UDM Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Ok poll time Since I've lost all the files on my previous HUD, I'll just redo a new one. Which would you prefer? Something with few pictures, very minimal but simple and easy to read? Or something nice, very flashy, but can be obstructive sometimes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark2000 Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 hmmm.. I dunno. I guess something simple would be nice for a change. I'm fine as long as I see all the meters clearly afterall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UDM Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 Ok Razorace gave me a good idea: the mishap meter could be represented by the size of the crosshair. If crosshair expands, it means mishap goes up. I think this is a great idea, what say you guys? Also, I need the consensus as to what HUD you guys think is best. Most people want sleek and sexy. Those who chose that, what kind of sleek do you want? Do you want a something simple like Far Cry's or Quake 3 Arena's? Or do you want something like JO's? Or something else? If you want something really minimal, the upside is that it's non obstructive and very simple to read; downside is that it's more functional than flashy. If you want something like JO's, game pace may cramp up numbers and bars and make them harder to read; but the positive side is that it looks nice Your thoughts please!

Maxstate Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 I only really concentrate on bars more than numbers anyway, so JO for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark2000 Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 the mishap meter could be represented by the size of the crosshair. If crosshair expands, it means mishap goes up. I think this is a great idea, what say you guys? sounds like a good idea especially for the gunners but this could also make it difficult to measure how close you are to 100% mishap because you're not looking at a meter.

razorace Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Well, there's no reason why we couldn't have the expanding crosshair and a meter for mishap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That one should become the HUD with some minor adjustments to fit a mishap and DP bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UDM Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 K if there are no more objections, I'll get to work on that one. Would be a piece of cake for me to do (for me only, dunno how much coding will be involved) since I'm only working on the frame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razorace Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 If that's what people really want, we could just have Ensiform port in his custom huds code, which was used for that shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UDM Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 razorace: Hmm it's a bit too simplistic, I've got something in mind, I'll do a concept and then show it to you guys first, then let me know if you all want mine or ensi's maxstate: whai not?
