SMH Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 At least a statement by ED on the matter would be appreciated. Agreed! If you don't want to keep editing the lua file to take it out you can also just grab it by the top and drag it almost off the screen into a bottom corner. A bit of it will still be visible though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nealius Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 I put the lua file in a mod manager so I just have to run the mod manager, add/remove the mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Kazansky Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 When using a 4k big screen the overlay is obsolete and heavily destroying immersion. Dear ED, please add a checkbox to disable the overlay. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharkku Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 (edited) Poor prioritization by devs. They have a list of fixes that they are working through in order, no matter what. This is literally a 5 minute job, that would make a lot of people happy. But it doesn't get done, because there are other things on the prioritization list, and noone cares to move it up the list. It is utterly ridiculous. I guess I'll keep editing the file after each update... Edited December 20, 2020 by Sharkku 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time when in our server, you will have to share what file you are editing to get rid of the overlay - I'd love to get rid of that as well.

Always puzzling why this can't be a "feature" to disable rather than editing .lua files. So many things like this with DCS - at least there is a fix for us in the interim (or forever).

TOMCATZ Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Hi, I really love DCS carrierOPS ! Driving the Cat and the Hornet- all is perfect. But I really don`t like the FLOLS-overlay. Think it`s disturbing while landing. I can see the meatball clearly through my VR and the LSO working fine. So - please ED, create a switch to turn it off in menu. Incomming new clouds+ switchable FLOLS layer= verry happy and close to perfect to me. Cheers Tom Born to fly but forced to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolds Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 7 Months later and this unwanted game feature still pops up while I'm on final. To put this feature in in the first place, fine whatever. We can turn off labels, BDA, all sorts of non-sim things. But making this one mandatory strikes me as terribly far away from what DCS should be about.

If you want to remove the FLOLS overlay which pops in your cockpit just before landing: - close DCS - go here C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\tech\Supercarrier\PLATCameraUI - open FLOLS.lua in admin mod (with Notepad++ for example) - line 41, replace "FLOLS:setVisible(val)" by "FLOLS:setVisible(false)" - save, close and restart DCS And put "false" to "val" to revert Cheers, Ziptie 1 i7 6700 @4ghz, 32GB HyperX Fury ddr4-2133 ram, GTX980, Oculus Rift CV1, 2x1TB SSD drives (one solely for DCS OpenBeta standalone) Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS, Thrustmaster Cougar MFDs Airframes: A10C, A10CII, F/A-18C, F-14B, F-16C, UH=1H, FC3.
