Boeing GC HUD

[stephen spiers]

Hi All

I have the demo version to check out and I was wondering what the option HUD
Mode and HUD Mirrored mean?

I have checked the .ini file and it says to use "shift s" to switch the F1
display to HUD mode.

I can't get the function keys to work (is this a demo limitation?) and I can
not find any details about the HUD.
Has anyone got a screen dump of the HUD?

Does the HUD supeimpose over the outside view?

Thanks

Stephen

The mirrored mode means the display is mirrored on the Y
axis so that if you use a mirror to project the HUD, it will
be the right way around.

That is for the command before that...

DoubleAVSelect=Off
/ Allows separate control of
the
/ Standby RMI with Shift-E and
Shift-S

Which particular function keys do not work?

I think we have one on the site, but you should be able to
see it just by setting HudMode=On, running the Demo and
pressing F1. Or selecting it via the menu.

Not in FS... it has been added for those who can project a
HUD in their simulator, we are not creating a HUD in the FS
outside view, it doesn't quite work that way.

I also just noticed something was messed up in the Demo with
the selection of the HUD via the menu (press Esc for it)...
which is corretced if you download the Demo again.
