Weird... here it loads without error, and I just used HUD Selector to switch into it in-flight.

For what's worth, I re-uploaded the file directly from my AddOns folder into dropbox

Vimana HUD OXP v2.06 is available on the Expansion Manager and here.

Changes

Moves overriding of ship characteristics to VimanaShipOverrides OXP.
Fixes Repair System worldScript name.
Makes HUD compatible with HUD Selector.
Updates compatibility with Repair Bots 2.14, Shield Equalizer and Capacitors v1.6+, SniperLock Plus.
Changes Repair Bots, Shield Equalizer and Capacitos, SniperLock, Missile Analyser, Missile Beep, LMSS, Iron Hide and Auto Crosshairs from required to optional.
Makes it compatible with Shield Cycler Next v2.0+.
Adds a 12-MFDs version.
Makes it incompatible with Active Crosshairs OXP (it overrides the HUD's crosshairs).
Adds central dot to crosshairs.
Sets crosshairs before launch.
Adds docked version of the HUD, displaying info on the screen borders and leaving the screen centre free for Station Interfaces.
Keeps the Compass target when an ident or missile target is acquired.
Uses beacon label, if defined, for Compass target display
Doesn't display shield low warning in Torus Drive (for HardWay OXP users).

WARNING: Players that are using VimanaHUD v2.05 are advised to install Vimana Ship Overrides OXP before loading the saved game of a ship that has cargo based on the expanded capacity granted by v2.05, or cargo loss will result.

Vimana Ship Overrides OXP v2.06 is available on the Expansion Manager, in the category Ships, and here. It requires Vimana HUD, so it should be installed after it but before loading a saved game of a ship with cargo (empty ships are fine!)

The ship overrides in version 2.05 have been moved to a separate OXP, Vimana Ship Overrides, available on the Expansion Manager in the Ships category.

Those overrides make Vimana HUD the default HUD for many core game ships, and increase ship properties like cargo capacity, flight speed, number of pylons, energy banks.

The reason for the move is that some players will want to stay with the original ship's characteristics and can use HUD Selector to change their HUD into Vimana HUD.

Feedback is welcome, specially on the two MFD versions: size, placement, color and order of the MFD slots.

Known issues:

The two lower MFD slots in the 12-MFDs version should only be "populated" on widescreen monitors, or they will overlay the dashboard corners.
The comms and console areas in the 12-MFDs version overlay the red alert crosshairs borders.
The distance to target display in the centre of the upper dashboard border is left adjusted, not centre adjusted.

Vimana HUD v2.07 is available on the Expansion Manager and here.

Changes:

Fixes display of Repair System status.

No, no new lasers. The only new weapon I tried to add was the Vimana in the HUD, but that .oxp won't load on 1.90 - multiple and myriad murmurings about manifest problems (Vimana 2.05, 2.06 & 2.07).

Hi,

Could you send me the Latest.log for a failed attempt to use VimanaHUD?

Here it loads fine in Oolite 1.90 for Linux (I corrupted the manifest of the version I loaded to generated the log above).

If there's a bug in the Mac version, it's better to report it and see if somebody can track and solve it.

Do you need anything else? I can have another go with V-HUDs 2.06 & 2.07 and their latest logs if that is of use!

I can still load the original from Gnievmir's Polish website - complete with spelling mistake!!

Greetings!

I borrowed a MacBook, debugged VimanaHUD's manifest and got it to work on that machine.

I uploaded an errata of VimanaHUD-2.07.oxz to the wiki server, it should be available on the Expansion Manager... could you please give it a try?

I'm very afraid that the plist parsing idiosyncrasies of Apple will affect other plists besides the manifest: there are plenty of plists in most OXPs...

Cheers,

Dybal

No joy, I'm afraid!

Downloading Vimana HUD from within the Expansions Manager failed (as usual!). When I downloaded it from the file you'd tucked away within our wiki, I was able to then bung it in my ManagedAddOns folder. Did the same with Overrides and with your new Technical Reference Library oxz.

On loading I got the following emblazoned across the screen:

"VimanaHUD-2.07.oxz" does not have a valid manifest.plist and could not be loaded...
TechnicalReference Library appears to be a duplicate and so was not loaded (paraphrase)
Vimana Ship Overrides was not loaded as it requires "oolite.oxp.Gnievmire.VimanaHUD" which is not installed.

Latest.log gives the following:

No hurry!

By the way: both yesterday's version and the earlier version of the Technical Reference Library work fine on the dreaded AppleMac.

So:
VimanaHUD no (won't even download) - except the original one direct from the Polish website
BarrelRoll yes
Technical Reference Library both versions: yes

Posted: **Wed Dec 09, 2020 5:10 pm**

Vimana Hip Overrides OXP v2.07 is available on the Expansion Manager and here.

Changes

Fixes shipdata.plist for compatibility with Macs

I fixed the manifest for VimanaHUD and uploaded an errata to the current version - I didn't update the version number since for those that were able to install, it works, and those for whom the fix is intended weren't able to install at all.

Thank you Dybal!
I'll try it in a bit.

ETT Homing Beacon & NPC Equipment Damage also seem problematic.
You will see that your Sniperlock wrap seems to work fine (I've not tried it out yet).

When you work out what the issue is, how will you publicise it? I'd like to mention your fix in my Apple problems post.

Anyway, trying download NOW!

And it downloaded from the Expansions Manager!!

Thank you.

Asides my ever-present typos, the libraries in the Mac seems to be less tolerant of some things than the GNUStep libraries on Linux:

lists are enclosed in '(' ')' with items separated by ',' and there must not be a comma after the last item in the list.
objects are enclosed in '{' '}' and consist of pairs <key> = <value>. Each key/value pair must have a ';' at the end, even the last pair in the object, and if the object is a value in a key/value pair in another object, it's closing '}' must be followed by a ';'.

Feedback is welcome, specially on the two MFD versions: size, placement, color and order of the MFD slots.

Update:

Wiki page updated to
• explicitly mention the 12MFD version
• explicitly mention the docked versions for both 6MFD & 12 MFD

Note that "Vimana overrides" seems not to run on the AppleMac

12 MFDs? Is there any screen space left?

Yes there is! - and you don't need to use all 12 - just go for 8, say.

There are one or two other HUD with 12 MFDs.

Maybe some day if I have the energy I'll rejig the "HUDs images here" page to show all the options (warning messages/docked HUD/#MFDs/joystick accuracy indicator etc). ... or design a special HUD template (probably easier)

But I think there is more important stuff for me to do first!
