thrustvector Posted October 17, 2018 Author Share Posted October 17, 2018 no, on the hud for example is green, see pic attached, but the map view is yellow, you can hardly read certain menus and options when on different parts of the map or lighting, if I could say change a file somewhere just to add a colour better for me at least to see?

thrustvector Posted October 18, 2018 Author Share Posted October 18, 2018 guys, look, I know this is probably not on anyone's priority list, but for me....and my eyes I can hardly see the yellow writing, especially when over certain areas of the map. if someone could just point me to a possible file with colour settings then I could change them myself.... or may be a mod :) thanks in advance....again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnv2pt0 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Can't test atm, but look here at the bottom of the script: DCS World\Mods\aircraft\AV8BNA\Cockpit\MPCD\indicator\MPCD_init.lua or maybe more likely the MPCD_definitions.lua. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrustvector Posted October 18, 2018 Author Share Posted October 18, 2018 thanks johnvpt0, ill check that out later :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnv2pt0 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Made time to test it lol, cause it's bugged me too. Those are the two lua you need to adjust. In MPCD_definitions.lua, change lines 58-73 as desired. I think you only need line 70 changed unless you want your maverick symbology to match and then you need 59 as well. In MPCD_init.lua, change lines 354-355 as desired. I find {255, 30, 30, 255} to be a not too harsh red color that's pleasing. (RGBA) This will probably fail the integrity check on multiplayer servers, so I'd recommend installing it via JGSME/OVGME so you can turn it on/off quickly. And of course, backup the files!
