I wanna get Radar Altimeter (HUD) display the radar altitude when I'm below certain altitude (eg. 2000ft), and get that indicator disappeared when i'm above 2000ft. I tried two SymbolTypes, RADAR_ALT_TEXT, and ALT_LOW_TEXT. The codes are following:

 

[HUD_RadarAltText]

SymbolType=RADAR_ALT_TEXT

TextPosition=0.110,0.060

HorizontalAlignment=LEFT

VerticalAlignment=CENTER

TextFormat=%.0f

DisplayUnit=FEET

MaxValue=2000

MinValue=0

 

//This one is trying to display a text "LOW ALTITUDE" in the center of HUD warning me below 500ft (152.4m)

[HUD_LowAltitude]

SymbolType=ALT_LOW_TEXT

Text=LOW ALTITUDE

TextPosition=0.00,0.00

HorizontalAlignment=CENTER

VerticalAlignment=CENTER

RadarAltitude=TRUE

MaxValue=152.4

MinValue=0

 

 

but both of them failed, the radar altutude and the text "LOW ALTITUDE" are just displayed on the HUD constantly, no matter how high i am (10k feet+, or even 40k feet). it seems the Radar Altimeter doesn't reponse to the MaxValue that i set.

 

is there something wrong in those codes? anybody have any suggestion, thx in advance

I had a crack at this a while ago and the conclusion I came to was that while the SymbolType was listed, it could not be used functionally as you have discovered.

 

It's bad news, I know. Sorry.
