AMPCD difficulty

I've submitted a Mod to Eagle Dynamics for hosting in their User Files, that fixes all the readability problems with the AMPCD and the MFD's in bright light.

Here's the before:

And here after applying the mod:

To install the mod you will only need either OVGME (easiest) or manually replace the files (but will need to re-do this after each update of the Hornet).

It passes integrity so no problem with Multiplayer and it's been tested in VR.

The colours chosen were to remain still visible in all lighting and against all different map layouts (e.g. red lettering alone, washes out and becomes unreadable at high scales of the Caucasus and Persian Gulf maps and white washes out over almost all landmass maps except water)

Great stuff ! But where is the red-lettering on the before shot? And since you are fantastic on these mods, would you mind slapping in Vulkan while you are breezing through these?

What red lettering?

EDmhave Vulcan in hand, just be patient ;)

This is a "Massive" improvement, a true work of art.

Many thanks Elphaba.

Edit - Just noticed something. If you put the EW page on the AMPCD the circles don't show up. Text etc is all there but not the concentric circles.

Version 1.1

Fixed an issue where the SA page on the AMPCD wasn't showing the correct Data Link iconology.

Please re-download and replace. Apologies for not spotting that but I needed to fly with some friends and could only do that tonight as I had food poisoning yesterday.

That fixed it. V1.1 working great. Thanks again for the mod.

You're most welcome. Glad you're enjoying it. That made it worthwhile.

will these improvements eventually find their way into the product normal patches? i have applied a bunch of patches/mods in the past and they get x-nayed at next patch.

looks like they don't work anymore with latest OB (2.5.6.55960)

Lower the screens gain value, Bob's ur uncle. The button works now. Makes it way easier to read.

I've used your mod for a while now and love it. Thanks.

Still works for me but i'm using the old version instead of the latest 1.1 version. Now, i'm afraid to update.

I get the a better result by deleting all the following:

 

opacity_sensitive_materials =

{

MDG_font_name(MDG_SELF_IDS.HI),

MDG_material_name(MDG_SELF_IDS.HI),

"MPD_DMC_OUTLINE",

"font_MPD_DMC_outline",

"font_MPD_DMC_main",

}

Yes, i think it's a better way. And i set it to NGT mode, the readability is very good.
