The Nova Lux (New Light) HUD is one of the newest in spaceship cockpits, with all functions and features gathered in a slick futuristic design. It changes color based on conditions (Deepspace/Mass-Locked/Alert).
It does, however, not brew coffee.
MFD placement
The Nova Lux comes in four different flavours: for green alert, yellow alert, red alert, and lastly, as one of the more modern HUDs, the Nova Lux has a special version which shows when docked. There is also a small HUD version for smaller ships such as the Adder.
In red alert the Reticle, Shield and Energy indicators are grouped around the crosshairs.
The Nova Lux manages 6 MFDs, which are placed as shown above.
It also works with widescreen monitors. And is now compatible with HUD Selector

- BB Thread (2015)
- Original BB Thread showing development of HUD 5th post and onwards (2015)
- Vincentz also designed the 3D font.
- He started writing an Economics OXP New Deal - with some super icons, but sadly did not finish before Real Life crept up on him and he got nobbled by The Notorious Knucklebones of Negation.
- And there are also the Nova Ships (fighter, gunship, liner & shuttle) and a soundset (see Vincentz for details).
