UI\MiscData.txt

So I was particularly interested the other day to see how importing an MPQ containing .txt UI configuration files with grimoire could allow me to overwrite over an original file. I changed a few things in UI\MiscData.txt, such as :

Quote:

// gold text data
GoldTextColor=255,0,0,255

// lumber text data
LumberTextColor=255,255,0,0

// Fog Color
FoggedTerrain=60,16,16,32

The three of them worked, making gold's floating texts blue, lumber's red and made fog of war much lighter.

To my surprise modifying the camera fields didn't change anything (they are supposed to change the camera configuration for the different cameras involved in PAGE UP/PAGE DOWN ingame procedure:

Quote:

[Camera]
// Update Listener section in bin\ui\soundinfo\miscdata.txt
// if the number of camera zooms changes
// game camera paramters
AOA=304,305,306,307,308,309
FOV=70,70,70,70,70,70
Rotation=0,20,40,60,80,100,120,140,160,180,200,220,240,260,280,300,320,340
Distance=3000,2700,2400,2100,1800,1650
FarZ=15000,15000,15000,15000,15000,15000
NearZ=100,100,100,100,100,100,100
Height=0,0,0,0,0,0,0
// Camera smoothing.
Smoothing=0.00
SmoothMaxDist=1000
SmoothScale=0.80
SmoothBias=0.15
SmoothMinFPS=10
SmoothBeta=1.5

I found the camera modification possibility quite interesting, but I am sad it didn't work at all, does anyone have an idea?
