• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

Remember reading a post sometime ago about how to get rid of those annoying “outside view and so on” red letters on upper right corner. Have the one’s about brakes etc, but lost this one.<o:p></o:p>
Checked all posts and was not able to find it.<o:p></o:p>
Help someone?<o:p></o:p>

HideInfoText=1 will disable all red text except "main exit opening/closing" message (at least on my FSX).
This text appears on top of the screen when I open/close the canopy of every aircraft I use. (red text on green strip)...
It is always an issue when I make my videos.......:isadizzy:
 
I'd sure like to find a "cure" for the exit closing message!

Hi
You can do it the same way we did it in fs9 :)
The text is in the language.dll in the fsx main folder
as its a dll BACK IT UP FIRST :) if it all go's pair shaped just copy the backup back to the main fsx folder.....
you need to open the dll in a resources editor
I use this one it works fine under XP 32bit not sure about other OS as its an old app

open the language.dll in the above program for the English Accel ver the exit text in the "string table folder" "section number 2404" but you can use find if its not there
be careful as there are a lot of strings that use the word exit ;)
when you find the strings they will be in "" delete all the text inside the "" but leave the "" :) then click on compile script then file save.
As its a dll you cant modify and upload it due to copyright..If the above scares you or to daunting then you might find a edited ver floating around the net I know the fs9 one ended up on most of the larger flightsim sites also make sure the language.dll is for your current ver as it sure to have changed from fsx to fsxA
I take no responsibility if your system catch's fire or stops working :)
or if you get a nasty email from msoft :D ...Ive been running a self moded one for mths btw no issues ere ;)

Hmm, maybe an odd question in this thread, but here it is: does anyone know of a way to increase the font size of the info text?

Thanks for the Resource hacker link. Five minutes later, VOILA!
Works like a charm, plus a couple of the other messages now gone! And after all these years!
Works in Win7_64.
Cheers
