Title: How to install GUIs

Usually just unpack all files in data folder, so the directory tree looks like this:
data\art\
data\art\intrface\
data\fonts\
...

In any other case ask person who created the interface.

I dont get why interface modders are not providing interfaces in .zip archive, that could be loaded via config.

for example i add

data\Pure Evil Interface v14[Suppi v3].zip

line into DataFiles.cfg to load it. But i have to modify the .zip file before to have proper structure (meaning the .zip file have to contain Art and Fonts folders in its root directory)

Yep, there's even whole section made just for that (as DataFiles.cfg may be overwritten during update) http://fo2238.fodev.net/wiki/FOnline2238.cfg#Section:_DataFiles ::)

I tried it some time ago. But I wasn't able to load the interface via FOnline2238.cfg.

Because of that I don't provide a propper zip ronillon. ^^

Actually, same here. It always says loaded, but does not seem to work. Maybe i got the file structure wrong. But its weird that the one, that i use to load interfaces does not work.

I have created DataFilesMy.cfg which contains all GUI mods that i have:

Code: [Select]

#data\gui-mods\Classic.Transparent.Interface.V3.zip
#data\gui-mods\Pure Evil Interface v13.zip
#data\gui-mods\Pure Evil Interface v14[ManyFollowers].zip
#data\gui-mods\Pure Evil Interface v14[Suppi v3].zip
#data\gui-mods\Ras Interface CLEAR v2.02.zip
#data\gui-mods\Ras Interface DESERT v2.01.zipThere i just uncomment the interface i want to use or leave them all commented for default one. Ofcourse these .zip files need to contain Art and Fonts folders.

Then DataFilesMy.cfg file is loaded from DataFiles.cfg:

Code: [Select]

include Datafiles2238.cfg
data\factioncritters.zip
data\faction.zip
data\faction001.zip
data\faction002.zip
data\faction003.zip
include DataFilesMy.cfgI just add the last line after every update.

Okay the interface works now via FOnline2238.cfg. Well, only thing that doesn't work are these stupid fonts. And I have no idea why they are not loaded.

To test it you have to change the zip file a little. Unzip the "Pure Evil Interface v14[Suppi v3].zip" and simply Cut & Paste the "default.ini" and "faction.ini" (they are no longer part of the zip file) to your data folder. Then zip the file again and place it in your data folder.

Now open the FOnline2238.cfg and add the following lines to it:

Code: [Select]

[2238]
CustomIni=data\default.ini|data\faction.ini

[DataFiles]
PureEvilInterface=data\Pure Evil Interface v14[Suppi v3].zip
So maybe someone knows a way to fix that font problem?
