Carrier Operations II

[Wrench 9,461]

don't forget to update the avionics ini to add the SF2 shader/texture statements for the HUD!!!

GG on the GG, colmack!

 

I'm trying to update the existing Sea Harriers. Getting it to show up on carriers was easy, but no matter what I do I can't get anything to display on the HUD. Maybe I didn't put in the shader texture statement thing right? Here's what I have so far (using Avionics60.dll as before):

change the RWR to vector, it's probably more correct

 

look at the stock hud statments, for avionics60.dll, use the A-7A's statements (or for the harrier, maybe even FROM the stock Harriers!)

 

from my AV-8A mod, which pretty much uses all stock bits:

 

[HUD]

HUDMaterial=HUDMaterial

HUDColor=0.36,1.0,0.82,0.8

BoresightOffset=0.0,0.0

ViewportTopLeft=-0.105,-0.090

ViewportBottomRight=0.105,0.180

GunBoresightAngle=-2.5

RocketBoresightAngle=0

 

[HUDMaterial]

EffectShaderName=fltHUD.fx

DepthBufferCheck=FALSE

DepthBufferWrite=FALSE

RenderedInOrder=FALSE

AlphaTestEnabled=TRUE

CullMode=NO_CULL

LightEnabled=FALSE

UseLightLevel=FALSE

SpecularEnabled=FALSE

EmissiveEnabled=FALSE

FogEnabled=FALSE

AmbientColor=1.000000,1.000000,1.000000,1.000000

DiffuseColor=1.000000,1.000000,1.000000,1.000000

ZBufferOffset=0

PriorityLevel=1

BlendOp=BLEND_SRC_ALPHA

NumTextureStages=1

TextureStage[01].TextureName=

TextureStage[01].MipMap=FALSE

TextureStage[01].FilterEnabled=TRUE

TextureStage[01].StageColorOp=TEXTURE_MODULATE_DIFFUSE

TextureStage[01].StageAlphaOp=TEXTURE_MODULATE_DIFFUSE

 

positioning of the text, however, will most likely be different.

 

NOTE: the AV-8A mod uses avionics70.dll

edit part 2!!

checking my SF2 'all is everything' folder....

I actually have the FRS.1 99.9% converted fro SF2; if you want, I"ll zip it up and shoot it your way if you want to finish it.

all the avionics are updated to approx May, 2011 standard.

[+WhiteBoySamurai 1,092]

I'd very much appreciate that Wrench, thanks!

And on a side note, I'm really looking forward to the JSDF Hawkeye skin you posted in the screenshot thread.
