There'll be few alternative huds, including the one from nc1 afaik, in the near future so relax mate.

lol yeah :P, same here. it looks better than NC1, more stylish... yes it's a bit bigger but I use F* keys so everything goes as fast as in NC1.

I can generally use it okay - however - I would prefer the NC1 - just with the bars for XP for NC2 and the player health soullight tab from NC2 also :)

We will implant a different version for the in-game R.P.O.S. It will be more simplistic and basically just replace the most important graphics. The point is, that we where busy implanting it when we started the theme weeks. Now the droners are totally in the focus. So they will get an HUD enhancement first :p . But be sure we will finalize and activate the alternative R.P.O.S. asap and than you will be able to choose a version in the options menu. :)

...you sure you have tried all other available huds? /set gfx_hudcolor 0-9 is the command.

Will we be able to change the opacity of the hud? Being able to make the chat window opaque would be lovely!

Also there is alot of "fluf" around the outside of the windows that clutter up your screen and make it harder to do things. The edges of the windows are not as well defined so switching between windows is a drag.

So all in all, good news that we can choose a simpler HUD.

All you need to do is play in 800*600. I have to, because 1024*768 makes the font too small to be read confortably on my 17" monitor. :(
I absolutely hate the new RPOS because its bloated, ugly and lacks functionality...
And, *cough*, who said its stylish? It's kitsch...
They would do best by just putting the old RPOS as an option, i bet it would take 1 hour to do that... But ill take any replacement tbh :)

See, that's EXACTLY my point ;)
Admittedly, lately KK have done more in terms of keeping promises / informing us of developments than during entire NC1 time.
I'm just having a Disillusionment Day(tm) , is all ;)

To make it easier on you guys, just have the option to switch between the NC1 and NC2 RPOS.

Also, an assortment of reticles to choose from would be cool, too. :)

I do fully agree with your points :) KK is being DRIVEN now and not coasting along i hope it keeps up :).

---------------------------
Also, i know the modification of game files is not aloud but perhaps once the game is more on the rails than off have an RPOS design competition where you could give the community a screenshot from the game to lay a Photoshop created RPOS on as in just designing and then chosing a winner, refining and implementing :)

Sounds like the plan, is there any hud's out there that are allowed by kk?

Holgar let people submit potential huds then KK can concentrate on other stuff, theres been some great huds made in the past just look at the one that was with NeolauncherPro.

Size is the problem, not color.

yeah.. but MJS was probably more pimp.

lol omnituens, would you rather he be visually appealing or good at his job....

i know which option im voting for.

good work so far kk, the feedback has been wonderful. Although i cant see what the problem is with the hud. The only minor glitch i have is moving the windows around and that funny arm bug that some monks get.
