Radar Overrides

paper edited this page Aug 19, 2026 · 1 revision

HlaeObsTools optionally loads user radar overrides from:

%LocalAppData%\HlaeObsTools\radars\radars.json

Reusing an existing radar

Use imageMapName to make a custom map use the style images of another map:

{
  "de_dust2_2v2": {
    "imageMapName": "de_dust2",
    "pos_x": -2476,
    "pos_y": 3239,
    "scale": 4.4
  }
}

The selected radar style is still applied.

Using a custom image

Set radarImageUrl to load an image before style lookup. Relative paths are resolved from %LocalAppData%\HlaeObsTools\radars.

{
  "de_custom": {
    "radarImageUrl": "custom/de_custom.png",
    "pos_x": -2000,
    "pos_y": 3000,
    "scale": 5.0
  }
}

For an absolute path, use forward slashes or escape backslashes in JSON.

verticalsections, ScaleAltitudeMin, ScaleAltitudeMax, and the other regular radars.json properties may also be overridden. Defining verticalsections replaces that map's bundled level definitions. You can see available properties and how they are used in the repo at HlaeObsTools\Assets\hud\radars.json.
