I don't know if Ady has done anything about the crappy Vader hologram
Heres my take:

Is there the possibility of just replacing the shot with Vader on a viewscreen? When you think about it, it is rather silly to have a smurf-sized Vader (or anyone) on what looks like a cigarette plug-in hologram add-on...
not to mention, is that holo (8-track) deck located near the right arm of the left AT-AT driver (as in, shouldn't there be a joystick in that area)? The area on the right side looks like the center of the console (the white bar above and behind Vader is the same as the glowing blue bar at the driver's shoulder level below):
Now I know someone is going to say that the mini-holodeck could be located in the center, between the joysticks (by the green dot).... the problem is that you should see the other joystick on the left side on the 1st image above, not to mention Veers looks off to his left (or right side of the screen), as opposed to straight below him, which would also be underneath his periscope.
Not to also mention, but wouldn't this give Vader a skyscraper sized shot of Veers "below the belt" region?
Imagine someone coming in on Vader's conversation on that one...
(maybe you could take the scene in JEDI where Vader is holding his arm up to defend himself from Luke's attack and make a tiny hologram version to account for his "view" of Veers).
