Fat-Alfie HUD

[mike-E-boy]

First i have to say this is just GREAT WORK!!!
But could you please make another version were mp/h and kp/h are changed? (Just if you have the time to do that)like on the picture:

[Iceman [U.S.]]

Some of the filenames that RoR uses for the HUD had changed from 0.36 to 0.37.

My HUD used dashboard.material and tracks.material, whereas RoR now uses ror.material for the HUD.

It was just a case of realising this, and merging the changes I'd made to dashboard.material and tracks.material into the new ror.material.

I've only corrected HUD2 for now (my unreleased version) - I'll try and find time to get v1.0 (the version I released) working this weekend.

Very cool. And such a simple error that no one had noticed yet. Good job on spotting that Alfie.

[Fat-Alfie]

Ok, I think this should work.

The attached file has all the required files to update the standard HUD to my v1.0

As always, back up your overlays.zip, materials.zip and textures.zip first.

Extract the contents of this new .zip to a folder,

then copy :

needlesmask.overlay
dashboard.overlay
needles.overlay

to your C:\Program Files\Rigs of Rods\resources\overlays.zip

---

Copy:

ror.material

to your C:\Program Files\Rigs of Rods\resources\materials.zip

---

Copy all the .png and .dds files to your C:\Program Files\Rigs of Rods\resources\textures.zip

[Fat-Alfie]

YAY, it works. I use to use this all the time and now i can again. the fact that its see though makes it easier for me and towing

Works like a charm, maybe having an optional pedal display could also work, like the bars in LFS.

[Brickman]

Thanks, works perfectly again

[MICRACER]

Thanks alfie works great.

[Jacknife]

Works and looks great, except its now highly inaccurate, check the screenshot to see what i'm talking about. Both RPM and speed is off.

I'd already done this, but unfortunately the position of the 'pedals' overlay is hard coded, so the sliders are locked to the very bottom of the screen. This looked pretty bad so I scrapped the whole idea.

Nothing's changed since the HUD's first release and the fix - v1.0 always was highly inaccurate.

v2.0 has accurate speed readout, as well as optional mph / kph bias, but that's not been released yet.

This should be included to new versions of RoR, its Awsome!

I dont know if you know this or what
Or if I was suppose to keep the original HUD files in there to but...
Take a look at the "T" truck info mph and the HUD mph
The truck info section says 54mph the HUD says 100mph

Ahh dont I feel like an idiot...
I didnt knnow if it was just mine or what...
Sorry bout that...
And Jacknife I was hauling a shipping container...Just cause I could

[Thatsnice]

heres a fix, try these

[Jacknife]

heres a fix, try these

That would work for temporary, but i'll wait for Alfie to fix his, because his tach goes up to 9k, which is better for all vehicles, not just diesels that rev 4k max. Also not to mention your version has Kph on the outside.

[Fat-Alfie]

Here are updated files for the speedo and tacho.

Both match the stock RoR dials in terms of range (i.e. tacho only goes up to 3500rpm).

MPH or KPH dominant speedo options too.

[Brickman]

Speed and RPM matches now
