dryh2o Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I have been trying to determine how to change the background color of the barter and inventory screens from the default transparent to a solid black color. I have Googled, searched various forums and looked for existing mods but haven't found anything yet. I have also searched the XML files but didn't see anything obvious. I am moderately experienced with the GECK and modding. Any assistance would be appreciated. dryh2o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzisparis Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Extract globals.xml from Fallout - Misc.bsa into ..\Data\Menus (unless it's already there).Open it with a text editor (such as Windows' Notepad) and increase the value of _background_fill_alpha (max 255).Note that this will likely effect other menus, not just barter/inventory.

dryh2o Posted February 28, 2014 Author Share Posted February 28, 2014 That makes sense but it doesn't seem to have any effect on anything that I saw in limited testing. I changed it a few times. By default _background_fill_alpha is set to 32. I tried 255, 128, 0 and 1 but I don't see any difference. I see where it's called by several other *menu.xml files. Could there be a switch or other setting that overrides this? I also was thinking to try extracting and editing solid_black.dds to see if that made a difference. Thanks for your help. - Drywater (dryh2o) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
