CutRSC cannot be behind UI
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Using cutRsc to display a fullscreen image overlays the interface of the game, depending on the image making it impossible to see the Action Menu or the Weapon info hud. Providing a layer that is behind the UI to use with cutRsc would help avoid this. {F21862} {F21863}

Additional Information

http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/cutRsc - offers a layer option but setting it to negative doesn't display the RscPicture at all.

As of 22-12-2013, it still doesn't provide any sort of option to display custom RscDisplays behind the main UI to avoid obscuring the in game UI with a custom non interactive display.

Is there any update on this? I guess it won't make it into the next DLC patch due to content lock.

Any word on the progress made towards having this implemented?

I see this has been assigned for some time. Low on the priority queue?
