buggaby Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I've searched around the Nexus and found lots of photos demonstrating one mod or another, but often, the person seems to have a custom hud (displaying karma and other information). I can't seem to find an actual mod for it though. Am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is the newest version: http://www.bethsoft.com/bgsforums/index.php?showtopic=984736. Enjoy :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skotte Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Actually the latest is http://www.bethsoft.com/bgsforums/index.ph...owtopic=1063937 It can be hard to keep up with the thread # Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buggaby Posted January 31, 2010 Author Share Posted January 31, 2010 Thanks, guys. I have installed this mod and I really like the improvement. It's true, computers and consoles have different display requirements... However, all that has changed for me is the font and stuff, but with some other examples, there is different information presented on the HUD. (i.e. Example Pic, note the meter for radiation, karma, experience, time...) Is this possible to get by manipulating DUIF3Settings.xml? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skotte Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 If you have FOSE ( http://fose.silverlock.org/ ) installed, in the main menu there should be a new listing "DUI F3" though you may need to load a save game before it shows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buggaby Posted January 31, 2010 Author Share Posted January 31, 2010 OK, so I downloaded fose and successfully started the game with it. I loaded a game, played for a bit, saved a few times, exited, tried again... but I don't see a new menu item. I edited the DUIF3Settings file, and the corresponding changes made it to the game when I loaded it again. Does it matter that I downloaded fose after having "installed" the UI? Other than that, I don't know what is not working. The UI I downloaded was from the link posted above by Skotte. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alastair91 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Alpha 1.1 is the latest version. If you have FOSE installed, just load a save game, press esc button, you'll see DUI3 button on the right side. Click it then edit until your heart is content. My opinion, editing xml gives you more freedom in editing HUD (for those more experience in editing stuff), with FOSE DUI3 allows you access to quick menu to edit hud ( not all options available, for people who are new/lazy to edit xml file).

buggaby Posted January 31, 2010 Author Share Posted January 31, 2010 I have attached a screen shot of the menu I see from a saved game. As you can see, it is unchanged except for the DUI Interface head on the bottom left. Actually, I'm beginning to wonder if the mods I want are even possible with this Darnified mod. I am looking for the meters for karma, experience, time etc. to be static on. I am assuming that the new menu item just plays with the .xml file. There is no reference in that file to those meters (except for experience, but that one isn't static on, and there's no option I see to make it so) so even if I had that menu item, it doesn't appear that it would have the options I am looking for. I don't mind editing the .xml file instead of using the menu, but I just can't see the functionality I want there. Maybe I'm not reading something correct? Thanks for all the help so far :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoleMania Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 No, something must be wrong, Darn's UI definately does include all the meters. Did you download mannually or with the FOMM package manager? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alastair91 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Darn's UI is what you're looking for, the karma, xp statics, etc... Something is definitely wrong. Are you using 1.1alpha, you can check by scrolling mouse to bottom left screen, point at the vault dude's head. I know in the previous versions you don't get the edit menu when you pause game. Try reinstalling, go for the FOMM package manager instead of the manual one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
