RELEASE: Blk40/42 HUD Mod
-
Again, link in post #1 changed.
Now it has the corrected files.
-
This is an outstanding mod.
-
-
Maybe issues with FLCS BIT stats light, and FLCS battery lights. ???
Press lights/VMS test button…
… must be checked …
-
That’s not the right button my friend. It’s not the VMS test, but the Fire&Overheat test ;).

You’re right! … just a mistake on the screenshots edit … … screenshot corrected … press “F5” to refresh… Anyway … I DO CONFIRM THE BUG … tested in 3D … lights no more working on blk40/42 here …
-
Also bit test gives no light
-
-
old link, Harpoon is fixing it
-
Since this edits common dat files you will need to add it to Balkans and any other theater that uses it’s own database. If you don’t you will have many many problems (appearing outside of cockpit when spawning etc)
It’s all or nothing if you are a serious MP flyer.

This mod porked my F-16 Block 40/42 in Aegean. Porked means crashes now before 3D world.
I also had issues when using my own mod for the Block 50/52 HUD, issue means:
Does the F-16CG also make usage of the 8005.dds, I think it has to do so, correct? In that case once FanOfBMS432 is ready with his mod, we might have a conflict? Maybe it would be nice to double the 8005.dds, creating a new slot for these textures?Otherwise great mod! Thanks Harpoon!

Isn’t this a PL_Harpoon mod??? I see modifications by several others here, why??
This thread has got so out of hand, guys putting in their own modifications, adding links to updates to Harpoons work, it’s a mess.
Although I think this is a great mod by PL_Harpoon, I’m not touching it at the moment. Too much confusion.
This is one of the instances where a mod can become a negative for the end user.
Yes, my opinion only. Thank you,

Agree…
Furthermore …
I would say that … if Harpoon want to keep this mod public, I suggest him to add also the pilot legs for all F-16 variant (since they are present in blk40/42 anyway in this mod) … or adding an option to select to add legs or not at all, for all f-16 variants.
And
If possible (?), make it compatible with all other theaters (understand Aegean and Balkans since they are free ) by adding also an option to install it for this theaters …
Yes, also my opinion only.

it is still harpoons mod. Nothing fancy about it. Only reason i put up some update is becaese there where bugs so i wanted to help.
These files are also send to harpoon and he has put them in the link he had on the first page.
then i redraw my download links.nothing wrong with helping people.
dee-jay: the legs are easely to add. just first install the HUD, then the pilot legs mod that harpoon published a few weeks ago
dont add them default, many people find them blocking the pit from viewing around -
Well then why don’t you stick to giving the stuff to Harpoon and let him update HIS mod and update the links, instead of first making a post with the text that your changing whatever it is, then adding your own link for that change and on and on.
Guys are getting confused all over this thread and porking their installs because of the confusion that is reigning in this thread.
Whatever,

A last recomandation …
And would really like to make it a standardisation for ALL mod developers: In the folder
D:\Falcon BMS 4.32
instead of simply “backup” … it would be better to have:
D:\Falcon BMS 4.32*Add-On Backup\Harpoon’s blk40 hud* … In order to have one single standard folder for all add-On or mods … rather than “spreading files everywhere” …
Please, think about that

yeah i know, basicly it all comes down on reading. And since the most of us dont read…then they fuck up their instals (different mods/theaters)
I only debugged 3 items and Harpoon thanked me for that. The rest is up to him. Everybody is free to wait until Harpoon releases a update. -
or adding an option to select to add legs or not at all, for all f-16 variants.
This is possible but it will double the size of the installer.
But I can do it if you want.
@Dee-Jay:If possible (?), make it compatible with all other theatres (understand Aegean and Balkans since they are free ) by adding also an option to install it for this theaters …
Now, this one is a bit more difficult. Since other theatres are using the same cockpit files and different model DB, so in this case the parent records have to match in all theatres. This need more cooperation with theatre makers and that’s why I wrote in the installer that it works only with korea. Basically, every theatre would require a different installer, unless we’ll be stuck in a 500Mb file with lots of useless data.

Please, think about that
And that is an Excellent idea. It will be included in the next update.
Oh, and one more thing. I’m now working on those lights and will fix them today.
