Hi, I have a simple request for someone who has had practice in modding mercenary.

If I could do it I would. But paint and me don't mix well. Literally.

Anyway my request is this. It concerns the HUB and the directional wheel that spins at the top.

I have a really hard time figuring out where 103 232 etc is. Is there anyway that one of you guys/women could make it numerically more precise?

In other words think of a Canadian tape measure in inches it is absolutely horrible then think of a nice European metric band.

That or the closest thing is what I am looking for.

I appreciate your time and thank you for reading this post. Any help on this matter would greatly be appreciated.

I use a compass with ten-degree increments. Not fifteen. But I have no place to upload it. Sorry.

Edit:
All you really need to do is create a .\\hud folder, then put Accountant's compass.png in there.

Thank you. I was aware of the hud folder. I used a mod from here but didn't need an entire cockpit. should have looked at the individual pics I guess. Thank you for your help.

Actually its the compass that I need refined. I'll check others.

Dormin, try out the attached file. Just put it in your HUD folder. This is the file Eclipse was talking about. I changed the compass to resemble an airplane's compass by marking every 15 degrees and labeling every 30 degrees.

If you want something finer let me know and I can throw something together.

Sorry I took a while to get back to you. But yes the 5 increment one is exactly what I needed. Thank you so much. I really appreciate this.

Thank you very much for the 5 degree compass was exactly what I was looking for, and going to try your invisible hud also!

Cheers mate, that's brill. I've been hacked off with the default compass for years.
