Rev's Simple UI

Simple UI / Simple UI No Options Update v2.2.0

[FIX] Food and water no longer bounce between 99% and 100% while overfilling. However you will no longer see 99%. Food and water will go from 98% to 100% and when going down will go from 100% to 98%. This seemed a way better trade off to me then the bouncing between 99 and 100 the entire time you're overfilling. And with that fix there is no longer any known issues with any of the modlets.

Under The Hood Changes

All the changes below will only affect those who edit the mod. Normal mod users will not be affected by these changes.

I made templates for the stat bars and buffs used in Simple UI that can be found in the controls xml.

Everything in the windows xml was rewrote using these new templates.

The stat bars should actually be much easier to change basic things on now like bar size, content color, icon color, text size, etc...

More complex changes though would need the template edited or just the bar itself replaced in the windows xml.

Since these elements are used often in the version with options this will make things much easier for me going forward.

Simple UI No Options got the same treatment mostly just to keep it in line with the main mod.

I've also forced the vanilla Buffpopout to not be visible in Simple UI No Options instead of moving it off screen so that it just never gets rendered.

Simple UI Toolbelt No Options

Everyone seems to hate the tabs being on the side of the toolbelt so how does the above new layouts look instead?

 
Default Layout

Vertical Layout

Radial Layout

No Stat Bars Layout (will make more sense once new toolbelt layouts are done)

Very early concept of the new left HUD layout options. Everything still needs resized, repositioned, and made to look pretty but should give an idea of where this is going. Also changed the water bar fill color to a light blue since it was basically same color as the stamina bar.

Made a little progress. If you click the left side of a hud layout button it will give you that layout with detailed buffs and if you click the right side it gives you that layout with the vanilla buffs. New buff displays might come in a diff update later on.

 
I have always loved Simple UI by Steadman420. Nice to see it back.

But can you make a 120 slot for storage chests?

I have thought about it. I'm trying to keep everything existing save friendly though. (All mods should be able to not only be installed but removed without affecting existing saves) So when I do get around to this I most likely would make extra storage containers that have a larger inventory. Might even just replace the vanilla recipe with the new ones, not sure. This way at least it wouldn't affect existing containers.

Might be a little though as I'm still a day or two away from finishing up the 3.0 version of the left hud and toolbelt but can look into it after that. Then it will be time for me to catch up on some game playing before coming back for the right side hud so it matches the left  :D

Update time is finally here and it's a good one. New buff displays, new stat bar layouts, new toolbelt layouts, lots of cool options now.

Simple UI v3.0.0 Update
There is now 4 tabs under the left HUD

  • Default - This is the original Simple UI look just with better buff displays.
  • Radial - This gives you radial stat bars as well as circle buff displays.
  • Vertical - This gives you vertical stat bars.
  • None - This removes the stat bars and just leaves buff displays in it's place. (Works well with some of the new toolbelt options.)
Pressing the left side of any the layout tabs listed above will give you that layout with a simple buffs display.

Pressing the right side of any the layout tabs listed above will give you that layout with a detailed buffs display.

Simple UI Toolbelt v3.0.0 Update
The 4 tabs on the toolbelt have been moved under it, renamed, and have new functions now.

Default

  • Clicking left side of this layout tab gives the default Simple UI Toolbelt look with just an xp bar at bottom of toolbelt.
  • Clicking the middle of this layout tab adds toolbelt numbers to the toolbelt.
  • Clicking the right side of this layout tab adds temp and elevation info next to the xp bar.
Alternate(meant to compliment the radial layout above)

  • Clicking left side of this layout tab gives something similar to the default but toolbelt number backgrounds are round.
  • Clicking the right side of this layout tab adds temp and elevation info next to the xp bar.(minus player temp since radial layout has this)
  • Only two options on this layout since no toolbelt numbers would look same as default.
HUD

  • Clicking left side of this layout tab gives vertical stat bars on the side of the toolbelt.
  • Clicking the middle of this layout tab adds toolbelt numbers to the toolbelt.
  • Clicking the right side of this layout tab adds temp and elevation info next to the xp bar.
Mini HUD

  • Clicking left side of this layout tab gives small compact stat bars under the toolbelt.
  • Clicking the middle of this layout tab adds toolbelt numbers to the toolbelt.
  • Clicking the right side of this layout tab adds text to the compact stat bars.
The last two layouts on the toolbelt above are meant to be used with the "None" tab on the left HUD.

The HUD layouts on the toolbelt have a stealth bar that appears on the top center of the toolbelt and extends in both directions.

Extra Info

There was so much that changed under the hood on this mod that the changelog for those would be too big. Lets just say it got a nice little revision under the hood and now relies heavily on the new templates in it's controls xml :D

I have some new screenshots as well and will try and get them up later.

Also Simple UI No Options and Simple UI Toolbelt No Options have not been updated yet. I will get to them soon however they won't really be changing much anyway, mostly just a new buff display and toolbelt number backgrounds. And no I most likely won't be doing a no options version of each of the hud layouts that are now in the regular Simple UI version. The no option versions will most likely stay the classic Simple UI look that is the default in the regular mod version.
 

Github and Nexusmods pages will be updated shortly after this post.

Simple UI Toolbelt would definitely not.

Everything else should work though I would imagine but can't say for sure as thats not my mod.

I might consider a toolbelt patch at some point but really don't like the idea of starting that trend as it becomes a slippery slope fast. Make one patch for one mod then next thing you know everyone wants you to make a patch for their fav mod as well 🤣

All Simple UI modlets are completely free use though and anyone is welcome to do anything they want with them with no strings attached. Up to and including modifying them and uploading versions that work with something else.

I havent read through this entire thread but there's a small problem, if there's an icon on the left side hud, say lacerated limb or something, you cannot click on the icon to get more detailed information about it, this is important info for new players & old players if TFP ad something new. Thx.

Edit: oh and having the numbers above the toolbelt slots for all but one design is horrible, I would prefer not to see all those numbers, a toggle button would be great.

This was the trade off for the custom buff panels. If you hover over a buff you can still see a detailed name and timer. And if you want a description for that buff you can still open the character screen and look. Not being able to click on it seemed pretty trivial to me as all it does is open the character screen that you would read the buff description from. Didn't really figure that would be a challenge and is where most people look for detailed character info anyway. (edited side not on this:  After opening inventory it's actually farther to mouse to a buff above hud than just switch to character info, just sayin 😜)

And as far as the toolbelt goes you may want to read the description and/or actually try it out as there is literally a toggle and all layouts aside one has a version without toolbelt numbers. The only reason the Alternate layout doesn't is because it would look the same as the default. All that is also listed in the info for the toolbelt. Unless you mean the no options version but that's why it's called no options.

Hope this helps 👍

Hi @RevenantWit,

this mod looks nice and neat.

I have some issues.

The mod seems not enable if I put the mods into %AppData%/7DaysToDie. If I put the mod into 7 Days To Die\Mods, it works.

I'm using my Xbox controller to play the game. When I open my inventory and press L/R button to switch the categories, simple UI also switches its layout.

Thanks for the info on the controller stuff. I will try and remember to plug one in and see If I can do something about that when working on the next update.

Good to hear that.

Sorry, I forgot to mention another one. On the vertical layout, the value of a stamina is shown in decimal numbers, when I am running.

The game actually tracks it that way it's just when you do stat current with max it only shows whole numbers, but since there wasn't a lot of room I just did stat current and that will show actual value instead.
