HUD Only View

[trujillostm]

How to configure to see Shkval + Abris maximized on screen in HUD Only View, and deactivated in the cockpit for better FPS.

 

1. ViewportHandling.lua

C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS Black Shark 2\Scripts\Aircrafts\_Common\Cockpit\

 

A. Changing the default value of 0.5

 

-- positioning on screen in HUD Only view

function update_screenspace_diplacement(aspect,is_left,zoom_value)

local aspect = aspect or 1

local zoom_value = zoom_value or 0

local default_width = 0.78 * LockOn_Options.screen.height + (64 * zoom_value)

[...]

if default_width > 0.78 * LockOn_Options.screen.width then

default_width = 0.78 * LockOn_Options.screen.width

end

[...]

 

B. Eliminating render_purpose.GENERAL

 

[...]

purposes = {render_purpose.HUD_ONLY_VIEW,

render_purpose.SCREENSPACE_OUTSIDE_COCKPIT,

render_purpose.SCREENSPACE_INSIDE_COCKPIT}

 

2. ABRIS_init.lua

C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS Black Shark 2\Scripts\Aircrafts\Ka-50\Cockpit\ABRIS\

 

Eliminating render_purpose.GENERAL

[...]

purposes = {render_purpose.HUD_ONLY_VIEW}

 

3. SHKVAL_init.lua

C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS Black Shark 2\Scripts\Aircrafts\Ka-50\Cockpit\SHKVAL

 

Eliminating render_purpose.GENERAL

[...]

if LockOn_Options.flight.easy_radar then

purposes = {render_purpose.HUD_ONLY_VIEW,

render_purpose.SCREENSPACE_OUTSIDE_COCKPIT}

else

purposes = {render_purpose.HUD_ONLY_VIEW}

end

Advantages:

We do not need another monitor.

Not increase the resolution size to cover that second monitor.

We increase the fps to eliminate rendering the screens in the cockpit.

We increased the default size of these screens in the HUD Only view View.
