There are two parts to this mod.  You can choose to install just one or both.  I decided to make it separate because some people wants to keep the bright green HUD.

Haven't tested but I believe this will break IC.

 

Thinner HUD

Basically corrects the default HUD textures to be more readable when you increase INTEN.

Difference is more apparent in VR.  Shots below are with Full INTEN.

This also thins out HMCS symbols such as the SOI wedding cake symbol.

Darker HUD

I know there has been debate on whether it's realistic or not but I just can't see anything in the HUD in a lot of situations.  This keeps the green HUE but makes it darker.  You can decrease INTEN for lighter green.

DOWNLOAD

 

INSTALL:

Extract the MOD folder of each version into main DCS install path.

If using OvGME, just extract the zip into your OvGME Mods folder.

 

 

Updated 2020-12-9:  Had to revert HMCS back to bright green because same green was used for night and day.  And dark green wasn't visible at night.

Now that is incredibly useful. Thanks for that.

One quesion that comes immediately to mind, is it possible to change the colour of the text under objects in the HMCS, e.g. waypoint names?  At the moment, in order to see them, I have to put the aircraft frame in between me and the waypoint.

Can't seem to get this mod to work. Ovgme says it's not a valid mod archive. I've put it under the A10c-II folder and in the DCS World OpenBeta folder but still no joy.

Because it's two mods inside one zip.  You can't use the zip as is.  You need to extract each folder inside the zip into your OvGME folder.
