[SA|WIP] Mafia 2 hud

[riquenunes]

So, some days ago I was having a chat with lpgunit about Mafia and I told him that I wanted to make a hud for San Andreas just like it, surprisingly he had its textures and sent me, so I've edited Alexander's GTA IV hud and Wesser's Windshield GUI here and there and this is what I got:

 

 

As you can see I managed to change the armor bar to the left and health bar to the right, it took me a while to get things acurate, but I think I'm getting there, the size and position from the radar and wanted stars is EXACTLY like in Mafia 2:

 

 

 

Sorry, for the huge pics. D:

 

It will only be released after I finish it completely and get authorization from Wesser and Alexander to include their mods. And won't be released here too, as it has stuff from the original game which is not allowed here. Anyway, google is your friend.

And you probably will say: 'So what? You've only edited things and putted together' Well, it isn't as easy as you think moving all those stuff testing, moving again, testing, untill everything has a perfect position, so no bitching here, ok?

 

And keep in mind this is a showroom, there's nothing wrong in only showing my progress.

 

Oh, and BTW 1024x768 pics aren't exactly easy to find, so if someone has this resolution and has the game, I would be more than happy if you could share some screens showing some hud components, like all weapons for example, makes my job much easier when getting things to the right position.

And remember, this mod wouldn't be possible without Alexander, Wesser and lpgunit. So once I release it thank him guys, not me.

Looks nice, keep it up man.

[Gramps]

Nice mate xD

 

Oh and BTW, if you use Google Image search, you can click on advanced search, and enter the dimensions of the images that you want

[riquenunes]

Yeah, I know, but most images aren't even from Mafia. :S

[Wesser]

Why not? I like how you're working on but you should squeeze the ammo text a bit more.

[Adler]

Wow that's so cool! Keep up the great work dude.

[TigerTanker]

Looks pretty cool! I was wondering when will the first Mafia II-related mod come to any of the GTA series.

 

Keep up the good work!

[riquenunes]

*cough* *cough*

 

 

I might remove that blue ring later, it didn't turn out as I expected.

Or maybe I'll release two versions, you decide. Ooor if someone knows how to put it under radar icons it would be even better.

Next thing to be done is make location/car names/icons disappear after some time, and find a way to make the name of current radio station appear above those icons. And some more adjustments to the radar and heath/armor bars.

 

@Wesser: Nice to see you here.

I know about the ammo text, I didn't really changed, just putted on a position similar to Mafia to see how it would look, when I finish the right part of the hud I'll come back and ajust weapon icons and ammo.

nice work !

 

In the first pic.. looks like there is 817 bullets in the clip ..

 

In the third pic, the stars are up top, and down bottom ?

 

And that blue ring... hrrm.... It looks nice.. but with the icons on the outer-edge, it doesn't really work Just my opinions..

 

Just my opinions .. Haven't played Mafia 2 yet But your HUD is looking good..

 

Once finished, I might switch from the Undercover HUD mod that you found

 

Maybe you could ask someones permission to include there Weapon icons ?

 

Keep up the good work dude !

Hey, good to see you again.

What currently is keeping those two numbers far from each other is the letter 'L', because I couldn't figure out how to make '|' appear in game. It will be changed later though, same for the wanted stars issue, stars from above are from gta iv hud, while the others from radar are the ones I plan to keep. So later I'll remove that stars from iv hud, don't worry.

As for the icons, I was thinking in doing a version with original Mafia icons first and then another with that icons from that guy you sent me.

And the blue ring, yeah it turned out kinda weird, I think I'll just put the red ring when you get shot again.

looks great, nice job!

[Mr. Scratch]

[PsychoTurk]

Awesome.Good work !

[riquenunes]

Small update:

 

[TigerTanker]

One word, brilliant. Really, it's great. I'll surely download it once it's finished . Keep it up, mate!

[vans123]

Nice, very cool

[Mr. Scratch]

Are you using UltraThing?

[riquenunes]

Yes.

[Gramps]

It looks f*cken epic mate ! :beer: :beer: :beer: :joint: :joint:

 

Can't wait !

[Function-X-]

Great job, it looks fantastic

Did you remove the compression from IV hud txd's ?

[t0grul]

awesome. will you release dis sh*t?

[Kmeto 2]

This is awesome. Good job

[riquenunes]

Yup.

But these new textures are actually smaller, so the file didn't get too big. Also notice, that the radar ring is changed from the first post to the rest and I didn't touch on radar icons yet, apart from north, player and waypoint icons.

 

@Togrul1996: yes, when I finished everything, or atleast when I have done everything I can.

 

Currently I'm having some problems in making the location/radio/car name text and icons go away, I'll move on and continue the rest. If a experienced coder is reading this and wants to help just let me know.

Updates:

 

[Narcis_speed6]

looking forward to try it

[Silent]

Currently I'm having some problems in making the location/radio/car name text and icons go away,

It should be easy to do, but do those icons would go with animation, or just dissapear?

Any of these, if it's possible go with a fade effect it would be even better. If you're interested in helping just let me know and I'll send you the files.

The biggest problem is: the script keeps constantly checking if you're in a car/zone or listening to a radio station, so if I make the text go away after some time it will loop the script again, show the text and make it go away again, so instead of disappearing it keeps flashing. :S

It's a 1956 Chevrolet BelAir, you can get it from here, under the category 'fifties'.

 

EDIT: Removed that blue ring and added back a feature that was present in the original GTA IV hud but isn't in Mafia:

 

 

The blue ring might come back if I find a way to put it under radar icons.

One more update before going to bed,

 

 

Almost finishing it.

Don`t know about the others but the pistol icon is exactly in same position and size as in Mafia, you can even open that Mafia screen on the first post on one tab and this on another and see for yourself.
