Minimalist HUD and Crosshair
This is a HUD configuration I created for my personal use. A user requested that I upload it, so here it is. I do not intend to take any requests for changes or different versions to be made – this mod is provided as-is for anyone who wishes to make use of it. If you wish to modify your own HUD please refer to Goomashroom’s guide which is a great jumping-off point.
The goal is to make a minimalist UI and to resize or completely remove elements which I find unnecessary. The only crosshair that will activate will be the Dot, and only when hovering over an interact-able object or NPC.
I have removed almost every HUD notification including Quest and Objective Updates, Perk Boy and Condition Boy animations as well as the Tutorial text / animation.
Despite being a fan of Fallout since I first played Fo2 ‘long time ‘go,
I was not going to buy this game until some lovely modders had fixed the
atrocious UI. I am not a fan of huge flashy animations and giant bars
obscuring my view of the world I’m trying to immerse myself in.
Once I saw what people had already done with the UI I decided to take the
plunge, but no particular HUD mod suited my tastes; so I started messing
around and this is what I’ve come up with so far.
I am still learning what I’m doing with the .swf files so please bear in mind that there are a lot of messy edits and
some things may be broken. As it is, I have played about 15 hours while I have been playing with the configuration
and aside from some frustration nothing has gone wrong yet.
I added a couple of variations by request, sorry I will not make a version without crosshair changes as they are difficult to revert to original.
Optional files are self-explanatory.
Many thanks to Goomashroom for his Article on how to edit the HUDmenu.swf!
