Cardassian Intel/Research display (fix)

Post by stardust »

A pet peeve of mine that I'm finally attempting to fix.

When playing as the Cardassians and you amass 10,000 intel or research points, the value no longer displays.

I've tried editing the file cs_scrn.tga to allow more room for the numbers but I've had no luck. The value still no longer displays when you hit the 10,000 mark.

Is there something else I need to be doing to remedy this situation?

The number is not displayed because there's not enough space for it (and the string to the left of it).

But this is not hard to come by :)
Just open lexicon.dic with the UE, and change entry 547 ("Intel Strength") to something shorter, for example "Free Beer" ^^
(of course you may also choose something suitable ;))
A discovery consists in seeing something everybody has seen and at the same time thinking something nobody has thought yet.

If Gowron can get the game to do this he'll have surpassed even his own amazing achievments on here :lol:

Ah well typical me trying to go the wrong way about fixing something, thanks Gowron :)

That'll do methinks:
