Little red square in arcade mode

[Jerec]

Does somebody know the name of the texture of the red square around the targets in arcade mode? I would like to change it into green.

 

Thanks!

Jerec for what plane do want to change?

 

Each aircraft has it's own template file that you edit to change things.

 

"C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\Su-25T\Cockpit\Scripts\ARCADE\arcade_template_hud.lua"

"C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\F-86\Cockpit\Scripts\ARCADE\arcade_template_hud.lua"

"C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\Ka-50\Cockpit\Scripts\ARCADE\arcade_template_hud.lua"

 

Inside the file is this bit.

 

target_airborne = CreateElement "ceTexPoly"

target_airborne.name = "target_airborne"

target_airborne.vertices = {{-trg_size_x, -trg_size_y},

{-trg_size_x, trg_size_y},

{ trg_size_x, trg_size_y},

{ trg_size_x, -trg_size_y}}

target_airborne.indices = default_box_indices

target_airborne.material = _T_RED_

target_airborne.tex_params = {0.5, 365.5 / 512, tex_scale, tex_scale}

target_airborne.controllers = {{"draw_target_hud"},{"draw_iff_color"},{"you_are_the_target_blinking"}}

target_airborne.h_clip_relation = h_clip_relations.INCREASE_IF_LEVEL

target_airborne.level = DEFAULT_LEVEL + 1

target_airborne.additive_alpha = true

AddElement(target_airborne)

 

In bold is what you change from _T_RED_ to _T_GREEN_.

 

Edit the file with notepad++ and save to desktop. Copy from desktop back to original location. You will be asked by Windows Security to say Yes.

 

Other colors are defined in "C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\*Some AIRCRAFT*\Cockpit\Scripts\ARCADE\arcade_usefull_definitions.lua"

 

Yellow, pink, purple. etc are defined there.

 

Have fun.
