New HUD for CityRP

[SoulRipper]

I'm going to design a new HUD for Fearless using HTML instead of VGUI. This will slightly increase the performance. Also HTML is easy-peasy, a HUD could be made within a few days.


Together with Codebrain I will develop it shortly.

My ideas for the new HUD are to clean it up. A lot of information seen on the screen is not changed, and therefore not needed to be seen constantly. The use of icons instead of icons and text. Everybody would quickly find out the icon functions, the shape of a heart with a ring around it, could be the health indicator for example. 

Let's use high resolution SVG images that will look good on both 1440px and 4K.



I would like to hear your ideas.

These could be the bar icons, these are from Red Dead Redemption 2. This is only an example, and sorry for the low-res picture:

Clean up: 

• Character name;
  
• clan; 
  
• description; 
  
• RP points;
  
• total playtime ;
  
• top black information bar
  

(this info could be seen on the character page)


Keep: 

• Ingame time;
  
• job;
  
• salary;
  
• location;
  
• health, stamina, battery, etc
  

Locations of HUD elements:

• Player info: left bottom
  
• Notifications: right top
  
• Health bars: right bottom
  

Goals:

• Modern look
  
• Easy on the eyes: No flashing things
  
• Less colorful. The current icons are having many different colors and distract gameplay.
  
• Less HUD seen, more seen of the player's view.
  
• Make all systems use the same HUD, the F1 menu, the property system etc. Currently it's all slightly different
  
• A HUD that would be loved by ya'll.
  
• The possibility to switch back 'old-style mode'
