hello skipper,
Thank you for your interest in the Falcon Class Info Hud.
This is a fully configurable Bi-Color Text Hud and shows Boatparameters on the boat and in WindCompass PRO
If you installed my AutoAdjustVolume AddOn, this will be replaced by your new Info Hud.
Features:
● Jib and Main angle - optional in Bi-Color (BWind colors)
● Sail Ratio - sail effectiveness
● AWA (apparent wind angle)
● TWA (true wind angle)
● heading
● boat speed
● heel angle
● water depth
● 3 Hud locations on the boat - Autoadjust in Mouselook
● 6 Display Presets
● adjust text height, color and opacity, short text option
● Autohide, if WindCompass PRO in use
● enables Find Boat function in WindCompass PRO
By default its located in cockpit rear. It switches ON, when you start sailing.
Text is shown by using the standard BWind colors or you can select your own color.
The Bi-Color mode shows separate BWind colors for Jib and Mainsail.
Use Presets to show all or just selected info.
The Info Hud works as well together with WindCompass PRO (v4.5 and up) which can show
headsail- and mainsail trim colors, angles, ratio, heel angle and water depth.
WindCompass PRO 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. This can be changed in both devices:
- Click below WindCompass PRO ring to switch it on/off (or minimize WindCompass)
- Long Click the hull to open Info Hud options and select 'Autohide'.
Installation:
------------
- Make a Backup copy of your boat
- Drag this script onto boat.
(A possible previous Info Hud version and the AutoAdjustVolume AddOn will be automatically uninstalled!)
Thats it!
Options:
----------
- Click the tiller, to hide / show the InfoHud.
- Long click the hull to enter the Options menu. (The Boat menu may open too, you can ignore that.)
The Info Hud enters "Settings Mode" and shows a preview of your changes.
