Do you really need your name in two places? Maybe change the name underneath the mob to only show when the mouse is over the mob.- Yeah , I'm going to remove the name HUD & keep the name under the mob for others can see it when it's public. The hud itself looks nice though, basic, but essentially all you need.- Thank you, & what do you mean by essentially ? |
The green and yellow don't seem to go together in my opinion. Maybe try some different colors?

Well if all you have got is health and magic/ki/energy then all you need is those bars and your leveling section is nice too.
I'm basically saying it's good and compact, you're not cluttering the screen with useless graphics. |
No indication of what those randabars are.
Uncustomizable and pointless facial icon. Name in two places. (Only 1 name needs to be shown at all times) The bars fit into another, at a slanted angle..no differation possible in stats? |

I hate when HUDS take up a lot of room for nothing . I just like to stick to simple & easy to create huds, I couldn't think of anything cool to make so i just did an oval and 2 lines. |

Differation in stats = Stats cannot be customized and reflected with the bars based on how well they are aligned. |
The text icon is to big, i'll just have to add a "H" & a "E" to indicate it then....
I'm lost with the differation in stats >_> Simplify it some more. |

Only thing the player needs to worry about is, making sure that green bar doesn't dissapear, & that yellow bar maxing out .

Lol, there we go . I understand it now, and soo ? It doesn't have to . It does not have to, but it's a tip. If Stat #2 is x100 Stat #1, it'd be better to reflect that on a bar instead of: 1000/1000 HP 10000000/10000000 MP And the bar looks like ---------------------/ HP --------------------/ HP -------------------/ MP ------------------/ MP Is bad, imo. |
It's not MP, it's experience lol . The bar can be small, larger, or wider & it's still gunna be the same lol .

Also, a bar being of different lengths in not the same. Let's say: Billy has 500000 HP And 100000 out of 1000000000 total EXP His bar in this current game would be: ----------------/ HP ---------------/ HP ----/---------/ EXP ---/---------/ EXP Ever level looks the same, and therefore when EXP raises at a a large amount, differences can hardly be seen. Now in my uplifted version, ---------------/ HP --------------/ HP -------/-------------------------------/ EXP ------/-------------------------------/ EXP Billy can clearly tell how he has improved, and can clearly tell how much remains. |
I might add a thing if you click on it, a box will pop up saying how much you have >_> or something , lol. Orrrr..... they could just stop worrying about the number lol.

So you don't want to improve the interface sadly?
Oh well. Your choice. I voted No, however. |
