Hello sailor,
thank you for your interest in the Bandit 25R Info Hud.
This is a fully configurable Text Hud and shows Boatparameters on the boat and in WindCompass
It replaces the AutoAdjustVolume AddOn.
Features:
● 3 Hud locations on the boat - Autoadjust in Mouselook
● 6 Display Presets
● Spin, Gennaker, Jib, Main status and sail angle
● Sail Ratio (sail effectiveness)
● AWA (apparent wind angle)
● TWA (true wind angle)
● heading
● boat speed
● heel angle
● water depth
● adjust text height, color and opacity, short text option
● Autohide, if WindCompass in use
● Support for SailTrimDisplay in WindCompass PRO
● enables Find Boat function in WindCompass PRO
By default its located on the cabin hatch of the boat. It switches ON, when you start sailing.
Text is shown by using the standard BWind colors or you can select your own color.
The Info Hud works as well in conjunction with WindCompass PRO (v4.5 and up) which can
show, sail trim colors, angles, ratio heel angle and water depth.
WindCompass detects an Info Hud and shows the Info automatically.
While you wear the WindCompass PRO, the Autohide function disables the Info Hud text on the boat
and Compass shows this info instead. By default its enabled and can be changed in both devices:
- Click below WindCompass ring to switch it on/off (or minimize WindCompass)
- Long Click the boat hull to open Info Hud options and select 'Autohide'.
Installation:
------------
- Make a Backup copy of your boat
- Make transparent prims visible > press Ctrl-Alt-T (Firestorm) /see your viewer documentation/
- Edit the boat > Enable "Edited Linked"
- Select the "TMS Radar" (its located above cabin hatch below the boom)
- Drag the script ".B25R - Info Hud - Relay" in contents of "TMS Radar".
- Close the Edit Window
- Drag the script ".B25R - Info Hud" on the boat.
A possible previous Info Hud version and the AutoAdjustVolume AddOn will be automatically uninstalled!
Thats it!
