Hi everyone! I have installed the most recent versions of the XWAU, and I love most of it.

However, I have noticed that for missions where I am in an A-Wing or a B-Wing, the two windows on the left and right that show radio messages and the mission goals do not appear, regardless of what buttons I hit. I can only see them in those missions by switching to the external view of the starfighter, which is less than ideal.

How can I get those windows to show up in A-Wing and B-Wing cockpits? Thanks!

I don't know a proper solution to this, but you can press Scroll-Lock and then use your mouse to look down...
Alternatively: tap Numpad-2 to look down slightly.
Alternatively^2: press D to show the UI, any time you want to see the objectives UI etc. and then press D again to hide it.

Like Calmputer said, you can press D to de-activate the Dynamic Cockpit and get the regular HUD back. You can also Press Shift+Arrow Keys to adjust your POV to make those displays visible.
