What am i doing wrong?
« on: January 03, 2010, 01:08:18 pm »
Today, i wanted to do my own interface, but i didn't know how to do it, so i ask my one guy. He told me, that i should create elements of my interface (what i have done it in photoshop cs3). Then i downloaded Soldat Interface Maker, because i wanted to have effect like this:

I saved those elements in one folder and was trying to open them in SIM, but it was not possible, because i got error: "No interface file at ***". Maybe you know what am i doing wrong? I tried to open other interfaces and everything was okay, so it's probably my fault.

Btw. I downloaded Soldat Interface Maker from official soldat site.
I am an amateur in the creation of interfaces, it was my first time.
My files has been saved in .bmp.

Sorry for English mistakes.
Yours Xestor

Make a new interface in SIM. That will make a new interface folder in Soldat/Custom-Interfaces/
Put your images in that folder [Soldat/Custom-Interfaces/****], making sure they're named the appropriate names [health-bar, jet-bar, etc].
Press 'reload images' in SIM.

Thanks, your advice has solved my problem.

But now i have some questions about SIM. Is there magnifier? I ask, because im going to create useful in game interface and elements are really small. (Also I made place for nades, but i dont know how can i take them in it. It looks like this: EDIT: nvm, i solved it alone. I have made invisible pixels on left side.)

Btw. Sorry that i wrote in bad place and You had to move it.
