Nope. Working with 2022 version in which the "dot' has become almost invisible and frequently just disappears when moved across the nav screen. At least to me.
I will look at the SHIII/data/menu file and see what I can do. It seems to me that just editing it in the Paint program would be adequate, but then...
Appreciate the reply.
Will get back.

Nope - that image is of the 'eraser' icon in the screen heading of choices, not the tiny movable dot that is the active deletion device on the screen where you actually delete stuff when clicked. That dot must exist somewhere in the Data file and be edited via the Paint program to become Bold or Bright Red or larger or sumpin'.
Someone among the recent upgrade editors must know where it resides. Hello?

is it possible to change the emblem on the submarine outside of the one provided by LSH 2022? . I'm a bit bored with only being able to choose one emblem

Default Intro image mod

One additional thing I would like to do is change the bland Loading screen with something more submariner like this attachment as an INTRO.JPG.
I have not done this type of attachment before so I have no idea if it loaded or not. It does fill the screen with LSH3 2020, but LSHS 2022 does not load it . Any assistance?

If I understand correctly the problem is the file type needs to be tga, not jpg. Rename the file to Intro.tga and place in the following path inside the main game folder: data/Menu/Loading. Make a backup of the existing one if you don't want to lose it. Or use JSGME if you're familiar with that application. Hope it helps.

Stork100:
Thanks, but even with a *.jpg extension the image will not open. Even if I copy and paste the image from LSH32020 (where it does open quite well) I get just a black screen with a red Load ribbon across the bottom in 2022. It does not seem to matter what extension the image has...it will not display. Not a world catastrophe but it is a bit irritating.

Actually my bigger problem is seeing (I mean actually able to see) the tiny dot used as an active 'eraser' on the nav screen. This is a major problem and has resulted in multiple episodes of losing the dot and getting into trouble. I do not think I am alone in this as the world ages. I cannot find the line of code in Data (or elsewhere) that would permit a simple change to Bold or Red or sumpin'. This would not be some complex coding requirement.

In any case, thank you.
