Having difficulty with hi-res status bar.

[Enjay]

Can the status bar be made hi-res? I think I'm doing everything right. I can make a pistol sprite hi-res but the replacement status bar gets ignored.

The hirestex lump looks like this:

Code: Select all

remap STBAR HRBAR
remap PISGA0 HISGA0

I think all the names are typo free.

I've also used the hi_start hi_end method and got the same results.

The attached is just an investigation/test but it demonstrates my difficulty.

My problem or GZdoom's?

The status bar graphic gets manipulated by the status bar code so it can't be replaced. It will always use the standard patch. The way the code is working now there isn't much that can be done. It'd have to be completely rewritten.

Fair enough. I was coming to the conclusion it might be something like that. Ah well, I use alt-hud anyway, I was just trying stuff out. Thanks.
