Inventory/HUD missing graphics

by Peter Eberle · in General Discussion · 03/24/2003 (11:32 pm) · 3 replies

When using the latest version with the patch I do not see any graphics/icons inside the HUD at the bottom of the screen. If I go into the GUI editor (F11) I can manually add in the graphics myself, by navigating to the correct section of the GUI and applying an image. Is there supposed to be some sort of highlight so that you can tell which inventory item you have selected (besides the obvious seeing yourself carrying it)? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,

Peter

Hmm. Peter if you hit a number key that slot should be highlighted. But if you are not seeing the graphics at all something is clearly wrong.

Maybe when you unzipped the patch some files ended up in the wrong directories? The new graphics should be in rw/client/ui. So what exactly do you see, just empty item slots with nothing inside of them?

Maybe the server file inventory.cs did not end up in the right place? (rw/server/scripts) The only other thing I can think of is some files were read-only and were not overwritten. I would try unzipping the patch again and making sure you are unzipping it to the right place and all the files are actually overwritten.

It was the read-only issue I think. I went ahead and deleted my original installation and re-installed from the beginning and then added the patch and now everything works fine. Just call me a fool.

A lot of people have run into that problem, in the future we will make sure not to mark things read only.
