    11 The minimum resolution is 800x600 (more for certain HUDs, see [wiki:Features#HUDs Features] for a list). Use on 640x480 is '''not''' supported and will result in various UI elements overlapping each other.

Then help testing the latest build: <a href="http://cortui.rtsquad.org/chrome/site/download/CortUI-1.80-dev-r155.exe">CortUI-1.80-dev-r155.exe</a>. Please comment on <a href="http://cortui.rtsquad.org/report/3">existing tickets</a>, or open a new one if I introduced a new problem during development&mdash;and don't forget to mention the version you were testing ('dev-r155' in this case)!

    3622Note for everyone hosting Allegiance download collections: please just link to this page or the [http://cortui.rtsquad.org/ CortUI site]
    3723itself. I have enough bandwidth and the download is fairly small. If you re-host it, that usually means that I have to deal with old versions floating around--at least subscribe to the [http://cortui.rtsquad.org/timeline?ticket=on&ticket_details=on&changeset=on&milestone=on&wiki=on&max=50&daysback=90&format=rss Timeline RSS feed] if you feel like you really have to.

    39 == Installation ==
    40 
    41 To improve the CortUI experience, the installation process has been automated as much as possible. CortUI comes packaged as an installer, a single executable that looks and feels a lot like the one you have used to install Allegiance.
    42 
    43 It is generally recommended to back up your Allegiance directory before installing CortUI, although no problems have been reported for years.
    44 
    45 After telling you what it is going to do, you are presented with a page offering you various options for customization. These options are explained on the page InstallationOptions and it is recommended to change them to your preferences. You can skip that and use the defaults, but this is the only place where you can easily select the HUD you want to use!
    46 
    47 [[Image(htdocs:/Installer.png, link=)]]
    48 
    49 On the following page, the installer will ask you for the path to the `artwork` directory of your Allegiance installation. It will try to automatically detect this (based on the information Allegiance writes into the registry, which is also what the Allegiance client should use), so you normally don't have to change this.
    50 The one exception is if you have multiple installations on your disk (for example because you're also doing development on the client) and want to install to one specific `artwork` directory.
    51 
    52 When that has completed, you can run Allegiance through ASGS as you did before. You can switch between the normal HUD and the software HUD you chose during installation using the ESC menu.
    53 
    5425== Changing HUDs ==
    5526
    56 If you want to switch to another HUD, the easiest way is to run the installer again and select different InstallationOptions.
    57 
    58 In case you feel comfortable with editing configuration files on your harddisk, you can also switch manually. This is covered on the InstallationOptions page as well.
     27Since version 2.0, to switch HUDs, launch the Allegiance client and use the 'Graphics' -> 'Style' menu (or Esc, O, H).
