HUD de-clutter

[Flanker35M]

S!

First the disclaimer. This is NOT a mod but a change anyone can do with NotePad. I strongly advice you to BACKUP the ORIGINAL file before proceeding!

So, you tired of seeing the power settings, diaper change and whatever cluttering the right side of your screen? No worries fellow IL-2 pilots, the remedy is closer than you might realise and VERY easy to do as well! Let me show you..

First navigate to the IL-2 folder and open FILES folder. Inside you should see a folder named i18n. Open it and a lot of files named xxxx.properties pop up there. Find the one named hud_log_ru.properties and open it with NotePad for example. Remember the backup first!

Now on the LEFT column are the game generated events/messages and on the RIGHT column what is displayed on your screen. Simply DELETE the text from RIGHT column you do not want to be shown. Do this to all those that you want edited and then save. Start the game and a lot less HUD messages for your convenience.

I hope you liked this small tidbit. And again, this is NOT a mod.
