1. DDz Quorum Friar Posted April 4, 2010 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 Hi Guys, For those of you that might want to add a bit to the feeling of immersion, (and dont know about this little trick) I have found a way to cut down on the messages that are displayed on the right hand side of the screen. Via the conf.ini you can either turn them on or off. This gives you a few more options.. The file, located in the folder (for me "Ultrapack 2.0" is where my install is) C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Ultrapack 2.0\Files\i18n\ and is called "hud_log_ru.properies" 1. - MAKE A BACKUP OF THE FILE! 2. - Open the file in notepad. 3. - You can now change or remove the text in the right hand column. DO NOT DELETE THE LINE COMPLETELY I have removed the obvious things like "Engine starting, Canopy open etc. I have also removed Enemy Plane Destroyed, just to make it surprise when I get the scores! Have a go, see what you think, if all else fails you can go back to the original file....you DID make a backup before trying this..didn't you?.

JensenPark Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 back ups are like briefs and the Easter Bunny. You here kids talk about them...but you are pretty sure they don't exist in the real world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1. DDz Quorum Sid Posted April 4, 2010 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 Yeeeah, another convert ! Since I've been running the instrument gauges and warning lights on another monitor via UDPSpeed I've not been using the messages having switched them off via 'IL2 Stab'. Very immersive, and like you say, not knowing if you hit or downed anything makes for a surprise at the end of the mission. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you run it with Sans FOV? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1. DDz Quorum Sid Posted October 12, 2010 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 No, I don't use Sans FOV, just the extra computer and monitor. It runs at 1024 x 768 resolution as this is what the UDP gauges I use are built for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snacko Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Nice find Friar! At first I just assumed this was just about the flag in the conf.ini. But this is much better.. To start off, I am changing these Friendly killed messages so I feel better: FriendAircraftDestroyed Enemy Ace: Obliterated by your Superior Skills! FriendStaticAircraftDestroyed Enemy Ground Aircraft shot to bits! FriendTankDestroyed Killed another Can FriendCarDestroyed Wasted more bullets? FriendArtilleryDestroyed Your bravery knows no bounds! FriendAAADestroyed Guts like yours are unknown to mortal man. FriendBridgeDestroyed Enemy Bridge: Weee! FriendWagonDestroyed Enemy Train turned to trash FriendShipDestroyed Enemy Ship go Boom!

FriendJU52Destroyed You nailed that Spit from 900m away REAL good there Ace! Don't know why the colours change? Because the 'code' tag attempts to syntax colour text, in the forlorn belief that the poster will only use it to present php and/or other geeky code nuggets I sometimes wonder if it my eyes playing tricks on me too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
