MFCD hard to read

[ex81]

Hi,

the green letters and numbers on the MFCD are hard to read. Even when I zoom in a lot.

Is there any way to change the color to black ?

For the A-10C there was a way to edit the .lua file , so the green HUD objecst showed up in black.

Maybe someone knows how this could be done.

I assume you mean the AMPCD in map mode? Because black text on the black DDIs would be less useful :)

Sorry for being not exactly enough.

Of course I mean the Map on the "down" screen. Green text is pretty unreadable.

I only asked because I was unsure if the F/A-18C has an MFCD somewhere I didn't know is called that :). Anyway, check the forum post I linked above. I think it is the same question and there are some answers.

Yes, you depress the middle OSB on the left column twice when the HSI is displayed.

 

You depress the the top left OSB on the top row when the SA page is displayed.

You missunderstood "ex81".

He didn't asked to switch off the MAP. He asked to change the color of the letters if the map is shown.

Brigth green letters are realy hard to read.

Indeed I did. Oops. No idea, but would venture a guess that if you can change the .lua file for the A10C, then you could for the F/A-18C. I don’t do stuff like that, so no help from me. Sorry for the confusion .

Ok, since people seems to have missed it somehow, I will repeat it here:

 

Just read this post

It has the instructions for how to change the text colors and how to dim the map, both of which you will want to use. Cheers.
