Default Text Questions

Ok, I have made my Command Bar look more like the older CnC games, putting it on the right side of the screen. Now, I have a question about the text, I couldnt find this in the W3D files:

Where does the superweapon count down timer, where it is on the screen, is set? As well as the notifications in the upper left corner are set?

This would really help me out, thx.

I think it's in InGameUI.ini:

Code:
  SuperweaponCountdownPosition        = X:0.90 Y:0.01
The units are probably in fractions of the total screen size, not sure.

Ok, I fixed it, thanks, another thing,

There is this black bar at the bottom of the screen that I cant get rid of. It isnt the Alpha channels, I checked, and if it was them, it would be a white bar, there is just this black bar that takes up 1/4th of the screen. Anyone know wtf is up with that? How would I get rid of it?

It's pretty much hardcoded in. Not really a way to get rid of it unfortunately...

Shit i wasn't expecting that. That aint good...
I will try a few things to try to get rid of it though, because to undo what I have done would be total fuck for my mod, I am not kidding. I would have to redo the controlbar INI, I would have to recreate the image, so hopefully I can find a way to fix it.

Wait, WTF would someone hardcode that in?

LOADS of mods have had it. AFAIK, the only way 2 remove it is 2 use the button used 2 minimize the command bar, coz it removes it. Sacrificing the ability to hide the bar is usually a price worth paying 2 get a sidebar
