It seems this is not a properly configured oxp. The link is to a file hud.plist which it is possible to d/l via right click and and save as...

Once you have the file it is not much use to you, but if you d/l one of the other hud oxp's, such as Dr_HUD's you will see how the oxp is built using the file, note that Dr_HUD also uses an image file for the flight console background which is not in the compact hud.

You may decide to go with one of the other huds that works straight out of the box or you may get seduced into making your own hud and be on the slippery slope to scripters hell.
