CREDITS:This mod is built upon the 'PAL HUD Config with BombSight Assist' Mod by benitomuso/PAL/Pablo. The version used is the one included in the Visual MOD 9 for v4.12.2 (2016-04-11) that can be found here:
Visual MOD V9. Cheers benitomuso, NG-HUD would not exist if it wasn't for your hard work. I hope to see you back in (IL-2 modding) business soon!
Credits also to the SAS admins and SAS members for their support in the SuperSchool, testing, comments, bug-reports, feedback... Thanks!
Special thanks to greybeard, my wingman, for tireless testing sessions, constant feedback and support. NG-HUD is what it is thanks to his observations, comments and inputs.
Last but not least, thanks mission4today.com admins for hosting mod!
FIRST THINGS FIRST:- This mod is certified for offline 4.12 (SAS Modact / HSFX / VP-Modpack / B.A.T.) and 4.13 (SAS Modact). It has not been tested in other game mode, version or super mod.
- You do not need to add or edit any conf.ini settings. NG-HUD works 'out of the box' and it will not conflict with any settings you may already have from other mods. You can switch between the NG-HUD and other HUD mods anytime.
- The 'Toggle Speed Bar' controls key is your best friend. I have it mapped to 'H' (for HUD). It will switch between International / Imperial (knots) / US Customary units / Simple Mode and will further hide the HUD completely if you require more immersion or take screenshots.
THE CHECKLIST:In order to enjoy all features of this mod as intended enable/disable the settings below.
Game settings (can be activated/deactivated anytime during a mission):
- (ENABLE) Setup > Mis Settings > HUD > Show Subtitles
- (ENABLE) Setup > Mis Settings > HUD > Show HUD Log
Mission/Campaign difficulty settings (cannot be changed during a mission/campaign):
- (DISABLE) Difficulty > Views > No Speed Bar
Deactivate it to get all NG-HUD features! Otherwise you will get a 'light' version of NG-HUD
This is a list of controls you will use often to interact with the HUD:
- Toggle Speed Bar (International units / Imperial in knots / US Customary)
- Toggle Icon Types (AI icons: Range + Type + Callsign)
- Toggle Taxing Guide Line (Taxi to runway virtual aid)
- Toggle Map (Mini map + NG-HUD Navigation aids)
- Toggle Comms (Orders + NG-HUD Aircraft info)
- Pause Game (Pause + Mission info)
To change cockpit positions I recommend the following controls:
(X) Jump to Cockpit #1 (Pilot) - X marks the spot!
(C) Pilot or Gunner position
(V) Gunsight/Bombsight
That way you can easily go to the Bombsight from any view with a simple X-C-V combination...
INTRODUCTION:The Next Generation HUD (NG-HUD for short) departs from the PAL HUD Config with BombSight Assist Mod in many ways. Most of the code has been revised, many parts re-written or discarded and in addition, it comes with an array of new features that I hope you will find useful. One of the highlights of the NG-HUD is a fake text drop-shadows technique to improve readability. The result is quite noticeable and on-screen text looks and reads better than ever!
Check the information below and have fun with the mod. And remember, if you miss any info... Check the gauges!
The Speedbar:Speed, altitude, heading and more!
- New background with new icons
- Background icons will show a reddish/bluish tone depending on the Army of the player/actor. Neutral are white.
- New G warning to add immersion (internal views only)
- Speed will turn yellow when close to VmaxAllowed and will turn red when exceeding VmaxAllowed
- Switch between IAS and TAS speed by activating the mini map
- Vertical-speed indicator besides the altitude
- Altitude and vertical speed will turn yellow when exceeding -100 m/s and will turn red when exceeding -200 m/s
- New sector indicator besides the heading (for all actors!) Based on a work by 4S_Vega
- Night-Mode: icons & font brightness reduced during night operations
Cockpit indicators:Designed to display information on screen that is either of your concern or require your attention. Good care was put to avoid cluttering the screen with messages you don't need nor care about. Anything you will see on-screen is there for a reason.
Each indicator will be displayed above the speedbar only if it is a user-controllable feature of the aircraft, it is not damaged and it is engaged/enabled.
Available indicators:
- Attached / Smoke trails / Canopy / Hook / Bay doors / Tailwheel / Engine(s) selected
- Chocks / Gear / Wings / Flaps / Airbrake
- Navigation & Landing lights
- Stabilizer / Autopilot / Trim indicators
The Navigator:WARNINGThe EngineMod causes waypoints to be 'skipped' for no apparent reason. You may notice it when flying as Flight Leader. Any custom install or mod-pack that includes the EngineMod as of this release can be impacted, in example B.A.T. Linebacker (all modules) (Fixed in B.A.T. v3.5 Musketter) and VP-Modpack (JETWAR addon only). Find a temporal fix in Reply #149
Flying with an icon-less map is a thrilling but daunting task. Unless you spend a good deal of time studying the briefing and taking copious notes you just don't know where to go next. Because flying without map icons is so immersive, NG-HUD gets new navigational skills! You no longer have to focus on an icon, dot or line but on your surroundings and actual geographical features of the map. A map without icons is a new world ready to be explored...
Review 'THE CHECKLIST' section above and optionally enable/disable map icons/path at will. Bring up the mini-map to get detailed information of your current goal.
:: FLIGHT MEMBERS ::There can be up to four members in your Flight: Flight Leader / Flight Wingman / Element Leader / Element Wingman
External views info has been enhanced should you need to identify who's who in your Squadron...
:: BEING A LEADER ::When you are the (real or virtual) Flight Leader, bring up the mini-map and you will get:
- Next / Single / Final waypoint + distance + ETA
- Waypoint type + Altitude
- Heading to the next Waypoint + waypoint sector location
As the Flight Leader you must 'check' each and every waypoint for the navigator to switch to the next one. Remember that you can optionally change to the next/prev waypoint via Orders Menu anytime when being a (real) Flight Leader (Flight No. > Navigation)
You should be able to follow the predetermined route without much trouble with the navigation helper. Mission Abort!? Don't panic: forget about the waypoints and request a vector to home base.
Needless to say that your Flight must have the required payload to carry out an Air Strike, otherwise the "Ground Attack" waypoint will be ignored...
:: FOLLOWING A LEADER ::When you are not the (real or virtual) Leader, make sure not only to follow your appointed Leader but to also follow orders! You will have on-screen:
- Orders from your Leader
- Leader to follow + Altitude
- Heading to your Leader + Leader sector location
Real vs Virtual Leader scenarios:
- When you are the real or virtual Flight Leader you are in charge of your Flight.
-Flight members will follow you. Make sure to 'check' all your waypoints.
- When you start as Flight Wingman the navigator points to the Flight Leader.
-The Flight Leader dies, you become the virtual Flight Leader (go to 1).
- When you start as Element Leader the navigator points to the Flight Leader.
-The Flight Leader dies, the navigator points to the Flight Wingman.
-The Flight Wingman dies or is dead, you become the virtual Flight Leader (go to 1).
- When you start as Element Wingman the navigator points to the Element Leader.
-The Element Leader dies, the navigator points to the Flight Leader.
-The Flight Leader dies or is dead, the navigator points to the Flight Wingman.
-The Flight Wingman dies or is dead, you become the Flight Leader (go to 1).
Some notes:
- Death refers to the aircraft not being in a flyable condition: critical damage, no fuel...
- When you are a 'virtual' leader your wingmen might follow but you cannot give orders. This is a game limitation.
- 4.13's Javelin Formation has been obviated to guarantee compatibility between game versions. Only a handful of 4.13 missions will be impacted.
And a couple of clarifications:
- The Navigator is limited to your Flight of up to four aircraft. Remember that you may be part of a Squadron and the Squadron Leader can have top-secret orders or different goals...
- When you engage the Autopilot your current waypoint can 'reset', or the landing waypoints can change dramatically. NG-HUD does not alter the game functionality in any way. When you enable the Autopilot your aircraft becomes an AI drone... My advise? Try not to use the Autopilot. Use the Level Stabilizer instead.
Bombardier / Bombsight view:- Background removed
- Removed "Horizontal distance to target" and "Time to target" values (I found them unnecessary and misleading)
- "Angle" renamed to "Optimal elevation"
- New Bomb-bay doors status (open/closed/auto)
- Stabilizer / Autopilot / Trim indicators
- New 'Turn indicator' above the Trim indicator. The Turn indicator will activate only when the Stabilizer is engaged. It displays the rate of change in the aircraft's heading and it is extremely sensitive. Maintaining a straight course on target has never been easier! (Thanks SAS~Storebror for the code!)
Gunner view:- AI-Enabled information when Autopilot Automation is off ('Toggle Level Autopilot' key)
- Machine gun type and bullet count in (manual) gunner position
Pause menu:- Time compression information when different than 1x
- Local time (24h/12h)
- Outside temperature (°C/°F)
- Mission time information
Most of the HUD elements will hide when you accelerate time starting with 8x. Don't be alarmed, it is a meassure to bypass thousands of calculations and boost performance with time compression. Pause the game while in ultra speed mode to unveil HUD elements. If you really need to have speed/heading indicators when you accelerate time switch to the Dashboard (non-cockpit) view.
External Views info:- GAME OVER message: Player dead / Player captured / Player bailed out / Aircraft inoperable
- Actor names: Squadron Flights and roles / other Friendly, Hostile, Neutral actors
Orders/Comms Pad:- New background (enlarged to accommodate long orders) and new icon
- Flight number and Flight/Element Leader/Wingman role
- Aircraft type, gross weight, remaining (internal) fuel and nitro percentages
- Powerplant information:
- Engine status (Off/Starting/Inoperable) / Output power
- Magnetos (hidden when 1+2 are selected)
- Engine temperature and Output oil temp percentage (above 100% the engine overheats)
- Radiator (C.E.M. only)
- Propeller Pitch (C.E.M. only)
- Mixture (C.E.M. only)
- Supercharger speed (C.E.M. only)
- Loadout presets and ammunition count (plus Drop tanks count)
- Directional beacons, Bomb & Torpedo info (stock features) moved to the orders submenus (just access any submenu, ie 'E'-Technical)
A small but useful ferature is a dynamic "Comms Tower" icon. The icon will be active when there are beacons or radio stations in the mission, otherwise it will be disabled:
Radio chatter subtitles:- Subs moved to the left side of the screen (single player only)
- Font color replaced with colored army badges (Ground control is orange)
- Small font size (subs are mostly chatter anyway)
MISC. CHANGES:- Bottom-right log: Background removed, position adjustments

- Chocks indicator removed when airborne to prevent a rare bug
- NG-HUD versioning number moved to the order's submenus
- Larger mouse pointer. Get back a smaller cursor by deleting:
NG-HUD/gui/game/cursors.tga
- Adjust in the conf.ini the HUD position. Useful for ultra wide monitors, three-monitor
setups and non-standard resolutions. Values are in pixels and defaults are 0.
Always use positive numbers! (distance from right, from left, from bottom, from top)
[Mods]
ngHUDleft=0
ngHUDright=0
ngHUDtop=0
ngHUDbottom=0
Note: the playing/recording timer gets created in a different class and will always be
located in the right-most size of the screen.
- Scalable HUD backgrounds and font position adjustments for ultra HD screens.
Change font sizes to your needs:
NG-HUD/font/arialb8.font // IL-2 FMB header
NG-HUD/font/arial8.font // IL-2 FMB body
NG-HUD/font/arialb10.font // IL-2 GUI header
NG-HUD/font/arial10.font // IL-2 GUI body
NG-HUD/font/arialSmallZ.font // HUD icons (aircraft range/type/callsign)
NG-HUD/font/hud.font // HUD text
NG-HUD/font/lcd.font // HUD non-cockpit view indicators (Ctrl+F1)
NG-HUD/font/sub.font // HUD radio chatter subs
---------------------------------------------
Ultra wide monitors and three-monitor setups:
---------------------------------------------
IL-2 uses the overall screen width to determine font sizes and that means you will probably
get by default a huge font size and you will have to adjust font sizes manually.
- Some pilots don't want to know the sector/grid they are in. You can now disable the sector
indicator in the conf.ini. Possible values are 0 (off) and 1 (on - default)
[Mods]
ngHUDsector=1
v3.1 - 04/09/2018
-----------------------
- Fixed a (Navigator) bug where certain takeoff/landing waypoints would not be displayed
- Lifted the restriction to have 'Realistic Navigation' enabled to use the Navigator
v3.0 Gold - 01/09/2018
-----------------------
ORDERS MENU:
- New night background
- New Flight number and Flight/Element Leader/Wingman information
- Aircraft type, Weight and Fuel (plus Nitro if available) merged into one line to save some space
- Hidden Fuel and Engine info from glider types
- New engine status: Off / Starting / Inoperable
- Magnetos indicator will not be displayed when the 1+2 are selected (magnetos don't do much anyway
and the indicator takes precious space when C.E.M. is enabled)
- For the sake of completeness Oil temperature (percentage) has been added to the engine monitor.
SPEEDBAR & COCKPIT INDICATORS:
- Again, for the sake of completeness I added the Tailwheel (locked) indicator: it will only be
displayed when the gear is lowered and the aircraft is near ground (or sea).
- Aileron, elevator and rudder trim indicators converted to keystrokes.
- Recalculated the moment the speed indicator turns yellow. Instead of using VmaxH, the formula
now is (VmaxAllowed - ((VmaxAllowed - VmaxH) / 2)). It should change to yellow less often.
- Fixed wrong sector Y reading (stock bug: NG-HUD now mimics this bug). The sector indicator works
now well in every map and situation. Since the grid coordinates are ok now the sector indicator
has become an integral part of the HUD and it cannot longer be disabled (ngHUDsector conf.ini
setting has been removed)
- ngHUDicons conf.ini option is no longer available either: The speedbar images and icon files can
be edited directly if needed.
- G-warning code revisited to be triggered only when the aircraft is airborne
- NG-HUD gets new navigational skills! Check "The Navigator" section in the Readme.
MISCELLANEOUS:
- 'No Speed Bar' (or hardcore mode) now also includes station names (bombardier, gunner...)
- Pause menu visible in Wonder Woman view
- New external views actor identifiers (members of your flight, other flights in your squadron...)
- Morse text repositioned to the middle-left (below the orders menu) and color changed to bright
yellow (thanks blackshark for the report!)

- New log entries: HUD units / HUD icons / Taxiing guide line
- HUD icons have now a bold typeface for better readability
- Log color brightness will progressively decrease/increase at sunset/dawn
- Bottom-right Log can be moved to the middle-right by adding lowInfoHud=0 to the [game] section of
your conf.ini. If you are in 4.13 you can change this setting in-game by enabling:
Setup > Mis Settings > HUD > Show Info HUD at Bottom of Screen
(you have to restart the game for this change to apply)
v2.7 - 01/07/2018
-----------------------
- Bug-Fix: lead bomber aircraft freeze in B.A.T. Dawn of Flight module
(Thanks vampire_pilot for the report!)

(ngHUDtas conf.ini setting has been removed and is no longer available)
- IL-2 GUI font sizes revised and changed for consistency and best (imho) readability
v2.5 - 20/04/2018
-----------------------
- NG-HUD v2.5 is now certified for offline 4.13 (4.13 OPB sight timer and speed info messages will
be missing)
- New Loadout presets and ammunition count in Orders menu (plus Drop tanks count)
- Bomb, Torpedo and directional beacons info (stock features) moved to the orders submenus (just
access any submenu)
- New Machine gun type and ammunition count in (manual) Gunner station
- G warning will now display an image instead of loading a whole font set.
- Code clean up: additional redundant code deleted. PAL HUD Config extra features removed to improve
performance. conf.ini settings below are no longer available (you can always switch to PAL HUD
Config mod if you need any of these):
