[GTR] Camera & Turret Overlay - Hexagon

Description
After using mods that remove all the fuzz/static from camera view, I felt that it was too plain. So I created my own with a hexagon pattern and military style. Useful for easier targeting and great for ground attack vehicles.

Recommended to use with Digi's Camera Panning

New and improved overlays here! [GTR] Camera & Turret Overlay 2

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

- The green overlay is for turrets, inspired by tanks video displays.

- The white overlay is for cameras, inspired by aircraft targeting pods.
It also greatly helps in aiming for targets or orienting your ship with an object.

Scanline Overlay

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

This is part of my HUD/GUI pack I created and want to work on, but I stopped because I will wait until Keen changes the HUD. They said it would be the next big thing they work on. It is inspired by Ace Combat and Arma 3. The main Crosshair and Horizon Line are not included in this mod.

Feel free to add feedback.

@Raio Verisia, There are some modded turrets that use their own custom overlay, but im not sure how ones that use the default one would be affected. They might just not recognize my mod and use the default.

Is it not possible to add the ui to modded turrets as well? I assumed they all pulled from the same files that would be temp-overwritten by a loaded mod's files

@Nix yes I am, I didn't consider that lol

@tanus11 do you mean you want to be able to switch between the vanilla and modded overlay image in-game? I don't know if there is a way to do that.

@Nix what i mean is in the vanilla game you have a camera and i was wondering if there was a mod were you took the vanilla camera model and just placed this overlay on it so that you have 2 cameras in the building menu. i'll take your answer as a no or am I mistaken

@tanus11 I'm not sure what you're asking. I dont know how to make models to make a new camera.

@Raio Verusia From my testing it seems like the mod still works, but it only works on the vanilla turrets and camera. Are you using modded turrets with this mod?

@Nix you wouldnt have this as a mod where you have a new camera block with this overlay because id like to use several differen styles for different situations

Ah, no worries. It's a real shame, I was really looking forward to trying this x3 At least the camera still works, nice work on that one. Maybe you'll find some motivation to fix it, but no pressure. Currently using Midspace's clean crosshair overlay, so, while it's not as nice as yours at least it's not vanilla trash.

Its been a long time since I've played SE, and I'm not sure what changes they have made or when a change broke the mods :/

I can confirm the turret overlay does not work, it only functions for cameras.
