He Thorsten,
The HUD is an interesting idea -- I was able to quickly build a custom hud
config and write my words individually to a property name for display.
With the HUD I can specify a font and a size, but if I scale up the size,
the font get's really pixelated.
The hud "threw" an error when I tried to specify a liberation ttf font.
Are the ttf fonts only available as 3d objects? Will they work in 2d
panels? If they are 3d only, what would it take to create a simple object
that I could place in the scene as part of the aircraft model (maybe out
front somewhere in the main view???) to display text?
Thanks,
Curt.
