EDIT: Thanks for the help, HUD is now released :)

This is complete... it just does not have a proper installer and has not been divided up yet. I usually like to separate things like object icons and such.

But, this is a beta so if you are picky... pick through it yourself for now :D

This is a lot like MOH version 2, it has the following changes...

The MG and Fire select Bars (http://www.dodbits.com/downloads/HUD/MOH_Beta/Fire_MG_Cap_Bar.jpg) are moved to the Player Status Panel.

The Win Panels have changed as they were interfering with some Plug-in panels used on some servers. Small graphics also added to places like the winpanels, object icons and K/D area...

Axis Jagd win (http://www.dodbits.com/downloads/HUD/MOH_Beta/Jagd_Axis_Win.jpg)

Allied Kalt win (http://www.dodbits.com/downloads/HUD/MOH_Beta/US_Win_kalt.jpg)

I tried to get them as low as possible, small and still get long names in.

The file dod_english got a touch-up too, the changes were shortened radio messages, and the old class names in dod 1.3. This affects the Scoreboard and the class selection screen too...

Scoreboard (http://www.dodbits.com/downloads/HUD/MOH_Beta/Scoreboard.jpg)

There is a Teamselect Menu (http://www.dodbits.com/downloads/HUD/MOH_Beta/MOH_3_Teammenu.jpg) as well, it's the old version 1 but fixed after the June 28 update broke it.

There are the two seperate versions, both are installer types, the ZIP types will have to wait.

I am a bit short on pictures and I used some old ones, there are many options in the installer...

BASIC HUD INSTALL... Replaces the Player status panel, end-of-round panels, repositions other panels and colors.

OBJECT ICONS... Replaces Object icons with Iron Cross (or Swastika Flag) and US Flag icons.

MINIMAP ICONS... Replaces Minimap icons with Iron Cross (or Swastika Flag) and US Flag icons.

PLAYER ID ICONS... Replaces the player ID icons with Iron Cross (or Swastika Flag) and US Flag types.

German and US Flags... Flag Textures by INsane. Simple, dirty 48 Star US Flag and Iron Cross (or Swastika Flag).

Custom XHAIRs... Installs extra custom Crosshairs includes a ONE DOT solid XHair.

Teamselect Menu... Installs a custom teammenu with custom commands... Minimap.. Audio.. Chat Controls.

Small Netgraph Text... Installs a custom font to shrink the netgraph size one third smaller.

Mani Panel Fix... Installs a file that lowers the Mani advert Panel lower... away from the flags.

DoD 1.3 Class names... Installs the authentic class names the same as DoD 1.3 like MG42-Schütze a Machine Gunner.

SMALL FONTS... Installs small fonts. This will affect Chat font and the kills and deaths message area.

EDIT:
Hi all, I have had a bit of a problem with dodbits... it's sort of gone :)

I have a site back up...but the files are a little messed up.

The two BETA MOH HUDs also had a problem with the custom flags (wrong folder)... no big loss but that is now fixed.

EDITED: OLD FILES REMOVED....

I always liked this hud, I wish you'd make a non-Swastika version though.

One question: Is it possible to use the new scoreboard, turtle, Class selection names and countdown stopwatch with your Version 7 hud?


P.S Nice stuff, as always.:)

A non-Swastika version is possible and as I found with the other versions I may have to give that option.
This Beta does not have any options and has a lot of stuff mixed in as one package.

The class names is a easy option as well, to get that the same just delete the dod_english file in dod/resource and the two files... ClassMenu_Axis.res and ClassMenu_Allies.res in the dod/resource/UI/ folder.

Again, when the final installer is made this will be an option that is just a tick or un-tick selection.

What puts me off making a proper installer is the extra work at this time. A fair amount of people don't like the installer and like a Zip package.

It's double the work when I change stuff :)

I edited my original post to ask about the turtle and stopwatch as well.:D

Working on it :)

I have the non Swastika Graphics done.

The stop watch is a graphic file "progress_bar.vtf" in dod\materials\vgui, delete it for the normal one.

The turtle is a special font file that can be turned off in a res file. Working on that now.

EDIT: Turtle is too hard to get rid of as it would mean too many versions of a font option... it would double the work sorry :)

These will be options in the installer version.

Zip version will be more like one package and delete what you don't like.

Thanks for the feedback it helps me decide on the options :) I can always rely on you Guyver :D

What about the small graphics like the Shield and small flags in the winpanels and Kills/Deaths. Are they OK? Should leave as a "required" file?

The idea there was to make a graphic look more like a Metal Pin, like an award... continuing the Medal theme.

Will have a download soon.


EDIT: Here is a screenie of the Non Swastika Version with standard capture bar...

Yes there is but I am still testing, I will place a download of it for you to test, I will slip in some various object icon designs too.

Post back soon :D

Just gave it a run-through on both det maps and also flash. I must say it's very nice. I especially like how you did the alternate fire modes on the STG44/BAR.

EDIT:
It needs the small font options of your v.7 hud.:)

[b]One question: Is it possible to use the scoreboard and Class selection names with your Version 7 hud?

I didn't answer that... must have read it too fast.

The version 2 you have there will remain mostly the same, all that is needed to that version is a installer has to be made and un-tickable options added.

The main thrust behind the new ones is to lower the winpanels because some servers have those panels pop-up in that area at the end of the round :)

The version 2 will also get a Swastika/non-Swastika download in ZIP and NSIS packages.

PLEASE SEE THE FIRST POST FOR THE MOST UP TO DATE VERSION :D

Hi all, I have had a bit of a problem with dodbits... it's sort of gone :)

I have a site back up...but the files are a little messed up.

The two BETA MOH HUDs also had a problem with the custom flags (wrong folder)... no big loss but that is now fixed.

The files are at fpsbanana.com...



MOH Ver3 standard HUD (http://www.fpsbanana.com/guis/5356)

MOH Ver3 Swastika HUD (http://www.fpsbanana.com/guis/5357)

I will attempt to get dodbits.com back up asap.

Cheers
