AOA index brightness, and BALL a HUD.

[Fish]

Hi all, 

Is there any way to 

1. reduce the AOA indexer brightness, and (adversely affects visibility on boat lights),

2. disable the FLOLS symbology coming up on the screen (same as above, but also impacts on immersion). 

 

Cheers.

Sure, just use the AOA brightness knob which you can find below the knob for HUD brightness:

Not yet, but an option to deactivate this overlay is already planned or in developement by DCS. Watch this thread:

You can remove the FLOLS by editing the lua files - there is a file called FLOLS.lua in the super carrier folder, in there there is a flag - something like “FLOLS.visible(val)” - change val to false. At work right now but if I remember I’ll update this with the exact file path and line this evening.

As an aside I actually prefer it off - have no trouble seeing it on the carrier with my G2 and it forces you to keep head forward and track it right to the deck.

File can be found in : {DCS}\Mods\tech\Supercarrier\PLATCameraUI\FLOLS.lua

Change the value in line 41 from

FLOLS:setVisible(val) to

FLOLS:setVisible(false)

 

function show(val)
	FLOLS:setVisible(val)
end

I guess you have to repeat this after each update. Don't know if integrity check fails if you change this option.

It does not break integrity check

Cheers for the replies. 

Have changed the lua, will try it later.
