edit HUD inof

[jeanba]

Hello

 

Is it possible to edit the info displayed on HUD such as ammo ... ?

I'd like to display info such as ammo as it takes too much room

Thank you in advance

 You can't edit it as such but you can drag it so half of it is off screen. Use CTRL, then put mouse cursor over the text, then drag with left mouse button held down.

You can keep some of the reported items visible that you like (top half or bottom half etc) depending on where they are.

Also you could shrink the font size used,  edit ui.xml found in root of WOTR  (default is C:\OBDSoftware\WOTR\OBDWW2 Wings Over The Reich )

Make a backup copy of the ui.xml fifirst!.

Look for

<HUDText colour="0xFF204090" fontSize="Small" backgroundScreen="n" dropShadow="n"/>

Using notepad open the file, then change the fontSize to "VerySmall"  and try that.  It must be in quotes, so becomes:

<HUDText colour="0xFF204090" fontSize="VerySmall" backgroundScreen="n" dropShadow="n"/>

Remember to save the file over the .xml file. (Make sure it’s not saved as a “.txt” file you may need to set “file type” in Notepad to *.* then add the .xml to the end of the file name (for example ui.xml before saving).
