Distance to nav marker text color

Post by Cargo »

Is there a way to change the color of the distance to nav marker readout? It can be really hard to see the yellow when placed on one of the new and gorgeous planets.

YES. You Can Find the Files in the "CUSTOM KIT" I Believe The File Name for the "NAV POINT" is "waypointn". You Can Then CHANGE IT TO ANY COLOR YOU LIKE My Friend. Then Just Place it in your "hud" Folder along with a "targetshadow3" File of your NEW "waypointn" file.

Yeah the color for the numbers and the 'K' or 'S' indication is hard coded in the game. The only thing you can change about the markers are the depictions for the markers themselves (which in your case is that yellow line and the word 'NAV').

You can, however, include a shadow behind the text to make it easier to see in front of bright backgrounds.
