I remembered the chat occurred was done in the French part of the forum and it's about ImageFlag , here => viewtopic.php?f=39&t=4905&p=71695&hilit=ImageFlag#p71695 . It'll make you practice your French...

Correct Mod should have something like this :

Code: Select all

ImageFlag Flag 0 0

in addition of :

Code: Select all

ImageFlag Flag 0.75 0.75

(0 0 = preloading)

Hey manutoo, which file is it that we need to modify?

Thanks manutoo, I did manage to find that thread yesterday by typing 'drapeau' into the French part of the forums search engine. (drapeau is as good as my French gets) I then checked my files and they were shown to be correct....

Code: Select all

// Load flags
item
{
   CycleButton #ImageGI
   ImageFlag FlagTeam1Circle 0 0
   Pos -1000 -1000   
   OnAction
   {
      SlideCountry /InGame_p1/Country 0 /WT_Intern/NbCountry-1
   }
   ShowIf /Intern/GameType 2
}

I just can't understand it because I have two identical mods with the same hud files in both and one lags in the Davis Cup matches and the other one plays perfect.
The only difference between the two mods is: one has extra pak files 3,4,5 and the other one doesn't. The one without the extra pak files is the one that doesn't lag.

Last year, I spent days on this problem trying everything I possibly could and I still couldn't find a solution. You know me manutoo, I can usually find solutions to problems but this one has left me well and truly perplexed!!

I know it's just something simple that needs correcting that's all, I will keep trying to find what the hell it is!

It's in your menu folder underneath the art and font folders. Look for something like davis_hudscoreboard.menu

Ok! Thank you ComeonANDY!! I've found the file but can't open it because it's a MENU file, how should I do? I tried opening it with Adobe but it didn't work...

Open it with notepad, for me it worked.

Ok it works! Thanks a lot R-TEG!

it may have another .menu file with the exact same name in Pak 3, 4 or 5, and thus the engine use it instead of the one you have found. You can check by changing the position of an item in the one you have found, and if it doesn't reflect on screen, then it's not used.
Another possibility : it could have another ImageFlag somewhere else.

I only have the one and that's kept in one of the pak files.

I thought the same and when I found this, I thought problem solved...

Code: Select all

Image FlagTeam1Circle 24 24
Pos 295 102

...but after changing it, it still didn't solve it.

I'm going to leave it for now, I can still play using the Davis Cup scoreboard by taking the flags out of the scoreboard.

Thanks for answering anyway manutoo, I know you normally don't get involved in the modding side of things so much appreciated!!
