RELEASE: Blk40/42 HUD Mod
-
I lost my 6 dimension capability of the TackIR. It now see side to side or up and down. Is there any fix for that?
I did only downloaded Harpoon’s file into documents then installed by double clicking. -
Ok fixed it, just had to click some options in setup. Looks great, the TrackIR is what you need to see the beauty of the WAR HUD. Thank you for your efforst Harpoon.

I think they had thinner HUD, like the F-16A.
No pilot, but from my research times I say the F-16As (earlier versions) had a completely different version even apart that HUD camera.
There are many little nuances in current HUDs from Block 30s to Block 50s and MLUs, but at least the F-16A original HUD was much smaller. Later HUDs look pretty similar from what I saw in the net and on vids. But there is e.g. a difference in the F-16MLU HUDs the RNOAF and those the RNLAF or Belgian Air Forces use AFAIK.
And of course there used to be the ugly long Wide Angle version for earlier Block 30s.On request I upload my collection of F-16 HUDs/video screens…what’s still there.

Thank you very much!

Falconbr, that is actually just a folder (or 5 folders) with some screens and screenshots from YouTube videos.
It used to be much much larger in my FreeFalcon Beta Squad days, so I will gather them screens and pics tonight and post here…ca 5 hours from now. On some of the shots the Block type is on the photo, on others only the context revealed the used type…e.g. I recall a site where an F-16MLU was photographed in high res and you could see Belgian Air Force personell stand around. That will take a bit…Cheerio
Thorst.

That’s by far not everything I ever collected but all I could still find on a quicker search…
Some are doubled, and you will find most shots here are common internet known screens.

Has anyone tried to install this mod with theaters? I tried to install it by just directing the install to the “add-on-balkans” theater folder for example and not working.
-
OK, disregard… Looks like I will have to manual install… Ok, got it now.
-
Nice job Harpoon, Thanks.
Slayer.
-
Great mod. The wide angle HUD has always been my favorite. Excellent work man.

Hey guys, I downloaded the first file “with pilot” and installed it. The only thing that changed for me was the addition of the pilot, but no wide screen HUD. I am running in the Korean theater.

**@ Harpoon:
Please … tell us how your installer works …?
Does it install your 3D model (merge) in the current (clients) .lod files etc … or is it a copy/paste of files present in installer that you have “tweaked” on your computer from your current BMS version?
In other words: … does it works for another version where .UCD .VCD .ct .LOD etc … has been modified …?**
-
This is a needed addon is it compatible with update 1 & 2?

As I see he used the DB of first release. He merged his work into this DB. When you runs the installer it makes a backup about your DB and replace your DB completely. This “small issue” almost ruined my MOD. IMHO this type of installer is very, very dangerous.

No it is not. (See post just above)

Agree if not used wisely. A version check would be safer…
-
Hope we get a version for U2 soon. By the way is the HUD to scale? It seems a little too small compared to all the pictures I’ve seen. Maybe that’s why the top of the HUD can’t be seen from the pilot’s view.
-
First of all, Molny is right. As there is no way of creating an installer that replaces a model in DB (if I’m wrong, PM me and I’ll make a proper one), it replaces the model DB, that’s why I wrote it’s only compatible with the Korea. But that was before update 1 and I haven’t touched it since then. Today, I’ll prepare a package for modders containing everything you need to place it in any DB.
I think it’s best to leave the decision to use it or not to campaign makers. As for default Korea, I’ll try to find some time to replace the installation files with new ones. -
The blk 40 HUD should really be included in the base install, (without the pilot).
