[Text] Menus

Post by Death_Wing »

Okay, since this is practically my only source of info cause I'm too dam lazy to make another account on another site and visit everyday and get to know all the ppls and then still fail. No, I'll stay at CC for a lil while longer.

I'm also too lazy to search the previous topics as I found no results in the first five.

Basically: I need to know how to edit the placement and wording of text in the menus. This includes the single player text under the Campaign  Floaters and the Campaign menu themselves.  (as well as the Main Menu and such.)

Please, and Thanks.

You have to use BinEdit, the editor for dialog boxes.
Shadowflare has created the program and it is really simple to use. In any case you should look for BinEdit 2.0, because version 1.0 crashes more than it works... :D

For more detailed questions about the program, you should simply ask Shadowflare...

yeah SF's BinEdit served me well back in the day (I never released anything from then, oh well :P) but Farty's is newer and I think a lot better, I haven't really played around with it though

Crap, problem...

Okay, I did everything you would normally need to do, like put in backround, set the buttons to the right positioning and everything was great (in the preview) but when I tried to play, whenever I went over the SP/Exit/Editor buttons nothing happened at all(no sound and when I clicked still nothing) and when I went over the words, It like disappeared as if it was a graphic problem (you know what I mean?)..

Farty's site is down or something (checked) so that's why I have asked here. Please, I'm lost.
