DCS SA342L Gazelle T100 HUD Mod

[Marky3254]

Little mod which alters the SA342L to look like the more minimalist Thales T100 aiming and firing head-up display. As this is my first DCS mod constructive criticism, ideas etc welcome.

Interresting. Thanks. Going through the doc, this sight is actually motorized and can adjust the elevation automatically from the input of the target distance by the pilot through a panel. This works for both rockets and gun. There is also an integrated symbology indicator for torque overload and radalt warning. Would be an awesome add on later from polychop.

Yeah it would be rather neat to have a fully working T100 control panel, warnings and contrast or opacity adjustment etc.

Great work! One suggestion for another variant, to put a faded R / C in the lower corner to display if Rockets or Cannon has been selected.

[Marky3254]

Cheers Schmidtfire. Yes I will do that variant, I was looking into doing so when I noticed the cannon reticle and rocket one are not exactly in the same place and part of the cannon reticle's edges are clipped. I think it's something to do with positioning in Sights_page.lua. My health isn't that good atm so it'll have to wait until I feel better...

Two new versions uploaded. The Weapon Indicator version displays a small R or a C to indicate which weapon you have selected.

Cool. I allowed myself to add your idea in the improvement thread of the polychop/gazelle one. I also briefly discussed it with Poly Roie in case this could come later as an option for the Gazelle.

nice work, looks really nice :)

BaD CrC: I've just read the thread, thanks... It would be good to see the T100 HUD fully implemented.

 

mithandra: Cheers.
