I've been having this HUD problem on some of the planes I've downloaded. Is any one else having this problem??

 

here is the problem--- 

znFgdxO.jpg?1

 

 

 

 

here is a mod plane with a working HUD---- 

BOiWvLP.jpg

 

 

 

And to my knowledge all vanilla planes are fine. I have also tried to put other aircraft HUD in to the no-working planes but so far been unsuccessful. 

 

P.S. sorry if this is the wrong place to post this. Also I have searched for an answer here and else where before posting.      

 

Thanks for any help u can give!!  :biggrin:

It seems that a lot of the HUD symbols and display were moved up beyond the HUD glass and that the bar and caret are a bit high. Try going into the avionics.ini and looking for the direction bar? Not sure what is called exactly. Hope that helps.

Check that the certain HUD_ASE_SRM and HUD_ASE_MRM textures are located in the cockpit folder or the ones that are called out in the Avionics.ini, also some hud_hdg_sclae_caret. All of these mentioned should be a tga file.

 

You can find the relevant system naming if you look at it in  section: Numbers can differ

 

[HUDModeAA]

..

Symbol[03]=HUD_HeadingScale

....

Symbol[17]=HUD_ASE_SRM
Symbol[18]=HUD_ASE_MRM

There could be other symbols too that you will have to look up to have a full functionality you wish for.

Why are you using the "spoiler" link to attach images wiht?

There's a button in the "full reply" screen, accessed by the "More Reply Options" located in the lower right of the standard reply window.


As to why the tga's aren't showing up is you're using a SF1 avionics ini in an SF2 game. 

 

The avionics ini you posted is missing all the hud fx shader statements. (ie: hud material statement in the HUD, and the entire descirpton for the hud material iteself)

 

Just look at the stock F-15 or F-16, and you'll see what's needed

I was using the spoiler link because the images and text under them is rather large. If it's a problem let me know and I'll fix it.

Add "HUDMaterial=HUDMaterial" as part of the [HUD] entry in the Avionics INI file.

 

Then paste the data below in beneath it.

Some forums like users to put images inside spoiler tags to keep threads decluttered.

      SF2 Avionics Community Pack (SF2: ACP) - Alpha v0.2
      View File

      ----------------------------------------------------------
      STRIKE FIGHTER 2: AVIONICS COMMUNITY PACK (SF2: ACP) v0.2
      ---------------------------------------------------------
      Welcome to SF2: ACP first release of alpha.  Before I explain about the pack, I want to express big thank to the wonderful communities and modders of Combatace and Combat Flight Sim Tavern (Discord), including Thirdwire for the simulation.
      You all are the reasons why this pack exists.  I want to use the passions to improve SF2 into higher levle with avionics.
      This requires a lot of research, reading flight manual, and tons of tweaking in avioincs and cockpit ini, along with countless of testing in-flight in SF2.
      The mods is not perfect, we do our best with the mods.  We do it with the joys of our hobbies!
      This pack includes the following features:
      - New gunsight / optical sight
      - New texture for radar scope and another avionic equipment (See note #1)
      - Improved cockpit and radar through cockpit and avionics ini tweaks for semi-realism (See note #2)
      - Templates for gunsight and radar scope
      - Improves glass texture (If possible)
      - Accessibility - Optional, includes the AAM firing cue on gunsight for people who can not hear the sounds of missile locking on targets.
      NOTE #1: Due to the nature of lighting system inside cockpit in SF2 engine, I had to apply the darkness level on top of texture scope, in order, to prevent them from glowing.  In templates, you will see "darkness" layer for this reason.
      NOTE #2: As mentioned in note #1, due to little resources (Information / data) on 40s to 70s radar, at least half or most of tweaks are based on an educated guess. For exampe, AN/APG-33 radar that is used with E-1 FCS in F-89B and C, there are some data on it, but no data on elevator nor azimuth angle limitation.  F-89D, in other hand, with E-6 FCS and AN/APG-40 radar, there are several data, which is applied in .ini files tweaks.
      ---------------------------------------------------------
      TEMPLATES
      There are templates for gunsight, radar, RWR, and another type of avionics assets.  It is there so anyone can use it to create their own avionics for any aircraft.

      Avionics overhaul for Historical vs fictional aircraft
      I am dong overhaul for both historical and 'what if' fictional aircraft.
      For example, in this alpha version, there are avionics overhaul for F-8A to F-8K, along with France F_8s.  It also includes 'what if' JASDF F-8EJ Crusader. 
      ---------------------------------------------------------
      Installation:
      Inside each aircraft folder, there is folder "_AIRCRAFT COCKPIT FILES". Inside that folder, there are two folders "DEFAULT" and "ACCESSIBLITY".  You can only use one of them. By default you should install the files from DEFAULT folder.  However, if you are Deaf or Hard of Hearing that can not hear the growling sounds of IR missile, then ACCESSIBLITY is for you.
      NOTE: Make sure you make the backup copies of aircraft folders, in case something goes wrong during the installation progress.
      Inside DEFAULT or ACCESSIBLITY, for any aircraft you have in SF2, copy the aircraft folder and overwrite an existing folders and files.

      SF2 Avionics Community Pack (SF2: ACP) - Alpha v0.2
      By Eagle114th


      ----------------------------------------------------------
      STRIKE FIGHTER 2: AVIONICS COMMUNITY PACK (SF2: ACP) v0.2
      ---------------------------------------------------------
      Welcome to SF2: ACP first release of alpha.  Before I explain about the pack, I want to express big thank to the wonderful communities and modders of Combatace and Combat Flight Sim Tavern (Discord), including Thirdwire for the simulation.
      You all are the reasons why this pack exists.  I want to use the passions to improve SF2 into higher levle with avionics.
      This requires a lot of research, reading flight manual, and tons of tweaking in avioincs and cockpit ini, along with countless of testing in-flight in SF2.
      The mods is not perfect, we do our best with the mods.  We do it with the joys of our hobbies!
      This pack includes the following features:
      - New gunsight / optical sight
      - New texture for radar scope and another avionic equipment (See note #1)
      - Improved cockpit and radar through cockpit and avionics ini tweaks for semi-realism (See note #2)
      - Templates for gunsight and radar scope
      - Improves glass texture (If possible)
      - Accessibility - Optional, includes the AAM firing cue on gunsight for people who can not hear the sounds of missile locking on targets.
      NOTE #1: Due to the nature of lighting system inside cockpit in SF2 engine, I had to apply the darkness level on top of texture scope, in order, to prevent them from glowing.  In templates, you will see "darkness" layer for this reason.

      Menu and HUD font has changed and I don't know why
      By TheRealJuralumin
      I don't really know how this happened, but the font for the menu and HUD has changed, text is now slanted and some letters and words are getting slightly cut-off, it's not game breaking in the slightest, but it is a bit annoying as some things have proven difficult to read. I will attach some screenshot examples. If anyone knows why this has happened and how I can fix it, it would be very much appreciated!

      How to change callsign numbers?
      By JamesWilson
      Hi everyone,
      I was wondering how to customize the numbers after your callsigns, since it always gives me the same ones.
      I think i managed somehow once, a bit of time ago, but now i forgot and have no idea how to.
      I'm not talking about how to customize the callsign name, but the unit number after it.
      As you can see in the Roster and in the picture under, i get "Fast Eagle 1-1" and "Fast Eagle 1-2"
      Here are some examples:


      The numbers on the tail, wing and nose numbers are customized, cause i managed how to change them, choosing them individually for each unit in the mission file by changing "AircraftNumber=" and typing the number, like "2" (as for 202). It doesn't change by typing the whole number tho, like 202 by typing 202, but it goes by typing the number that corresponds to the list of numbers you have. For example, In a list that goes from 200 to 400, you will have to type 10 to get 300. Here i just typed "2" and "7" since the list starts from 200


      IIRC, in the past i just used to type the Aircaft number just like that, and in-game i had the proper number after the callsign, like "Fast Eagle 102", not just the number displayed on the plane livery.
      How do i do? I'm pretty sure that it's possible to have "Fast Eagle 102" on my screen HUD and in the Roster
      Thanks in advance for helping me.
