UPDATE 14/07/2023: Slightly increased luminosity of symbology
More Info on the .lua files in case you want to tweak the HUD to your preference
Using Notepad++ you can edit folowing:
SYMBOLOGY thickness:
MDG_strokesDefs in F-18_HUD\Mods\aircraft\FA-18C\Cockpit\Scripts\Multipurpose_Display_Group\Common\indicator
lines 3,4 and 18,19 not sure all 4 need to be edited, did all of them to be sure
FONT thickness:
fonts.lua in F-18_HUD\Mods\aircraft\FA-18C\Cockpit\Scripts
line 64 and 65 (thickness / fuzziness)
SYMBOLOGY / FONT colors and luminosity:
materials.lua in F-18_HUD\Mods\aircraft\FA-18C\Cockpit\Scripts
*There are usually 4 numbers, the first three are RGB values and the last one is luminosity (keep in mind the luminosity is also influenced by the thickness)
Symbology can be edited on the line 23 -> MDG_materials[MDG_SELF_IDS.HUD]
Font on the line 31 -> MDG_materials[MDG_SELF_IDS.HI]
*In the vanilla game the font and the hud uses the same material, here I separated them, creating font from "MDG_SELF_IDS.HI"
Installation:
JSGME ready, place the F-18_HUD folder in your _MODS folder.
