Horizontal Bars

[Uisor]

I'm trying to make health and bullettime bars horizontal, well they already are horizontal, but they still work like normal MP2 bars.

What I wonder is that have anyone previously tried this and if yes, have they succeeded in it? And ofcorse would be kind enough to help me out whit this.

So the main question is, how I can make the bars decrease from right to left?

Attached is a screen to show how the current HUD looks.

off topic: Is this a map made by you? - if not - where can I get it?
(It's the subway scene from The Matrix, eh?)

A typical Joonas answer http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif.
Maybe you care enough to explain this?
I haven't tried this, thought it was hardcoded, didn't take a look at it. But if it is not hardcoded it's great news.
I'll have a look at it right now http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif.

It's no different than what we did to change the Civil Unrest HUD. Go look at our source files and you'll see how to reposition and completely change the hud Uisor.

Just give credit to the team or Code_Warrior.

Speaking of horizontal bars, is that possible for the loading bars on a loading screen?

I know, I have played Operative, but haven't seen any for MP2.

Yes it's made by me and it's the subway from The Matrix. It's not yet downloadable, because it will be part of "The Agents", Matrix project of mine.

I'd like to know this as well...is it these values that require it to be changed?

[HealthSpecific]
LowHealth = 1.0; // normalized 0..1 health
ShowInverseHealth = true; // true = use "painbar", false = use healthbar

// these variables only matter for the player
[DamageFlash]
MinimumHitPoints = 1; // amount of hitpoints to lose at once to trigger the flash
MinimumColor = A5000010;
MinimumFadeOutTime = 0.05;
MinimumStayInTime = 0.1;

MaximumHitPoints = 140; // amount of hitpoints where to clamp the flash
MaximumColor = A50000D0;
MaximumFadeOutTime = 1.0;
MaximumStayInTime = 0.1;

[Visibility]
Duration = 2.10;
FadeInTime = 0.05;
FadeOutTime = 2.0;

[Sprites]
{
[RegenerationSprite]
// reference point must be DOWN for this sprite
ReferencePoint = DOWN;
Position = ( 25, 478, 0 );
Width = 45;
Height = 89.0;
Filename = "bitmaps\Health_Max_Foreground.dds";
DefaultVertexAlpha = 192;

[Sprite]
// reference point must be DOWN for this sprite
ReferencePoint = DOWN;
Position = ( 25, 478, 0 );
Width = 45;
Height = 90.0;
Filename = "bitmaps\Health_Max_Foreground.dds";
DefaultVertexAlpha = 255;

[BackgroundSprite]
// reference point must be DOWN for this sprite
ReferencePoint = DOWN;
Position = ( 25, 478, 0 );
Width = 45;
Height = 90.0;
Filename = "bitmaps\Health_Max_Background.dds";
DefaultVertexAlpha = 128;

The loading bars are already horizontal

Damn it, I meant vertical :P
