Help! My HUD is in kph and BAR

Post by Pete92 »

Hello,

Can anyone tell me how I can change the HUD back to MPH and PSI. I seem to have changed it but don't know how.

Cheers

Pete

The units are set by the route, you can't set them manually. If you're in the UK you'll get miles and PSI and if you're on the continent you'll get km and Bar.

The route is the Shethorpe and the Whitley Branch and the track rule is the one for the original port road from steam the strange thing is that up till yesterday it was fine but now its changed and I can't see any reason for it and like I said the track rule still says it should be displaying MPH and PSI so its not like its changed the track rule itself so I am at a loss as to what it could be

Hi, just downloaded the shethorpe route to look at and it is using the woodhead route template, not Port Road.

According to the route author he used the port road track rule and the tracks bin itself points to it as far as I can see but I could be mistaken

Hi, did you know that the Track rules blueprint_PortRoad.bin has recently been changed/ removed and is now called Track rules blueprint_PortRoad_orig.bin? So tracks.bin is possibly referencing a non existant file.

Yes I am aware of that but there is a file with the old name still in the folder that seems identical to the PortRoad_orig.bin so I cannot see anyway for that to be causing the problem as I would have thought that if the game was trying to read a non existent file it would just crash but to further complicate matters it seems that the problem is only with the F5 hud not the f4 or f3 huds
