no distances/speed displayed in cockpit / loss of ships - William Frederick Cody - 11-09-2021

Good evening lads and gents,

I cannot see any distances when undocked. Any easier ideas than a fresh install?

Sincerly yours,

William Frederick Cody

Check if fonts are installed

May need to play with hudshift

Also welcome back.

Thanks for the quick supply.
Hudshift I used years ago to drill freelancer onto 16:10 with my old display. I think next weekend i try a fresh install. I dunno about the fonts. Maybe I installed some years ago.

This usually happens when running the game in 2k or 4k. What's your resolution? I have a modified fonts file for 4k that you can just copy into your game folder. For 2k you will need to experiment with a few values in the fonts.ini file.

I use a 4k Display. 3840x2160. Thanks in advance for the fonts.
