ZDoom

I-I understand, it' fine

hi and hope all is well on your side of the world. really love your mods here. if possible, could you copy-paste a feature from one of your mod to another mod of yours here? i adore the display percentage feature in mod [levelinfo v1.24], and would relish if the same feature be made available too in mod [ammoInfo v1.24]. thank you in advance and for the awesome work.

I think I found a bug with CrosshairHP. When you have a playerclass like Corvus in Heretic or the Fighter in Hexen which heads detach upon an XDeath and have sv_singleplayerrespawn set to true, upon respawning CrosshairHP will no longer work.

I've added this to the latest version of AmmoInfo. During the process I found a bug that incorrectly spaced percentages in LevelInfo, so that was also fixed. Glad you like the mods.

This definitely does happen, and I spent a while trying to figure out why to no avail. The engine does some weird things when you die in that manner, and it essentially breaks all of the add-ons in different ways. Since I couldn't pinpoint the exact cause(s), I just changed the way everything loads and unloads after death or respawning. This seems to fix it, but introduces a small delay in rendering when a map loads. It's a sufficient trade-off, I guess.

hi and hopefully all is well at your place. for me at least, your mod [simple hud addons] is currently the best hud addons for [gzdoom] the entire internet could offer. a rare delight with clean modern interface, superb granular settings and works very well with source port [gzdoom]. many thanks for the incredible handiwork. for your reference, i found some very minor glitches and have some suggestions that you may find useful for any future upgrades to simple hud addons, as per below. hope your mod [simple hud addons] would one day become a definite must-have for all legacy doom gamers. tqvm

ammoinfo
------------
bug(?):
* displays ammo where the weapon is not found in the game such as weapon [buzzsaw]. note: i'm using mod [project brutality 3.0] which is still beta, perhaps that causes the problem(?).

for your kind consideration for future upgrades:
* 0%-100% sliders to customize the % level of ammo to be coloured green, yellow or red. for example, a player may like their ammo to be displayed as green when at 100-67%, yellow when at 66-34%, red when at 33-0%.
* options to hide/unhide individual ammo type to be displayed. a player may want to focus using only certain ammo types (due to using favourite weapons), thus preferring the ammo list to be short to quickly read it at a glance.
* option to only display an ammo type only when a weapon using the ammo type is picked up by the player.

levelinfo
-----------
bug(?):
* time for powerup [berserk] counts up, not down.

for your kind consideraton for future upgrades:
* option to enable/disable display for each individual data: kills, items, secrets, time in map, total time played, actual time of day, etc.

crosshairhp
-------------
bug(?):
* object [decorativeskulls] is displayed eventhough in mod [crosshairhp] setting [show destructible object hp] was set to [no], as per screenshot below. for your kind consideration for future upgrades:
* 0%-100% sliders to customize the % level of monsters' health to be coloured green, yellow or red.

hitmarkers
-------------
bug(?): currently none found.

for your kind consideration for future upgrades:
* options to customise the colors of the hit markers and kill markers.

I'll try to address your feedback as best I can.

saibog wrote:* displays ammo where the weapon is not found in the game such as weapon [buzzsaw]. note: i'm using mod [project brutality 3.0] which is still beta, perhaps that causes the problem(?).

All of the AmmoInfo definitions are handled manually, and last I checked, that was a valid ammo type in the mod. In the event an ammo type doesn't exist, it would simply not appear in the list. It's also hard to determine what the "official" version of that mod is, since it's locked behind a Discord server.

* option to only display an ammo type only when a weapon using the ammo type is picked up by the player.

Going to have to say no to all of this, for now. The idea for green and red was always to represent 100% and 0% capacity respectively, and I don't really want to change that behavior. The only thing I'm open to tweaking is the percentage in which the ammo colors turn yellow. It's currently set at 25%, which seems fine most of the time, but I would be open changing that to 33% or something if that seems like a better choice.

saibog wrote:* time for powerup [berserk] counts up, not down.

This is the intended behavior. Berserk packs last until the end of the map, and this is why it counts up until the level ends.

saibog wrote:* option to enable/disable display for each individual data: kills, items, secrets, time in map, total time played, actual time of day, etc.

I'm not looking to split up kills, items, and secrets as they are core to LevelInfo's purpose. The map time is already toggleable and the actual time of day is currently impossible for mods to retrieve in GZDoom. I've added an option to display the total time played in the latest version of LevelInfo (1.26).

saibog wrote:* object [decorativeskulls] is displayed eventhough in mod [crosshairhp] setting [show destructible object hp] was set to [no]

This is a Project Brutality issue. That actor (like various other inanimate objects in mods derived from Brutal Doom) is assigned flags that identify it as a monster. This would need to be addressed by the developer(s) of the mod.

saibog wrote:* 0%-100% sliders to customize the % level of monsters' health to be coloured green, yellow or red.

It's going to be a no for this one as well. It's possible I may implement something like this in the future if I get around to redesigning the way CrosshairHP displays on screen.

saibog wrote:* options to customise the colors of the hit markers and kill markers.

This is something I've tested on my own and I don't like the way the engine handles color changes on the hit/kill markers. As a result, I'd need to manually include images for every color variant and that's simply not practical.

do you have any version compatible with gzdoom 3.3? I cannot use any higher version.

Afraid not, they all use some ZScript which requires 3.6 or newer. You may be able to find some older versions of the add-ons out there (which required 3.2), but I wouldn't recommend using them as they lack many of the important bug fixes and newer features.

Suggestion for Add-on : Make a Add-on that shows the Player's O2/Oxygen when Underwater, To show how long the player has to stay underwater
Kinda like Crosshair HP, but a meter that shows how long the player can stay underwater

This functionality already exists in LevelInfo. When the "Show Oxygen Time" setting is toggled, a countdown will appear when underwater indicating how much time you have left before you run out of air.

If I may request something, could you change all instances of numbered to named ACS scripts? This mod conflicts with Xaser's Parkour, causing for example the chaingun to not stop shooting when you let go of the fire button, preventing you from switching weapons until you're out of ammo.

None of the add-ons use numbered scripts (and they never have). I also tried to reproduce the issue you mentioned with Parkour and have been unsuccessful. Are you sure it's not something else that's causing this issue?

I'll need to investigate this further then, thanks for the heads up.

These addons are great.
Would you consider doing a health and keys info as well? That way, this could be a whole HUD. Maybe the health could behave similarly to the ammo info, with the numbers changing color depending on their percentage, and perhaps the keys could be colored letters, to better fit the style.
Anyway, just a suggestion. And great job.

Glad you find them useful. As for the health, armor and so forth, I designed these things to be used in tandem with HUDs of your preference. With that in mind, I don't think I'm going to add some of that generic information to these add-ons. I could maybe design a simple HUD in a similar style, if that's something people have an interest in.
