This mod changes the heads up display (HUD) graphic, aka. your compass and status bar visuals to a custom variant with a darker color scheme. This game can often get very dark during night time, and the default HUD has very bright colors that constantly glare at you, which can be distracting when you're exploring pitch black darkness.
I rendered a completely new graphic for the HUD elements that is made out of dark cast iron instead of the bright brown original (sandstone?). The design is inspired by the various HUD elements in Thief: Deadly Shadows (2004)
NOTICE: Because the color scheme is intentionally darker to make it stand out less in darkness, it can also be a bit more difficult to make out the details in the compass during daytime, against bright backgrounds.
