Ok I'm still trying to figure out why I seem to be the only one not able to get this to work, maybe if I describe it you can help me..I'll be brief as I can:

 

I DL the file to my desktop, then use win.rar to extract the data folder to C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\fallout new vegas

 

I then go to documents>my games> FalloutNV> falloutPrefs, I find the uHUDcolor..which is about halfway down the list, I change the number,(read only is UNchecked), I hit save and close it

 

I start steam, select my game and load my saved game..and nothing has changed..it's still the default hud.

 

 

I go back to C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\fallout new vegas..I click on the fallout new vegas folder and the folder under 'Data' in the list is 'HUD amber' and below that is a folder named 'Redist'

 

I go back to the falloutprefs file and it has reverted to the original number.

 

I'm not a mod ninja..but the directions were pretty straight forward and easy to follow, I even created a folder inside of the \common\fallout new vegas\Data folder with C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\fallout new vegas\Data\ArchiveInvalidation.txt with textures/Interface/interfaceshared0.dds as txt document in it. As suggested.

 

ideas?
