WainingWabbits Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 The actual in game HUD seems a little bit outdated, i think it should get an overhaul. For starters i think it's time we get a mini map, preferably in the top right side of the screen ( where the day clock is currently located ) Also, the health / hunger / sanity HUD should be redone and repositioned in a place where it's easier for the user to check on them. Here is a poor concept, sorry for my photoshop skills Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/106892-its-time-to-update-the-hud/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a poor concept, sorry for my photoshop skills why would you want all of your stats to be all over the screen? That makes it so you have to look all of the place to look at multiple things, which is just worse. I do think a official mini map would be nice though.

WainingWabbits Posted May 30, 2019 Author Share Posted May 30, 2019 I didn't say i want all of my stats to be all over the screen, i want all my stats to be in a more visible position, having them above the inventory would be better for the eye, as i said, excuse my photoshop skills, here is a better example of how the player stats could look above the inventory https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=300918311 Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/106892-its-time-to-update-the-hud/#findComment-1202390 Share on other sites More sharing options...
inferjus4 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Not wanna be rude, but this HUD concept as those mod HUDs are horrible. They do not fit DS style at all and they look more like for RPG game. The only HUD update I would accept would be the colors and borders update, nothing else.

WainingWabbits Posted May 30, 2019 Author Share Posted May 30, 2019 You are missing the point of the concept i gave, it is not an example of how the HUD art should be drawn, but an example of how it could be repositioned Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/106892-its-time-to-update-the-hud/#findComment-1202433 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't wanna be rude, but I'm starting to feel like i'm talking to a brick wall here, it's not about the how the HUD should look like, but how the HUD could be repositioned better and made more compact..

natanstarke Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Minimap is MUST, no reason to not have it, is so better playing with mini map without constantly having to hit tab, especially in shipwrecked where i cant use minimap at all or the game becomes a crawl even day 1.

No, minimap is not needed. It is training wheel.

Being able to pause the game and look at the map directly seems a lot better IMO.

Really thats all I use it for besides sometimes it just being quicker.

natanstarke Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Well it removes a thousand clicks in the tab key for me. I can feel a tremendous difference even in efficiency doing stuff in together using minimap comparing to vanilla i even feel less tired if have a minimap.

Guest Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Minimap is also very intensive on systems from what I've read on the mod for it, so if an official minimap likewise meant a cost of any performence at all its an absolute "no" for me.
