Description:

'Less intrusive HUD and Map' resizes and repositions some of the HUD/Map elements and removing others. Now with resolution 1680x1050!!!


Details:
=======

!!!Warning this is only working for resolution 1600x900 and 1680x1050 at the moment. All I can do for you, is giving you a tutorial on how to make your own resolution version with SWiX at the end of this document!!!

This mod does the following in detail:

1. Resizes the map icons and gives them colours:

I. Settlements = Beige
II. Fortifications = Dark Gray
III. Underworlds = Ice Blue
IV. Mystical Places = Purple
V. Interesting Places = Dark Red
VI. Camps = Light Brown
VII. Groves = Lime
VIII. Undiscovered Places = Black
IX. Citys = Individual Colours
X. Doors&Waypoints = Neon Green

2. Resizes, repositions and partialy recolours health/stamina/magica and enchanted charge to the lower screen
3. Resizes and repositions the sneak eye to the lower screen and gives it colour depending on how wide the eye is opened
4. Removes enemy health&name, enemy on compass, ammo count, hidden/detected messages and the level up meter
5. Resizes and recolours the crosshair and cursor
6. Removes most of the top left corner messages via an .esp

Also, have a look at the pictures provided.

The Mod also comes with the extra option of no flashing HUD, except the Sneak Eye. Look in the 'NoFlashHUD'-Folder and replace the original hudmenu.gfx with this one.


Install:
=======
1. Unpack the files and copy to X:\...Skyrim\Data
2. Enable the .esp in Data Files

Uninstall:
=========
1. Delete the NoMoreMessages.esp in Data folder
2. Delete the following files

X:\...Skyrim\Data\Interface\cursormenu.swf
X:\...Skyrim\Data\Interface\map.swf

Incompatibility:
===============
This Mod is incompatible with any Mod that changes the same files or variables.

Known Issues or Bugs:
====================
Only useable for resolution 1600x900 and 1680x1050 at the moment. The version of the Mod is 0.1 but it is completely playable. I just give it a low version number for future development plans. If you find any bugs not related to resolution, let me know and I'll do my best to squish them.

1. Get The SWiX SWF Tool and Notepad++. Install booth.
2. Find the hudmenu.gfx inside this download
3. Open the hudmenu.gfx with Notepad and change the very first instance from "CFX" to "CWS" and safe the file
4. Rename the modified hudmenu.gfx to hudmenu.gfx.swf
5. Open the hudmenu.gfx.swf with the SWiX tool
6. Now you have to find the following ID's and the variables contained. Within the variables look for TranslateX (horizontal, high numbers right, lower numbers left) and TranslateY (vertical, higher numbers down, lower numbers up)

XI. 686 = there's only one variable to be changed
XII. 693 = there is only one variable to be changed

7. Change all thoose variables to your likings, but leave the others untouched. Don't fiddle around with the scales. Don't forget to safe.
8. Open the file in Notepad again and change the first instance back to CFX then safe and rename the file back to hudmenu.gfx.

I'm aroud 13500 with Y Axis and 1500-4000 with X Axis, so depending on your resolution you know roughly were to aim for. I'm sorry I can't do much more for you, but unfortunately my system doesn't provide any other resolution. If you arranged the variables with your given resolution please provide me the files, so I can incooperate them into the package...thanks.
