Minimalistic Hud

[Khundian]

I made this Minimalistic HUD for myself, but sharing it with whoever wants to use it too. Keep in mind, you will have to use keyboard hotkeys for most things.



Features :

• Moved the Maneuver Bar off-screen
  
• Moved the Neural Net off-screen
  
• When minimizing your HUD, the contact and weapon list + buttons are completely moved off-screen
  
• When minimizing your HUD, the counter for batteries is moved to the left, and the counter for nanobots to the right of your energy/shield//hull gauges.
  

Known Issues :

• When docked with your HUD minimized, when you undock again.. it will show the default minimized HUD until you toggle your HUD again.
  

Always backup your files before making edits!


Installation :

1. install Freelancer + Discovery mod
   
2. go to ..\Discovery Freelancer 4.88.1\EXE
   
3. copy HudShift.ini file
   
4. go to ..\Discovery Freelancer 4.88.1\DATA\INTERFACE
   
5. paste HudShift.ini file
   
6. open HudShift.ini file in ..\Discovery Freelancer 4.88.1\DATA\INTERFACE with a text editor (I recommend notepad++)
   
7. delete all the text in the HudShift.ini file and replace it with the text on this page : http://pastebin.com/raw/eKw25UQZ
   
   
8. look for
   
   Code:

   [HUDShift]
Horizontal = auto

; The calculated values, if you'd like to do some fine tuning.
; Be sure to comment the above, otherwise you'll shift twice.
   
   
9. change to
   
   Code:

   [;HUDShift]
Horizontal = auto

; The calculated values, if you'd like to do some fine tuning.
; Be sure to comment the above, otherwise you'll shift twice.
   
   
10. look for
    
    Code:

    ; 16:9 (1280x720, 1440x810, 1600x900, 1920x1080).
[;HUDShift]
Horizontal = 0.17

; 15:9 (1280x768).
[;HUDShift]
Horizontal = 0.1275

; 16:10 (1280x800, 1440x900, 1600x1000, 1680x1050, 1920x1200).
[;HUDShift]
Horizontal = 0.102
    
    
11. look for your resolution/aspect ratio, and uncomment the [HUDShift] under your resolution. For 16:9 it should look like this
    
    Code:

    ; 16:9 (1280x720, 1440x810, 1600x900, 1920x1080).
[HUDShift]
Horizontal = 0.17

; 15:9 (1280x768).
[;HUDShift]
Horizontal = 0.1275

; 16:10 (1280x800, 1440x900, 1600x1000, 1680x1050, 1920x1200).
[;HUDShift]
Horizontal = 0.102
    
    
12. save and close the HudShift.ini file
    
13. Play with a Minimalistic HUD!
    

Uninstall :

1. Delete the HudShift.ini from ..\Discovery Freelancer 4.88.1\DATA\INTERFACE

Great idea! Thank you for this. This should be a feature of the mod itself.

Good stuff, thanks. If I may ask, are you using any other graphical modifications? If so, which ones? :p
