I want that HUD.

[Woolie Wool]

Download FSPort 3.1.1 then.

[Commander Zane]

Didn't get it from it.

[Woolie Wool]

You did download sparky_hi_fs1, right? The sparky_hi_fs1 vp file comes with the FS1 HUD and a gray menu theme.

[Commander Zane]

Comes with FSPort, no way I couldn't have it but it doesn't show it anyway.

What exactly would "triple" be for the -spec_static flag?

[Galemp]

Make sure you're playing in high resolution (1024x768 or greater), too.

[Commander Zane]

1280 x 768.

I guess it would be -spec_static 3, but I decided to make it more permanent for Twist of Fate and edited the RGBI values of the suns so that the I (intensity) was 3.0 rather than 1.0.

[Commander Zane]

Strange...that didn't change anything.

[Commander Zane]

ERRG! DAMN YOUR NORMAL MAPS!
And I'm still not getting HUDs to display like that.
And that lighting, could you post your flag settings?

[Woolie Wool]

How do you manage to screw up so many things?

If your graphics card is decent (and not that one ATi model with the driver issues), you have the 3.6.10 mediavps (preferably MV_Complete), and normal maps are selected in the launcher, the normal maps should work fine.
The FS1 HUD should appear if you have FSPort 3.1.1 installed and selected as a mod
The lighting in Twist of Fate currently uses custom suns but can be replicated with -ambient_factor 17 -no_emissive_light -spec_static 3

By the way, you aren't using 3.6.9, are you? You shouldn't.

One?

No I'm not using 3.6.9, and from what I've read ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 has that support and I've had MV_Complete on my folder and all I get is a borked framerate for no graphics change.

And thanks for the flags.

Well considering how messy my Data folder was getting I did a fresh install and have all of the updated files from Turey's Installer.

Still no different HUDs.

If you're running the FSPort mod with sparky_hi_fs1 and have a build numbered 5000 or later, it will work.

[Galemp]

You do have the 3.1 Sparky, right? It should be HUGE.

[blowfish]

and have a build numbered 5000 or later, it will work.

Is this really a requirement?  I was running it on 4706 for a while (because of issues between the new shader code and OSX) and I'm pretty sure the new HUD worked for me...

[Woolie Wool]

Well, I haven't tested it in earlier builds, so I couldn't be sure.

Well that kinda defeats the purpose of saying it then   The general term "recent build" is used commonly enough

Woolie, you might want to get this:  Hud Presets

Turns that neon green hud into a more subtle olive, the way [V] intended, and has the other retail presets as well.
