Title: Problems with UI
Post by: Paranoia on June 28, 2013, 12:19:22 PM: I'm having several problems with my UI for the AI pack which I am making, and I don't seem to know what the problem is with this:

I have resized the logo to 512px by 128px and have changed the .gib file accordingly, I also saved the logo in both GIMP and Paint.Net and it still doesn't work. Here's a sample form the .gib:

Code: [Select]
[Group] ReportedPos 0.5 1 0.1 1 Alignment 10 AspectSetting 0 AspectRatio 0 PassMouse true Notes Name logo grp ID -1 Position 0.5 1 0.1 1 Size 512 0 128 0 Visible true ChildOrder 3 ClipMode 1 NumChildren 1 [Image] _Tiling false _Filename \mainmenu\ra2_logo.tga _BufferWidth 0 0 0 0 _Size 512 0 128 0 _Alpha true _Filtering 0 _ForeColor 1 1 1 1 _Name _Position 0 0 0 0 0.15625 0.625 0.65625 0.699219 Name New [Image] ID -1 Position 0 0 0 0 Size 512 0 128 0 Visible true ChildOrder 7 ClipMode 0

I think you're unable to change the file size of it, though, so if it's something like 48.0KB, then the file needs to stay 48.0KB, otherwise the game won't be able to read it correctly, and it comes up looking like that. I've encountered this with decals and the Octagon Arena reskin I was doing recently, as well as the UI I've been messing around with, so that'll probably be what's wrong with it.

I guess that is the problem, since I reset the image and it's now fine.

The file size has nothing to do with having a corrupted image in RA2.
