Hey kuertee, do you think it would be possible to do a small modification to the radar with a little indicator showing whether the ship is upside down or not ?
Easy way to tell is if the "arc" on the radar is not in the bottom-left quadrant.
This mod contains only one graphic file - and hence no actual functional code. But with its design, it can functionally let you know the orientation of your ship. :)
(5.1) Very strange. After I changed the UI scaling, the new radar texture also disappeared. So I turned everything back, still just vanilla radar. So out again - mod deactivated - loaded - saved - out - mod activated - in - and still no more radar texture: o Is there a trick here? :O
I'm installing via Vortex, but I also checked that the directory was created correctly (it is). The mod also appears in the game - just no effect.
so weird, eh? i wasn't clear on "So out again - mod deactivated - loaded - saved - out - mod activated - in ...". did you mean this? 1. deactivate the mod. 2. save the game. at this time the mod is not active. 3. activate the mod. 3. load that saved game.
I copied the "kuertee_ui_functional_radar_texture" folder into the game's "extensions" folder (not Documents) and the extension is set to on. I'm also using your UI Extensions and HUD mod and a ton of other mods.
I do not see any change to the radar texture. Any ideas?
Ah I see. I tried it out and it works splendidly when an identity quaternion is in play. So much easier than a MD-11 ND display with its confusing heading indicator and rotating gyro display.

Is this not how you find the mod to work?

+z/n is solid line with arrows
+x/e is a solid line without arrows
extrapolation of those two info suggests that the opposite directions are s and w
I like the idea of N,S,E,W indicators. I never could understand why factions kept building their stations upside down
