HUD Adjustments

Zyos

Howdy guys,

I’m very rusty in the ways of modding, infact I can’t remember what sits in the realm of possibility anymore.

I wish to accomplish 2 edits to the HUD.

One, move the navigation bar over to the left side (so move that particular element) and hopefully, scale it down and make it smaller (so it’s roughly the same size as the menu to the top right.

Is this currently possible?

Take a look in adoxa’s Hud Shift plugin. http://adoxa.altervista.org/freelancer/plugins.html#hudshift

Thank you for that, I am currently using that plugin, but I want to move just that one element of the HUD.

And scale it down in size.

If HUDShift doesn’t do what you want, I am not aware of any other way around it. Make sure you’ve tried all of the HUDShift values though, there’s loads.

Scaling is not possible as far as I know.

I shall do some investigations into it. See if I can work anything out. In the middle of building my new rig right now.

I didn’t include scale (or Z axis) with HUD Shift, so (at least for now) you’ll have to patch these directly in [c]Freelancer.exe[/c].

0D7BCA, -0.5f -> -0.75f, frame
0D8BB7, 0.5f -> 0.25f, icons
0D8CF7, -1f -> -1.5f, subicons frame
0D8D5B, 0f -> -0.5f, subicons

```You should then be able to use HUD Shift to move the [c]ManeuverBar[/c], although I don't know what effect the different scales will have. There'll also be the equivalent offsets for the base-side bar, but we'll see how these go, first…

Time to bust out Hexedit? Been a while since I’ve even touched it, and floating point numbers! I’ll get on it, still building this rig! My parents delayed me slightly by needing the room I am working on it in.
