Scripting Question: How do I disable certain buttons on the talking/combat control interface?

[arroyoman]

The picture above is from Fallout 1.5 Resurrection. In F1.5, the 'Use Best Armor' button is disabled.

How did the Resurrection Team disable these buttons? Most importantly, will this be difficult to implement in a smaller mod?

Guess they just scripted a window over the button, so you can't press it. Rest is just edited graphics. At least that's how I would do this... but I would never do this, because why remove that option.

That's what I thought too. It appears to be very difficult to implement... Anyway, thanks for replying.

Resurrection uses a custom game loader (fores.exe) to apply its own hex patches on the game exe.
They set the button size to 0px height (unclickable) and edited the graphics.

Wow! That sounds really complicated. I suppose I will have to work around that... Thanks for the explanation though, NovaRain.
