Hello!

First of all: Thank you for the incredible work you´ve done in the past 20 years!!

Now for my question: I have installed the Megapatch and the 1.1 Upgrade. Everything is working properly.

I prefer flying without visible cockpit pressing the "." key at the beginning of a mission.

This is okay with the transports in den first battle, everything is like it was in the vanilla game. The necessary HUD-elements are still there.

But in the first mission for the rebels I have to fly the Y-Wing. And there the HUD is empty when deactiviating the cockpit.

Is there a way to change it? Can I reinstall the bulk cockpits in order to get back the earlier view??

Press D and the old hud will be there when used with the . key

Also, you can go into Babu Frik (available via the launcher menu) and go the following route:
Select: Customize the Special Effects
in the next options select again: Customize the Special Effects
Scroll down to: HUD options (toggle ingame pressing D
and select: HUD visible on startup

This way it will be automatically on for the crafts when you launch a mission.
