[RELEASE] MilHUD 4000

Wildeblood · Post by **Wildeblood** » Thu Jun 28, 2012 5:50 pm

M4000 version 1.1.2 fixes a stupid bug with which the high-contrast centre patch was being reset to medium brightness on every launch, instead of its setting being saved. (I can't believe no-one complained to me about that.

) Also there is a method to over-ride the breakable scanner from within the game - no need to poke around inside the OXP - for players who don't like breakable equipment.

When using this HUD recently, the witchspace countdown and cycling through N-key equipment is set at just behind the compass. Maybe I did something wrong with the sniper sight or its the resolution I'm using (1280x768).

I'm guessing you're also using AI Trading Assistant, which moves the messages to the lower-left corner so they aren't written over the market data? As I wrote a month ago:-

That means your flight HUD is missing a definition for the message interface, so once it's changed on the market screen, it stays changed. I must admit here that MilHUD 4000 is one HUD that also lacks such a definition, and suffers this problem. I've been meaning to update it for weeks.

And I'm still full of good intentions, but have no time for Oolite recently.

Sorry, not for the time being. I took all my OXPs down and I'm just re-uploading them one at a time as I get around to testing/fixing them for Oolite 1.77.

In the first post, top of thread, up there ^. Where it says:-

Download MilHUD 4000 OXP here.

The link should take you to a download file called milhud-4000_1.1.1_oxp.zip, and Sniper Sight 2.0.3 is now bundled into the same OXP (There are two READ ME files in the .zip, but only one OXP). If you've got an older version of Sniper Sight remove it or you'll have no scanner on screen. The scanner in MilHUD 4000 version 1.1 turns cyan to maximize contrast with hostile ships during combat, as previously, but now turns bright red during other red alert conditions, such as low altitude or overheating. Also, for a bit more of a combat challenge, the scanner can now be knocked out temporarily during combat, and will blank out, but will reset itself once combat is over (assuming the player survives).

The link appears dead, are there any other links to this hud, I'd like to try it....?

Okay, I'll re-upload version 1.1.2 later tonight and PM you the link, and you can tell me if it works okay with Oolite 1.77.

Hmm. So I finally added the message and communications log definitions to M4000, so it will be compatible with AI Trading Assistant, started it up and found some javascript exceptions in my Latest.log file, which I think I've fixed, so it should now be usable with Oolite 1.77, and gave it a stupid, long version number.

M4000 version 1.1.2.2

I'm trying this new version and found a problem with the log screen alignment.

Thanks for helping out, Tichy. But let me be clear, this is not a new version. If I were making this now, for Oolite 1.77 only, it would be very different.

What is your complaint about the comm log alignment? As far as I know the message gui and comm log gui definitions are the same as Oolite's default HUD.

I noticed that the text goes out of the blue background and both are detached from the top of the screen.
I don't know if the last one is intentional, but the text going out of the background looked strange to me.

Not sure where this post goes, and can't find answer anywhere.

I've been using milhud 4000 for a while on a number of different ships and want to either use the defaults for each ship or try out some other huds. I've deleted the milhud oxp but everyship still uses it. How do I get rid of it?

I have tried the shift down while reloading to force reading all oxp's back in, but it's still there!

Another question - how do I force a particular ship to use a particular hud?

Are you using Linux?

If it's a normal, unscripted HUD, just by adding hud = "myHUD.plist"; to the shipdata.plist.

Yes using Ubuntu 12.04 and want to try out the HoloNumHud. I guess it is a scripted hud because there are lots of .js files
