2014 HUD MPH to KPH? (Solved)

I'm having some issues with the 2014 HUD showing a reading in MPH rather than KPH. As you can see, the moving bar around the circumference of the circle shows KPH (~120) but the text shows only "70".



The version was the one released by Chris Jungwirth and I have also tried a few variations of this I found for 2015 and in other mods with the same issue.

I had the same problem with 2012 HUD... let´s see if that´s your case:

Check that the option "use metrics units" is checked, go to: Main Menu --> Workshop --> Utilities --> Menu Setup --> use metrics units :



Here´s the difference with CHECKED and UNCHECKED, even if in gpxpatch you choose the kph version:

Fantastic thanks! Not sure how I never knew that was there over the years! I guess other HUDs must have not used that setting.

That, and use the improved Bathurst track!

Haha, in my opinion my version is still better but of course I am biased Either way, I am more interested in having a more up-to-date graphical look as the original mid 2000s textures from Codemasters aren't very nice. Since I spent tens of hours updating mine with new mapping/objects/textures etc ours are probably not compatible which is a shame as it would be nice to combine both updates as it looks like you did a good job

Aww, I somehow missed that graphical update - I should've worked on your version then, not the original one!

Sorry.

And I kinda know that bias feel, so no worries.
