Dirty Bomb HUD Mockup

[en2ie]

In the bottom left we have the chat box and class specific objectives. My goal in doing these objectives is kind of MMO-esque where it shows you what needs to be done and what classes are needed for it (as indicated by the icons). Also shown is how many are currently playing that class and if none, then the number is shown in red.

I like this, it would be awesome to have something similar on the respawn hud (the one when your waiting for a revive or dead) - rather than it being permanent and adding additional clutter.

We share the same dream :eek:

This is really cool. A question to the devs here: UE3 or at least UT3 supports HUD opacity and colour customization, any chance we can get that too?

Even the first UT had this

can we have a menu like this too?

@NeoRussia, I now think they make the hud using Scaleform.

I thought DB might eventually be using a custom coded HTML5 “version” of Scaleform for HUD thingies.

[Tankey]

I vouch for everything mentioned in this topic. Those features will increase DB so much! This makes the customization so much easier even for the new ones among us. I really really hope they’re going to include it in DB.

I think something like this in the launcher would be awesome (3 hours work ^^)

• Right click on a HUD element for alignment and distance settings (You can’t edit those yet)
• Drag elements to position them
• Enable the “Snap to grid” option to make the elements snap after dragging them
• The yellow lines represent the alignments
• The “Generate config” and “Upload config” are there in case SplashDamage isn’t going to create a HUD editor:wink:, so they don’t work (YET!).

I like it. Put it in the game

Weapon section has too much redundant info.

I know I’m being patronising when I post this image, but really:

Hmm lets take a look how you can tweak your HUD in ET, thanks to some mods.

You can do this already for some years. I would love to see it in DB as well, but I wish we can have mods again in DB. Man so many cool things were added. We will miss them in DB if we don’t get mod tools

Mods / Custom content added so many cool things to ET, that for me personally DB is almost in every aspect a big step backwards from W:ET at this moment. And I would love to see DB being better than W:ET.

Just from a visual comparison with most games I’ve played this HUD was really quite clean. Even if I didn’t play it I would still agree.

Since we’re on HUD’s, I’d like the option to remove the weapon model when aiming in (or in total if that floats you boat)

DB’s HUD suffers from Brink artefacts and that HUD was made for consoles.

We simply forgot how small and subtle the elements can be and still be vivid on a pc monitor.

Roger that. The indications on Image’s mockup are still totally legible with the pic scaled down to 70%. Just that would reduce the clutter a lot without removing any info.

This. Please.

I think the obj List and status can be combined into one, I don’t think you need both. But other than that it looks great, Also Mustangs idea for the movable UI is great. +1 to OP and mustang.
