NEW Realistic HUD for the Hornet

While we are on the subject, I've installed the HUD in the original acceleration F/A-18, and it works as advertised. I've done the same thing for the Captain Sim F/A-18D, however, the count down clock doesn't work. In otherwords, when I enter the TACAN and ILS frequencies for the Nimitz, I can navigate to the carrier and do an ILS approach, but when I open the radio panel and toggle the HUD clock to read time to intercept, all I get is: 00:00:00.0 . Can you or one of the other guys see if you get the same result. I would think that the functionality of the HUD clock would be independent of the aircraft. Thanks!

Hi Bill, the functionality of the HUD is independent of the aircraft. If you are talking about the timer that gives ETA (or ETE) to the VOR, it does not work with the carrier TACAN. This is something I overlooked but I will add it in any future updates of the HUD.

Neutrino,
Thanks! Yes, I"m talking about the ETE timer. I am a little puzzled. The ETE timer was working fine on my F/A-18A installation. So, I was expecting it to work with my F/A-18D installation as well. I'm on travel right now. I'll look into this a little further, when I get home in a couple of days. Thanks again!
Bill
SUBS17:
Awesome work guys one problem though for some reason the 3d pit buttons and switches are harder to press since I put this mod in.
Hamel:
Great work. Love it, no problems with the acceleration Hornet. Little problem with using the HUD with Captain Sim FA-18D. Even with the modified panel posted by neutrino if I use it on the "D" model I get two problems, undercarriage not showing (on ground and in air) but working and ailerons and elevators stopped functioning. Rudder still works???
Any ideas.
neutrino:
Could you check if you have this line in the [Vcockpit01] section of the panel.cfg:
gauge12=cs.fa18d!wload, 0, 0, 1, 1
