* Is there any way to get only the HUD from minimalist project and ditch all the rest of it ?
* Also on the minimalist HUD any way to make the selected weapon\item stay on screen rather than slide away ?
* And is there a way to keep the cristal textures in the health meter in the min. HUD rather than the shields ??
* And about switch weapon and item cycle places, ie: weapon in left, item in right ??
I mean i love this HUD, but would like to change the things meantioned above plus not install the rest of Minimalist Project, since i made many tweaks on my own and am quite liking the feeling of playing it as it is but this HUD pwns, props to the creator :thumb: :thumb: !!

Ouch, like a dagger through my heart. ;) Have you tried the full installation? I worked pretty hard to get things feeling as close to the original games in execution as I could. Yes, you absolutely can get only the hud. With a little guidance on my part and a little detective work on yours. Shall we procede?

There sure is, but if you're looking to have the items stay on the screen, I would start with the retro hud and tweak from there. The retro hud has the weapons cycle like in the original games now. They no longer slide in from the side.

If you install Minimalist 1.4.1, then you will have the shields but if we're just tweaking the hud, then the crystals will remain.

I can't go into great detail on how to do this as I'm working, but for now I will say that you should take a look at the T3UI.ini from the Minimalist Project and then compare it with the original T3UI.ini installed with the game. Everything is labeled fairly well in the INI files. If you get stuck or have any questions, feel free to send me a PM and I'll help you out. ;)

Lets go then !

;) This is where to begin. Just follow my last sentence.

The secrets of what you're looking for are in the T3UI.ini. Just compare the old version with the Minimalist version. Any problems, just send me a private message.

Finally had time to play Thief 3 with Minimalist Project.
Unfortunately, version 1.4.1 still seems to have problems with german umlauts, especially "ü" and "ö". Any chance this will get fixed soon??
New Horizon on 26/7/2005 at 19:14
Sure can. I tried my best to make an exact replica of the previous font maps but unfortunately since I can't read German, I don't know what is right or wrong. :) If you could send or post screen shots, I will have a better idea of exactly where those letters are on the font map and can trace the problem that is throwing them off. Likely just a bad measurement on my part.

Excellent. Thank you so much. :) I should be able to track down the problem now.
Once I find out which lines they're on, I'll double check each letters measurements for accuracy. A pixel or two off on one or two letters can throw the whole thing way out of whack.

(with the wall-hug bug fixed, I am of the opinion that TDS is hard enough).

http://www.timgormley.ca/~minimalist) Minimalist Project 1.4.1 has it. It was just an improper setting in the Deadly Shadows gamesys that took about 2 seconds to change. The light gem bonus given to Garrett when in Wall Hugging mode was so high, that it caused the light gem to drop into negative numbers, making Garrett invisible to the AI...even if they bumped into him. I decreased the setting by half and it worked. :) It's fun and it helps get a good sweat on...will they find me...will they not. ;)
