Ship wireframe not in the correct position with the Advanced Widescreen 16:9 HUD - FLHDE/freelancer-hd-edition GitHub Wiki
NOTE: This issue has already been fixed since an installer update for version 0.4.1 was released.
This issue is often caused by playing Freelancer: HD Edition with the default settings in any aspect ratio other than 16:9. If you want to completely remove the Advanced Widescreen additions altogether, you can simply disable the "Advanced Widescreen HUD for 16:9 resolutions" in the mod options when installing the mod. You'll still get support for the regular Widescreen patch and other aspect ratios. However, it's pretty simple to get the wireframe to be in the correct position if your misalignment is similar to the one from the screenshot.
