Radiation progress bar is misaligned with certain aspect ratios

Fixes for the radiation indicator in the hud and inventory


Not perfect better than it was. For 4x3 and 16x9.

The radiation progress indicator is only misaligned in 5:4 mode; with widescreen resolutions, it's already properly aligned.

Thanks for supplying the 5:4 fix.

Committed in 7adee9b.

I jumped the gun. The radiation progress indicator is misaligned for 16:9 resolutions, too, not just 5:4. I wrongly concluded that the indicator isn't misaligned with any widescreen resolution on the basis that it is properly aligned with 16:10.

@Georgiy-Timoshin Your fix for 16:9 breaks the alignment for 16:10. And your fix for 4:3 (e.g. 1024x768) actually breaks 4:3 but fixes 5:4 (e.g. 1280x1024). In summary:

	16:10	16:9	5:4	4:3
SRP	✔️	❌	❌	✔️
Your fix	❌	✔️	✔️	❌

You didn't notice, but there's also a new texture for the inventory(ui_hud2_rad01_over_new) and a fixed one for the hud on top of the arrow.
I forgot about the problem of different aspect ratios on the same file. It's bad that can't make your own file for each aspect ratio.

[Decane]

Here is a table with the required positions of HUD element ui_hud2_rad01_progress in order for it to appear properly aligned under each of the four aforementioned aspect ratios:

Required x, y for ui_hud2_rad01_progress	16:10	16:9	5:4	4:3
actor_menu.xml	-	-	x="3" y="37"	x="3" y="40" (default)
actor_menu_16.xml	x="2" y="40"	x="2" y="44"	-	-
maingame.xml	-	-	x="166" y="52"	x="166" y="55" (default)
maingame_16.xml	x="138" y="55" (default)	x="138" y="59"	-	-

[Georgiy-Timoshin]

Yes, I've already figured that out.
The main fix is these textures:

[Decane]

The texture that partially obscures the radiation detector's dial in the inventory screen does not blend properly when using the optional Transparent Inventory feature:

[Georgiy-Timoshin]

Moved the texture covering the radiation detector from "ui_hud.dds" to "ui_ingame2_common.dds". This will allow you to use "transparent inventory" without problems. The texture that is replaced in the "transparent inventory" mod (ui_ingame2_common.dds) does not have this insert and therefore everything will look the same.

Radiation detector dial overlay fixed in 13e5122.

I'm not sure how to fix the vertical misalignment of the red radiation progress bar across different aspect ratios, however. The game seems to have been made with 4:3 and 16:10 in mind and the progress bar doesn't scale correctly to 5:4 and 16:9. stretch="1" doesn't help. I don't really want to have aspect ratio -specific variants of actor_menu*.xml and maingame*.xml that the user must select between.

Thanks - included in 78d11f1.

@Decane Speaking of widescreen - can you also include this fix for scope textures? They are slightly stretched on 16:9.

Alex_Demolisher on ModDB sent me a nearly identical widescreen scopes fix in 2018 — the only difference being that his had width 129 instead of 128 for each wpn_crosshair_add_l. But I decided not to include it because it made scope textures vertically elliptical (stretched) on 16:10; it turned out that 16:9 needs the fix but 16:10 doesn't. And I didn't want to break 16:10 to fix 16:9.

@vlad54rus your fix has the same problem:

Why not make 5:4/16:10 support a separate install, similarly to how Widescreen Patch used to be?
