Hello guys!

I proudly like to present my first and honored script made from scratch:

alternatehud.png

Alternate HUD is a HUD based resource, used to replace the GTA SA HUD used here.

This script uses 100% DX elements. Script was my idea and some great scripters helped me throughout the creation! This resource features time, money, health & armor bar, weapon icons, ammo in clip and total ammo. It fits on all resolutions (thanks to R3mp) and works nicely.

Now I would like to let you all see my styles of the alternate HUDs, there is one available for now, but there will be more soon enough.

If someone could showcase the HUD, I'll be honored to the author of the video.

==========================================================================================================================================================

HUD Styles:

1. Compact (*updated* 1000 downloads! This resource is a SUCCESS!! :mrgreen: )

Outcome of my first hardwork and experiments. This type is of HUD is suitable for freeroam and some deathmatch gamemodes. RPG is not really suitable in my opinion because it only shows GTA time without seconds, but it's up to you to choose. Location of the HUD is on the bottom left of the screen, gives some sort of exotic feeling, which was my goal of the HUD.

This style is available for download now. Download it here: https://community.multitheftauto.com/index.php?p= ... ils&id=807

Latest version: 1.4.0

Changelog:

1.4.0 *MTA SA 1.1 onwards*:

- Re-positioned DX drawings for the second time.

- Flipped ammo and total ammo.

- Total ammo now works as it should be!

- Toggleable HUD (Look at the commands)

- Commands are altered.

1.3.5 Minor update *MTA SA 1.1 onwards*:

- Implemented custom wanted stars

- Hides the GTA wanted stars

1.3.0:

- Added dynamic health color.

- Added blink on the health bar if health is below 25%

- Minute time will now always show in 2 digits. (thanks to 50p)

- Armor bar will now hide if armor is 0% or no armor.

1.2.0:

- Changed weapon settings

- Re-positioned DX drawings (mostly weapon ammo to fit the weapon icons)

- Weapon icons are now included! (Thanks to 50p for this!)

1.1.0:

- Implemented weapon setting table to sort out what to display on the ammo. (Thanks to Doomed_space_marine and eXo|Dragon for the help)

- Added a function to hide the GTA SA HUD on player join.

1.4.0 to do list:

- GUIs to customize and set visibility of each HUD elements.

- Shorten script (Maybe should be done fast)

- Replace radio stations with icons + fade effect

- Re-position the bars and weapon HUD a bit up.

- Improve total ammo mechanics (Not decreasing ammo until you reload)

A new update! Custom wanted stars is finally implemented. Though there is still no editing capabilities yet, I promise I'll make it sometime...

Credits goes to:

50p: For most of the help on this resource and the custom weapon icons (Big thanks!).

Doomed_space_marine: For a helpful hint while I get health & armor bar update problems, and helping me creating a weapon table.

R3mp: For helping me learn about guiGetScreenSize and of course, the Gui Editor!

Dragon: For helping me making a part of DX text visible or invisible according to weapon.

Dre-+-: For allowing me to take a little part of his HUD script, to improve my HUD resource.

Custom HUD requests for implementing in gamemodes are welcome! Please PM me with layout if you want me to create it.

Alright. I'm back...

Please don't talk off topic or about my client visual modifications again. I won't answer it again.

Now there is a new update, again!

Custom wanted stars are finally implemented. You see, in the new MTA SA 1.1, wanted stars HUD component are implemented, so I finally able to make use of it for my custom HUD.

And also, Total ammo now works as it should, and the HUD itself gets a new position!

- Re-positioned DX drawings for the second time.

- Flipped ammo and total ammo.

- Total ammo issue fixed.

- Toggleable HUD

- Commands are altered.

- Custom wanted stars are now implemented *MTA SA 1.1 onwards!*

- Hides the GTA wanted stars *MTA SA 1.1 onwards!*

- Cleaned up (When resource stops, turns on the GTA HUD.)

It was a simple star, given by 50p. He also helped me scripting it.Thanks for that! :D

Dre-+- did not think of being the rivals, instead, we shared scripts and compliments to each other! That's the right way!

Finally people working together.

I'm using this script in my stealth server at the moment.

I never tested it (and scripted it in a minute) but this looks better considering the wanted level.

  
for i = 1 to 6 do 
        if i < wantedlevel then 
            dxDrawImage(sWidth-21,sHeight-iCurrPosition,16.0,19.0,"images/star.png",0.0,0.0,0.0,tocolor(255,255,255,255),false) -- Wanted level 1 
        else 
            dxDrawImage(sWidth-21,sHeight-iCurrPosition,16.0,19.0,"images/star.png",0.0,0.0,0.0,tocolor(0,0,0,100),false) -- Wanted level 1 
        end 
        iCurrPosition = iCurrPosition + 21; 
end 
 

I like my code like I like my women: effective and cute.

Its not more complicated, its object oriented.

This way modifying the objects or adding objects is done in a second.

I.e. when you want to change the position of the clock, you just look which function creates the clock:

328. createClass("Clock",{Draw = drawTime});

329. createObject("Clock",{ --sWidth-81,sHeight-46,sWidth-10,sHeight-16

330. x =sWidth-81,

331. y =sHeight-46,

332. width =sWidth-10,

333. height =sHeight-16

334. });

and you can see xpos, ypos etc.

I have to fix "width" and "height", since you didn't script it all in one fashion but used different code for different objects.

Also, if you want to add a "drown bar" oxygen or something like that, it would be just another object (and another function).

328. createClass("Drownbar",{Draw = drawPlayerOxygen});

329. createObject("Drownbar",{

330. x =sWidth-181,

331. y =sHeight-146,

332. width =sWidth-110,

333. height =sHeight-116

334. });

145.function drawPlayerOxygen(elm)

146. if getElementData(localPlayer,"HUD_NOOXYGEN") then

147. return;

148. end

149. local xpos = elm.vx

150. local ypos = elm.vy

151. local width = elm.vwidth

152. local height = elm.vheight

153. oxygen = getPedOXYGEN_DOESNT_EXIST( localPlayer )

154. if oxygen <= 0 then

155. else

156. lineLength2 = width * ( oxygen / 100 )

157. dxDrawRectangle(xpos,ypos,lineLength2,height,tocolor(200,200,200,200),false)

158. dxDrawRectangle(xpos,ypos,width,height,tocolor(50,50,50,150),false)

159. end

160.end

The big, big plus of this code is that ALL elements are rendered / computed / working THE SAME WAY.

Add a Class, and an Object, add the function.

(Btw: the class contain the function "pointers", the objects contain the data.

In other words: The class defines the functions used. This can be done much more "object oriented", but I actually want it the aspect oriented way so that you can change the functions any time.)
