Just checking...you've un-zipped the file and put the .oxp folder into AddOns?

Not really an expert, I'm afraid. I haven't used alternative HUDs, but I'd expect it to just be there.
Hopefully someone who knows will read this thread.
Sorry I can't be more help!

Hi biffroy

In a ‘core’ ship like the Cobra, the Fighter Hud will just appear… I use it myself.
I have no knowledge of oxp ships… it’s probable that the Caduceus has it’s own specific hud and that’s what you get.
Hopefully an expert will pass by soon.

Have you got another HUD OXP in your AddOns directory? As I understand it, the last OXP found in the directory "ladder" is the one that gets used - so I had to rename TREKHUD.OXP so Oolite could use MilHUD-v3 as my HUD of choice.

Works fine with NeoCaduceus - I'm currently swanning around in a Caddy Omega (courtesy of a little creative reprogramming of a GalCop database and the docking logs aboard a Coriolis :twisted: - or did I just hack my savefile? Hmm... :oops:).

Blimey, can't believe I can help where someone with OXPs to their credit can't... :shock: :shock: :shock:
