HUD Updates Screen%20Shot%202012-06-19%20at%206.28.20%20PM

We've released a new version of the HUD (the info in the top-left corner) as part of our overall cleaning up of Era's interfaces. This is still just a prototype so we're open for suggestions ("undo it" is not a suggestion; let us know how we can improve it instead).

There are a couple kinks that will be ironed out in the next day or two (things like money, total ammo will be added to the inventory, for example; those don't need to always be visible).

Things like ammo and armor only show as necessary; try equipping and unequipping a gun to see what happens Smile.

Note that not all features will work on v5 clients; if you haven't already, we recommend upgrading to v6.

This will be fixed soon, probably added to the inventory.

This is available in the inventory and isn't needed on the main HUD.

You should make it so you're able to move or place it in other positions on your screen.

Is there an option to select the original HUD?

I can't find a way to make this one hot-pink... Sad

You can now enable/disable showing money and latency in your HUD. Click the "gear" icon to open your options.

What about an option for melee %?

Sexy update by the way.

When you removed the opacity from the old HUD it also removed the option from making inventory transparent. Sad
Could you add an option to the new HUD for the inventory?

Also lets get a color scale like with nicknames. Very Happy

The cross for health should be fatter. It looks like a plus sign, rather than a hospital cross.

Also, how about a slider to change the scale of it? It's kinda big.

And I kinda wish there was some sort of visual representation of the amount of health you have left, besides just a number.

It would be awesome if I could drag it around the screen and position where I like it also.


And speaking of recent HUD changes, how about getting opening PMs via clicking on bubbles on the map working again?

It's not an issue of taking up space. It just looks bulky.

I don't know when you're playing on a 26" monitor max resolution how big is it?!?

There is also no way to tell if you're in a PK zone or not by looking at the HUD.

I had updated that a while ago, it displays a red dash through the +, also I updated the HP to give a flash of red or green if you're hurt and healing. Enjoy!

Yeah, I posted that 2 weeks ago.

The HUD doesn't tell you if you're bleeding either.

(I blame the lack of a health bar.)

There's an easy way to tell if you're bleeding: look at your player and see if he's leaking blood. Not everything needs to be shown in the top-left of the screen.
