    Hello,

    In Dev Mode, I've repositioned the tyre temperature page of the black box but I don't know how to transfer the changes into Single Player. I assumed it would be automatic but, obviously not.

    So, how is this done? I've wanted to move it about for ages.

    Any help appreciated.

    Someone must be able to shed some light on this...

    Any input would be nice, even guesses.

    Not sure what you mean, but if you have changed something of the HUD in DevMode and want to have it in the game, you have to create an own HUD rfcmp and install it in the game.

    Yeah I've changed something in Dev Mode and want the changes in-game.

    How would one create an rfcmp for the HUD?

    I have basic knowledge on creating rfcmp files.

    PS. sorry, only just seen your reply for this. I should stay logged in :)

    I'm not sure... but i guess you need some Advice for building the Hud Component now?

    I guess you've changed an existing HUD.
    I would suggest to:

    - create a new Folder, call it "my hud" or whatever you like
    - extract all the Content of the MAS File from the HUD that you have used, into this new folder
    - Copy the ini File that you have edited and paste it into the new Folder
    - You can also use a tga File as Icon, that shows up in the Menu, copy->paste it into the folder, also
    - edit/repaint the Icon to your needs, if you want
    - now rename the ini and Icon-tga Files in e.g MovedTireTemp.ini and MovedTireTemp.tga
    - open the ini file, scroll to the end and change the Line:

    MAS_FILE = XXX.mas
    into
    MAS_FILE = MovedTireTemp.mas

    Create a Mas File that contains all Files of the folder and call it "MovedTireTemp.mas"

    Now you can go the "normal" way to create a Component.
    You just have to select "HUD" in the "Type:"-Dropdown of the Component-Builder

    I hope i didn't forget something...
