mod/script Remove blue hud icons around all ships 3D Vision is it possible

Post by SolutionGaming »

Hi all, ive been playing X2 with 3D Vision and the results are amazing, unfortuantly the experience is lessened in the X3 series, by all the blue hud diplays round every ship.

Is their a mod / script out their OR how easy is it to make one

that will remove all hud icons apart from the one currently targetted?

could their be a toggle key to toggle them on and off?

worse case remove all together even on targetted items

any opinions/fixes most appreciated.

I have made a website with 3D solutions which include the Excellent X2: The Threat

You can edit the hud texture file and 'remove' them all or change them to something smaller, like only a small dot left instead of the full lines. Can't check now, but if I remember right the file was named gui_master.dds and it's in the first .cat file.


I for myself for example always change everything that's red to plain white, it's easier to see on the mostly black background.

thankyou

Could you please go into more detail, about how to configure and what to change.

I have found "The Mini-HUD by Neuman15 "

which is great but would love also to be able to edit the file you mentioned. Which I couldn't find :-(

That's not possible. But you can, as silenced said, tweak the hud-texture.
Making only the targeted HUD icon appear should be also possible (the highlighted icon is different then the normal of course)

The file is somewhere in the catalog files in your X3TC maindirectory.
Take a look at the Tutorial section, you can find a tutorial to those files there

Edit: Just edit the file in the Minimal HUD mod, because it is the same file you are looking fore ;)
