Mod name: PDA actor dot mini-mod - v0.86 Author: Lux aka LuxZg Version: 0.86 Date: 23.10.2008. STALKER CS: 1.5.0.5 Description/Changelog: --v0.86-- Just shortened the distance between the "dot" and the "arrow", according to request from PCDania ;) --v0.85-- This is a mini-mod which changes actors icon ("dot") on the PDA map from that large and pretty much useless icon, to a smaller, more precise, and IMHO - more usefull pointer. Minimod works PERFECTLY with levels and their maps when you're in: Swamps, Cordon, Dark Valley, Agroprom, Yantar, Red Forest. There are minor problems with Limansk and Garbage, which is not my fault but the fault of original textures. There is a huge problem with original Military warehouses, and a small one with my fixed version of Military warehouses PDA map. As usual, please report any problems or further mismatches, so I can make a better final version od this PDA mod.. Future: I am currently thinking about finding a way to fix Garbage and Limansk in a similar way that I've started fixing Military warehouses map. And when I'm done I'll be posting a PDA map package which will include all maps with fixed location/placement, fixed global map as well, all maps will have a variation with terrain point names and without them, and I will include this version of "mini-dot" for actor pointer/icon. I am also preparing a different kinds of maps, actualy more or less the same thing I've been posting, but with different markings for terrain point names (instead of yellow triangles, I had few requests for a circle-with-dot pointers, different colors, etc. so I'll probably make a few variations). Tested: Tested in 1.5.05, works fine, and no problems except: - original Garbage map has a noticable (although not huge) mismatch similar to the map of Military warehouses - Limansk map has correct location shown in minimap but PDA map shows location about 1m to the south - original Military warehouses map is a HUGE miss, so I have tested with my fixed map - my fixed map of Military warehouses has similar problem as original Limansk map - correct placement in minimap but a small difference is noticable in PDA map, and it ranges from ~0.5m in north-west of th map, to around 3 meters in the south-east Credits: me - ofcourse, for making this fix INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS (by an unknown Stalker - but thank you anyway!) -----INSTALL------------------------------------------ Simply put the gamedata to your Stalker CS directory And change the line in fsgame file from: $game_data$ = false| true| $fs_root$| gamedata to: $game_data$ = true| true| $fs_root$| gamedata ------------------------------------------------------ Enjoy!
