Title: Kang's Hud (yet another hud ...)
Post by: kangounator on September 19, 2007, 10:40:20 pm
I did not liked much the stock trem 1.1 hud, that's why I made a lightweight hud where everything got some use. I used a lot of bars so that I don't have to look downside and lose my aim or anything.

Here (http://www.kangounator.org/hud/kang_hud_1.0.1.zip) is the hud (read the readme to find how to install it)

And there are some screenshots:

Well ... that's pretty all (thanks comp, wolfwing, mexel and hellrider: I used your huds to make mine)


C&C welcomed...

Kang

I like it! The only thing I don't like is the bars at the bottom. This is almost precisely the smae kind of HUD I wanted to make :D (only problem is I don't know how to make one :( ). A pic of the loading screen maybe? And maybe if you are feeling very kind because of all my lovely comments a version without bars for me? Or tell me how to change the bars back to normal? Please? And also a crosshair? please?

EDIT-- after reading noone's post: WTF?

Well ... the whole point of this hud is these bars, they are made to be seen when you look at the center of the screen (so that you can know the health you have).

If you want I can upload one without bars but it'll be a kind of useless hud :P

For the loading screen, I would like to post a screenshot too but I did not manage to make one.

I meant replace the bars with the circles again. And maybe a crosshair? So what does the loading screen look like then? Describe using words.

@CreatureofHell:
Well ... the loading screen looks a bit like superpie's one (http://img300.imageshack.us/img300/337/shot0006kj4.jpg).
There were no circle for health and there cannot be one. About the stamina circle, it's what I call a waste of space as having the circle imply having the whole blue thing. (cannot use my own medias if I want the hud to be pure).
(It seems you did not tested it ingame, there is a crosshair but I never play with it on.)

@DoorKnob left spikes are for wallwalk, right ones for booster, in alien both bars are health, since it's the only way to have a "symetrical" hud (and that life is pretty important, isn't it ? :D )

just tested it and it is quite nice. And about the circle for health i meant just the numbers in the circle like the regular HUD.

EDIT -- The wording that says what stage you are above the left hand bar must either be englarged or gotten rid of. You can't read it.

This is nice, I see very few problems with it from the shots (I especially think the symmetrical alien health bars are neat). But I've just got three questions:

1. What's that big red dot on the left side of the screen?
2. Would it be bothersome to upload one with an alien crosshair?
3. What's the radar look like? Normal? I personally like fullscreen radars a lot, but it'd be nice to have one that uses colors different than that of the human crosshairs; they tend to get lost in the visual commotion very easily when you're near a bunch of teammates.

Changed some thing (enlarged the stage text, better loading screen and chompers crosshair although i don't see hte point of it)
I edited the presentation, there is now a screenshot with a radar.

CreatureofHell, are you talking of the nearly transparent blue thing located near the 2 in that pic ? (http://fr.tremulous.net/wiki/images/thumb/250px-Human_HUD.jpg)
if yes, that's the kind of thing I removed on purpose not to have useless things.

TMCHC: the red circle is the demo recording, you'll not have it.

Nice. I've downloaded it and I might give it a try if I ever get tired of Comp's hud.

its different from the minor recoloring/moving of spikes and radars.

Human hud
Add some toggle switches maybe somthing more like different color bars?
Honestly i dont see the point in having 2bars.... you coppied impulse bar thing and just added color low...
Um alignment is fine
Colors are wacky
Ok other that that this hud is pretty allright

how do i install it
Put the "ui" folder inside your base folder, start the game up, open console (with ~),then insert
/seta cg_hudfiles "ui/kang_hud.cfg

then
/vid_restart

and it should work.

Same as before, but then the code should be

/seta cg_hudFiles "ui/hud.txt"
