A question about the HUD for time attack.

[Lat']

So, as I changed the numbers skin for my HUD, I also had to change the colon and the dot for time attack, my only problem is that I have no idea where the dot (for microseconds) is stored... Does anyone know its name in srb2.srb?

I don't know if it's correct, but isn't it SBOCOLON?
Edit: Wait, no, sorry, I misread. Hold on.
Edit 2: Possibly TNYFN046 or STCFN046, maybe STCFN044. If not, I don't know.

SBOCOLON and SBOPERIO.

SBOPERIO

Well, that lump is certainly missing from my copy of srb2.srb.

 

[fickleheart]

It's in patch.dta.

 

[Lat']

Thanks it worked! I guess we can close this now.

 

[Zwip-Zwap Zapony]

It's in patch.dta.

...OH. But that makes no sense, though. What about 2.1.0? I don't think that had a patch.dta, so how would it... uhhmm... I don't get it.

2.1.0 didn't have a patch.dta because it was the unpatched version of the game, silly!

2.1.0 didn't have a patch.dta because it was the unpatched version of the game, silly!

...That's my point. What did it then do about the dot in timers?

 

[TehRealSalt]

It probably used a different lump that looked similar, (such as the lumps that were suggested earlier) but they later gave it it's own lump so that you could replace the period without replacing the period in another font.

(don't quote me on that though, just some guesstimates. all i know for certain is that it used a different lump)

 

[fickleheart]

2.1.0 and prior used the colon to split seconds from centiseconds. The dot was a recent addition.

 

[Zwip-Zwap Zapony]

Hm. Seems reasonable, I suppose.
