overspeed/stall warning bmps

Postby swordfish1227 » Tue Jul 31, 2007 8:54 am

where are the bmps for the stall and overspeed warning located?



I thought it might be fun to change what they say...

I'm not sure if they are actually bmp's. I think they're generated in-game. Could be wrong though...

Some are indeed bitmaps (such as the large squarish-type lights), that can be changed by modifying the gauge's bitmap. Others are text strings coded into .xml gauges - examples of the latter being the 747-400 and Lear 45 defaults in FS9. The latter can easily be edited by changing the text, just make sure whatever you replace it with contains about the same # of characters.

I was thinking of the ones that appear at the bottom of the screen...

maybe make the overspeed say "WAY TOO FAST"

Could you imagine changing the voice for the ground proximity and glide slope aural warnings?  :o

"Pull up . . . pull up . . . pull up . . . I SAID, PULL UP, YOU SUICIDAL PSYCHO!"  ;D

Just what we need, instrumentation with attitude.  ;)
