Custom HUD?

[mined]

Hey, I figured something out that might interest you for your HUD, Tut or both. The HUD I am working on for the Hoplite implements a reticle that changes shape, size, as well as the color when locked onto a target biped. It is very simple in terms of how it works and probably is not anything new to some...but it might add a little more content to a good HUD tut.

Let me know if you are interested.

Yea, that would be cool, cause my Tut is gonna be for not only health and shield, but reticles, and ammo meters. Most people know about the ammo and reticle, but any extra info is good

hm, is there a way to move the one icon for showing the gametype? *its the one where its the guy for slayer, flag for race, ext.*

There is a way to move any of them...in the tag, each feature has a location value. There are coordinates that vary according to where the feature is anchored on the screen. Open a hud tag and you will find it pretty quick.

Yea, ill show how ya move that stuff too. Its actually really simple, and theres a way to check where they will be onscreen without having to compile a map and test everytime.

Hey Plas, If you are still intersted, I'll send you the info to contribute to the tut Friday night.

Ok, id like that. And heres a preview of my HUD. This is still a concept, and it is made by AceOfSpades:

Looks cool! I especially like the motion sensor.

[Boo Diddly]

wow, thats a nice hud idea. it probably would be better if that was for halo 2 because of the secondary weapon and displaying both gernades

Shields, health, and armor? I've actually been discussing that idea with some of my friends and they consider I'm crazy, but if you can implement that I'd like to have your children if you don't mind.
