When I was writing Road.bin Editor and I was bored from it, I started developing some little editors.

 

 

Menu.def Editor

With this tool you can edit windows in game – adding, editing, removing items in windows. Menu.def file is in the tables folder.

But I was a little fail, because I expected a little bit more things defined in this file, eg position and size of speedmeters, creating new and new subwindows etc. But everything in this file is controlled by Game.exe, so if you create a new window, it works, but every windows after new window will be moved of one offset, because you created a new window.

But you still use it to create some string eg to main menu with description of your mod, or you can remove items in main menu which are unsuitable in your mod. So main menu can looks: New Game, Load Game, Quit <img decoding=” data-emoticon=”” srcset=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x” width=”20″ height=”20″> Or you can totally relocate and change size of windows with items.

Some of hidden windows, most are accessible from Mafia Multiplayer Racing Mod.

The second editor is Parnik.def Editor

Parnik.def file is in the tables folder. Parník is in Czech: steamer. And in this file are navigation paths to cargo ship, which rides in the city. Model of ship is lodriver.4ds and at the moment are generated two ships. If you want that ship rides in countryside, you have to import a Bridge definition into eg FREEKRAJINA mission. And link definition to existing name, which ends 01 number.

In FREERIDE it is: LLsklap01 and sklapx01. In FREEKRAJINA you remane it to eg: Mesh01.

Mesh01 is model of hangar at the airport, but it doesn’t matter <img decoding=” data-emoticon=”” srcset=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x” width=”20″ height=”20″>
