WegZoomHUD v1.1

by WegBert

Introduction

WegZoomHUD provides a little HUD in the lower right hand corner of your screen that shows the central portion of your screen (where your reticle is pointing) zoomed in by an arbitrary amount. If you were a Tribes 1 player, WegZoomHud is similar to Zear's Snipe Hud.

Installation

  1. To install WegZoomHud, just extract WegZoomHud.cs to your Tribes2\GameData\base\scripts.
  2. Customize the options (described below) in the WegZoomHud.cs file.
  3. Run Tribes 2.
  4. Click on Launch -> Settings -> Controls and bind the "Toggle Zoom Hud" key to whatever you'd like
  5. Enjoy.

Options

Note on Floating Point numbers: In Tribes 2, floating point numbers between -1 and 1 must have a 0 (zero) before the decimal point. For example, .3 is incorrect, but 0.3 is correct.
$WegZoomHud::FramePercentage = Floating Point (Default: 0.25)
The product of this number and the width/height of the screen generate the width/height of the zoom hud. Must be between 0 and 1.
$WegZoomHud::ZoomSens = Floating Point (Default: 0)
The mouse sensitivity to use when the HUD is visible. If 0, the sensitivity will not be changed.
$WegZoomHud::UseWegZoom = "true" | "false" (Default: "true")
If "true" and my WegZoom.cs script is installed, the mouse wheel will work just like it does when zoomed in with WegZoom.
$WegZoomHud::KeyToggle = "true" | "false" (Default: "true")
If "true", pressing the zoom hud key once will display the hud and pressing it a second time will hide the hud. If "false", holding the key will display the hud and releasing it will hide the hud.
