretty sure there is a tutorial on hex editing somewhere trololol =]

Bobthemanofsteel

Well, I know how to replace bytes at an offset, if the terminology is correct.
I’m pretty sure the 0x means it’s an offset, but when I plugged them into Freelancer.exe I came up blank, so I’m obviously doing -something- wrong. xD

FriendlyFire

Yeah, those are all offsets, but 0x doesn’t mean offset, it means the number is in hexadecimal.

It is possible you just didn’t plug the offset properly into whatever program you’re using

Timmy51m

Bob, when you search for the offset don’t input 0x, just use the digits that follow the 0x.

I.E -
3f in freelancer.exe, 0x210530 = near plane of view frustum

search for 210530.

Hope that’s where you’re going wrong.

Bobthemanofsteel

Indeed it was Timmy, thanks guys. It musta worked in the program I used to use, or something.

I dunno whether it’s because I’m tired or what, but the styles offsets are going straight over my head when I plug them in. :<

Can someone save me some time and point me where are located background (pattern) pictures in this window screens?
Thank you.

Vital

\EXE\backgroundpattern.bmp?

??

cvekiboy

Sadly its not! Seems all screens use separate and are located in:
DATA\INTERFACE\HUD folder, if Im right.
I guess, for example hud_playershipinfo.3db is one of them?
I take a look in this file.
Anyway, tnx for tip Vital.

[EDIT] *Wrong! These r hud icons. Search continues.

Hi,

Anyone able to help with 3 questions? I’ve been through the .cmps and fonts numerous times now and can’t seem to find the solution.

Pic1, where’s the code for this thin blue line? It pops up on both of the Trader, Dealer screens.
Pic1, anyone know the name of or how to change the colour of the font circled in Green? The colour currently is #C0C0C0 and there are no entries in FL Colors or any of the info above for this font. I’m assuming the Font is the same both on the Inventory and Dealer lists as it’s pretty much the only thing I’ve not been able to change.
Where’s the job board .cmp? It’s seems to be totally apart from the others. I surely can’t be the only one who can’t find this?

Appreciate any help/answers.

Cheers,
Rik

You need to change the colors of the textures.

rik_starkiller

Brilliant!!

Thanks Hunor!

Davenat0r

You’re welcome! Unfortunately, I do not know the answer of the second question.

And here is my question: how to change the colour of the selection?

rik_starkiller

Well hopefully someone else can help with the second question, it would nice to make that text darker.

To change the colour of the selections I believe you want to be looking at Rich Fonts and these three in particular…

STYLE_TABLE_SELECT
STYLE_LOCTABLE_SELECT
STYLE_NN_SELECTED

Thanks again & hope this helps.

Rik

JONG

Thanks you both, that’s what I need to know.

Now I have question need help too, how to change those pictures of blue fonts color?

Any idea?

Thanks for your help.

rik_starkiller

Hey Jong,

I think you’re after… (rich_fonts.ini)

STYLE_SUBTITLE
STYLE_HEADER
STYLE_HEADER_ACTIVE
STYLE_TABLE
STYLE_LABEL

I may be wrong though, good luck!

Cheers,
Rik

JONG

Wow! thanks Rik!

I don’t know those change need to add setting to rich_fonts.ini.

But still has some question need your help.

The pictures has three places still is blue, how to change it?

Thanks for your help.

Davenat0r

To change the colors of the rollover help and tooltips, you need to use the flcolors. To change the colors of the cursor, you need to edit the cursor texture, which is in DATA/SCREENS/cursor.txm
You find the icons in the DATA/INTERFACE/INTRO/IMAGES folder. They also need to edit with a image editor.

JONG

Thanks Hunor.

But the rollover help is not edit by the flcolors, I was change all of the color by your tutorial, only this one I can’t change.
