Replaces the green font with a clean white font while maintaining green symbology for optimal contrast. Improves readability and ease of use when display is cluttered by making fonts and symbology easily distinguishable.
This mod will no longer be updated and all focus will be towards

Will still update for compatibility.
It also adjust font thickness and outlines for the MPDs to make the map usable again, especially for VR users. Just make sure to reduce the GAIN to your liking.
Note: This mod does not reflect an actual MFD upgrade, but more of a fictional one tailored to my preferences. Also, the screenshots were captured using Harker's Hornet LCD screens textures (highly recommended - please refer to the instructions below for more details)."
For all white font to replicate F/A-18E/F Super Hornet's MPDs, check out Harker's MPD mod.

MULTIPLAYER COMPATIBILITY
*PASSES PURE CLIENT INTEGRITY CHECK AS LONG AS SERVER DOES NOT REQUIRE PURE SCRIPTS AND PURE TEXTURES - CHECK SERVER DESCRIPTION*
BEFORE INSTALLATION:
-I highly recommend installing textures that includes LCD style MFD. I recommend Harker's LCDs which also includes realistic reflection. You can get it fr om here.
https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3306396/
Follow the instructions for the textures only as this mod already includes Harker's FLIR.
-Another alternative is Just Duff's Canadian CF-18 Cockpit textures which you can find here.
https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3320993/
However, it also overhauls the entire cockpit to CF-18.
INSTALLATION:
-The mod is (OVGME/JSGME) ready so open the folder of the version you want (Regular or VR Version) and extract "FA18 WHITE FONT MFD" in your preferred mod manager folder.
*TIPS:
-The VR version has darker and thicker AMPCD outline. If you have a high resolution headset, I suggest testing both regular and VR version. 2D users might also like the VR version.
-The AMPCD HSI works best with GAIN set to lowest (ROCKER SWITCH BOTTOM LEFT OF AMPCD).
