I wonder if this will work with the Stargate Studios AH-1W and the Alphasim AH-1W upon completion

Is the HMDS a borderless panel subwindow that is automatically opened when the aircraft is loaded?

[kdfw]

it's a borderless subpanel that has to be enabled with 'shift-1' so whenever changing views out of the vc and back, have to 'shift-1' again...

not conformal or anything like that, a poor man's hmds.

[Bjoern]

Don't beat yourself down over it. It's simple, elegant and efficient.

Would a "type=SPECIAL" entry help to keep the HMDS visible when changing views? Also what is the scenery used in the video? It looks like ORBX but what specific airfield is that?

[kdfw]

scenery is around 7wa3 west wind freebie in orbx pnw.

yes, adding type=special does make the gauge persistent in all views. thanks for that.
