I have no GUI reading why?

[Rigsby]

I noticed by watching some other videos that I have no GDI readouts. You know the one I mean the one that shows speed, altitude.. ect. I have it displayed on my left screen along with the map, but it doesn't tell me what speed I am at or anything. Is there another key command or something I must press to get it to start giving me readouts? It's just very hard learning to fly if I don't know any of this. Take a look at the pic I uploaded. Thanks!!

Expert difficulty selected?

 

If so, that'll do it.

Yup set it to custom mode and check what you want but you will have your speedbar working.

It won't display with custom mode either if you leave instrument panel unselected. I don't have any readout with custom, but the only two items I have selected are autopilot and engine warmed up. Pretty sure "Instrument Panel" provides readouts.

[1./KG4_Blackwolf]

Huh, well I set it to expert didn't see the speedbar readings so I set it to custom and check only a few and I have it working

I thought  instrument panel was like IL2 cockpit "always on" I guess I need to test this

I would be nice if we could see what the settings are for normal and expert when we click them.

You're right FM,  instrument panel is the speedbar.

[FuriousMeow]

Nice, I thought it could be instrument panel - but wasn't sure.

 

I think that the green color coded boxes are the selections that normal difficulty selects, in addition to the red one. And the one red color coded box is the only one selected with expert difficulty. I think, not sure.

 

EDIT: Red/orange? I'm not actually sure what color that is.

I'd agree with this.

[1./KG4_Blackwolf]

Yeah that seems right.

[FlatSpinMan]

I agree it would be helpful to see clearly what Normal and Expert include.

I think the colour coded box thing is pretty clear but yes, room for improvement.

Make a suggestion mate

 

None of this is the finished article yet as Jason has already mentioned

I guess that whole box with the settings should be visible even when you click on Normal or Expert mode, but as soon as you change something, it should switch to custom mode.

[1./KG4_Blackwolf]

Or just be greyed out so you can see it but not click it.

Gotta say, the 0 points for custom mode baffles me somewhat. So, I choose harder settings than 'normal' but easier than 'expert' but lose all ability to gain victory points?

Yes, this was really odd. Also, the navigation markers are enabled on expert mode? Does that mean in expert multiplayer servers everyone will see navigation markers?

[1./KG4_Blackwolf]

Oh I hope not..maybe the server can control this.
