Simplified Hud

[AshuraDX]

I messed around with the HUD today and made this:

 

 

Faithful to the old base JKA HUD, but in a higher resolution and reduced to basic shapes and colors - opinions?

[swegmaster]

holy crap dude, that looks epic, although you could probably make some of the grey more transparent like the original base hud

[afi]

Looks great

[AshuraDX]

@ the grey parts I have here are opaque in the games hud aswell

 

 

EDIT:

 

I hope to get the bars to gradually fade with some shader work, so ideally it'll look something like this when you took damage:

 

if I can't get it to do that I'll adjust the textures some more

[swegmaster]

wait crap for some reason i thought the grey corner was transparent , but could you add a little glow to the blue circle in the corner?

[AshuraDX]

@

 

I was toying with the idea to make that circle the saberstyle indicator

[Seven]

I don't know if this is possible or not, but it'd be cool if the color of the grey part could change for specific playermodels. For example, Poe = Orange and Black, Rey = Tan, Vader = Black and Grey etc.

[Seven]

It's not perfect, but heres an example of what Poe's could looks like

 

 

 

 

[AshuraDX]

interesting idea, maybe soemthing that could be implemented in JKE

 

I'll release my PSD file for this aswell so ayone could go ahead and make changes like this

I'm personally not a fan of the gradually fading bars, I like to know exactly how much HP I have by quickly glancing at the health bar.

turned out I can not get that to work with what JKA offers me, so they'll be more like the base JKA bars. I will keep the written numbers aswell

Or you could have optional numbers or no numbers?

[AshuraDX]

scaled it to look best with widescreen resolutions for now

still have to adjust the 4:3 version

[ensiform]

If the HUD code allowed full parsing of menu files, you could have a cvar restriction for specific colored variants but they don't work that way in jk2 or academy.

[Onysfx]

Wow, that HUD looks significantly better than the old one either way. Hope this is put in Jedi Knight: Enhanced.

Probably best to use native 4:3 (640x480 virtual) because mods like JA++, jaMME already have aspect-correction for all HUD elemnts (HUD, crosshair, text, etc) and it would warp.

Yeah, I'll include that aswell no, worries

@@Circa, @@eezstreet, @@redsaurus should I redo the menu screen in a similiar style for JK:E? or are you not interested in having this for JK:E?

[Circa]

Yes pls

Holy ... Bananas

Can you do something similar for the vehicle hud?

Done allready, will get some screens of that later

[Archangel35757]

it should animate open/close (like a Japanese fan) when you click on it. The 12 o'clock hand should rotate down to the three o clock hand.

[AshuraDX]

@ there's the current vehicle hud, still have to recreate the map/radar texture

 

@@Archangel35757 needs code work, probably not gonna happen

[swegmaster]

progress on the hud? curious
