I decided to put together a UI mod that covered all the changes I wanted in the manner I wanted them changed.
CUIO makes 14 modifications to the game HUD and interface:

*Subdued target reticule
*Target reticule visible during archery
*Transparent compass easily visible during the day or night
*Minimized Health/Stamina bar
*Hide/Show HUD using the 8 and 9 keys  (in KCD 1.3 you may need to wait a minute after launch for this to function)
*No fog of war on main map
*No visor overlay in combat
*No arrow trails
*No sharpen vision effect when drunk
*No motion blur (can be restored in user.cfg if you want it)
*No windshield blood splatter on screen
*Added toggle in user.cfg to Enable Fog in game
*Added toggle in user.cfg to turn off Slow Motion effect during perfect block


Works fine with any inventory retexture or sorter mods you might like.




INSTALATION:

*If you do not already ahve one, create a new folder in your KCD game folder called "Mods"
*In the archive you will find a folder and a user.cfg file.
*Place the folder inside the Mods folder, NOT the Data folder.

*Place the user.cfg file in the main game folder

IMPORTANT:  If you already have a user.cfg :

*Do NOT overwrite your existing user.cfg
*Copy the info from this mod's user.cfg and paste it into your current user.cfg



HUD Only:  If you like the CUIO HUD but don't want the extras, you can download a HUD only version here:
