I HAVE FOUND HOW TO EDIT THE COLOUR!! if your unsatisfied with the color of the limb name and vats hit chance or want to customize it to what you want (call it "Custom Vats") you need three tools, the Bethesda Archive Extractor (available on the starfield nexus page) JPEXS Free Flash Decompiler and the BAKA File Tool. i have tried other BA2 packaging tools none seem to work for me other than BAKA. 1. download the sVATS.BA2 file off nexus 2 Open BAE simply drag and drop the ba2, it'll make a copy of the file for it press extract and choose where you want to put it, location name etc.. It doesn't matter as long as you can find it. Close BAE 3. Now you have the loose files, open JPEXS and press the file icon, then navigate to where you extracted the BA2 and open the interface file, then click and open the vatsmenu.swf file. 4. open the file named "Texts" you'll see a list of "DefineEditText". the ones responsible for our red color are (chid: 12 & 13) click on one of them, look at the right hand side of JPEXS youll see "parameters" and in the box were concerned about lines 9 and 16, line nine has "Color #ff____" and line 16 has "color=#_____" change both of those to your desired color (the "__" is a placeholder for your colors hexadecimal value.) Do the same thing to (chid: 13) Save then close JPEXS. 5. Open BAKA. click "paths" in the bottom left and click "select fallout76 path" and copy paste the path to your fallout76 file (ex. C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout76). Press "Tool" again, <select game>, Fallout76. Underneath "Game Mode Select" check "Enabled" for Manual Data Folder, Select Data Folder, then navigate to where your extracted files are. 6. Create Archive. Done. it'll name the file something like ___-Main, you can change it to just be sVATS, and install it into your data folder like usual, it'll replace the file if you already have Simple Vats installed.
(The other DefineEditText options I'm assuming are for other parts of the UI, right now their color is white and transparent. Probably how he hid the HUD aspects. change one of there color values and see what happens, I'm sure there are plenty of other things that could be done, it is modding so if people have experience messing with things or aren't scared too be my guest I'm just gonna mess with color)
This mod is amazing and vats much more pleasing to use. However, I don't think I can stay with using it. The RED Lettering is illegible for my colorblindness in many settings and I enjoy having the cripple bar.
Would it be possible to bring back the cripple bar and change the red to green or the default color? The reduced text size and changed design is so nice...

Since the update, the VATS is located far to the right of the marked body part. See screenshot.
Screen resolution 3440x1440. Are there any known solutions?
Solved by using and editing the current - vatsmenu.swf - file.
