Default No stopwatch TMO mod

Finally got this game to run right, not crash and the correct format.

yet I have no stopwatch, i remember this happened to me many years ago but do not remember the fix.
I hit x and it lights up the "put chromometer on screen" but I see nothing

this sounds like your installation has a glitch.
please post your mod setup: JSGME-Tasks-Export to clipboard, then open a reply post here and press ctrl+v.

The mod was written in the "olden days" of modding, and is off-screen. It's default location setting is in the menu_1024_768.ini file. There was a poster just not too long ago that asked about the same thing, and my brain has leaked since then, and the data escaped... maybe someone else will remember the rest of the story...

do you mean that the clock displays but it is outside the display area of the screen?

It is there, just "off-screen", beyond the screen edges...

that's what i thought/think.

the command is straightforward but depending on the screen resolution, it may not actually be seen.

There is a mod that changes the start location of the watch, but I have not found it yet. Remember, there was another fellow not too long ago that had similar, and seems to me, he posted with the updated coordinates that he used for 1920x1080... but I cannot find that either... Of course, both might be from a nightmare dream I had months ago...

can't say about your nightmares (), we all have those (), but i have the same recollection of a fix for the clock placement.
