FAQ

"Do I need to bind Flashlight, IR, NVG toggle separately?"

No! Use the Radial Menu. All toggles are in there.

"What about NVG on/off?"

That's in the Radial Menu too under your NVG device.

"The menu shows multiple devices?"

Yes! If you have a helmet light AND a weapon light, both appear as separate categories in the radial menu.

"I can't see anything in the radial menu?"

Make sure you have SHS-compatible equipment equipped (helmet with SHS light component, or weapon with SHS attachment).

"What's the difference between IR Cover options?"

• Light IR Cover = For the IR illuminator (flood light)
• Strobe IR Cover = For the IR strobe (flashing beacon)

Removing the cover makes that light visible WITHOUT needing night vision goggles.

TL;DR - The Simple Setup

1. Bind ONE key: SHSRadialMenu to D-Pad Up
2. Open radial menu when you have SHS equipment
3. Point and click to toggle whatever you need
4. Done! 🎉

Still Having Issues?

• Make sure the mod is loaded (check mod list)
• Verify your equipment has SHS components (not all items are compatible)
• Try rebinding if the key conflicts with another action
• The radial menu only appears when you have SHS-compatible gear equipped
