- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
- Changelogs
Thank you for making this the #1 most downloaded and endorsed preset for DEF_UI. Even the smallest project can be truly gratifying.
So, I hear you like minimalism?
Haven't you come to the right place.
Please, be my guest.
A quick overview
13 presets in total, divided in 6 collections
- Clean - Get rid of the clutter and let your screen breathe (see Management of the UI).
- Cleaner - You'd better count your ammo and AP, because your HUD certainly won't.
- Truly Immersive - Just you, your HP meter & direction markers against the wasteland: do you accept the challenge?
- Calibrated - For those who relish the benefits of having a Compass.
- Complete - Keep all elements from the vanilla UI, while enjoying the features Clean HUD.
- Compact Remastered - by simonpdx, an improved version of the Complete-Compact preset!
Installation
Installation methods
- Download with Manager, activate, and let the FOMOD guide you (simply Download and Install with manager if you chose Compact Remastered).
- Download manually, extract, read the included .txt guide, choose a preset and drop the interface folder in your Fallout 4/Data folder.
Required mods
Recommended mods
- No more cash register sound when XP gain The XP sound ruins the experience with most presets (see Management of the UI)
- Silent UI An alternative to the above, which offers the possibility to silence a large variety of UI related sounds on top of the XP gain
- Immersive HUD - iHUD A nice addition regardless of the selected preset
A more detailed description
So what do these presets do?
- Various elements have been removed from the HUD.
- The presets are organized in Collections, that determine which UI elements are removed.
- Each collection has up to 3 presets (see Types of presets), that determine how the UI elements are organized on the screen.
- All elements are 30% to 70% smaller than in vanilla.
- All elements have been moved away from the center of the screen or rearranged according to the new style (watch the video and the screenshots).
Types of presets
- Classic - in the style of Clean HUD 1.2 and eariler, every element is very small and as close to the edges of the screen as possible.
- Redesigned - the most important elements are slightly bigger than in Classic and are arranged similarly to the vanilla HUD (but still far from the center of the screen).
- Compact - like the various iterations of Clean HUD 1.3, which take inspiration from other games, the most important elements are compressed in the bottom left corner of the screen.
