Missing Interface in Myth:TFL 1.5?

Post by sin_tax »

I've noticed that TFL 1.5 does not have the top interface bar that Myth has out of the box... Is there a way to recover it? Sorry if this is an obvious answer, but I can't figure it out!

Thanks

Check the preferences, sounds like you have Show Status Bar unchecked. I can't remember if this is true for TFL, but for M2 you can press F6 to toggle the status bar. However, once you checked it in preferences, you don't have to try F6.

This worked perfectly. I couldn't find any options in preferences but F6 did the trick. Now I need to figure out how to get the lower status bar (formations, etc.) to appear. I tried all the function keys but no dice. Any ideas? Thanks again for helping.

TFL features only the status (top) bar. The control (bottom) bar is available only in Myth II.

Ah, thanks. My memory must be betraying me. I had a suspicion that this was the case but I wasn't sure.

P.S. it's great to see an active Myth-related board so long after the game's prime. IMO it is one of the best strategy games made.

There is a TFL Interface plugin to make Myth 2 look like TFL. That interface does have a control bar (since it is Myth 2) which might be what you are remembering.
