[v1.2.1] Helmeter - Dynamic, reactive visor HUD

[DaDude001]

HUD mod I made, to practice ZScript and because most visor HUDs are bloated and/or outdated.
Has many features, including dynamic cracking, swaying, blood, startup/death sequences, and more.
Many features are also configurable, make sure to check the options before playing!

Requires at least GZDoom v4.11.0.
Tested in 4.11.3, 4.13.2, and 4.14.0.

Should support most gameplay mods, although some elements of their UI will not show up here.
If you want to make your own versions that support them, go ahead. (If you can stomach my god-awful code that is)
Also has built-in support for Brutal Doom v22.
If you are just using this for the visor component, it should be near-universal.

Preview Screenshots (with Beautiful Doom + Extermination Day)

Startup sequence

Gameplay

When using weapons without ammo, the HUD auto-hides the ammo display

Damage overlay animation, when you have armor

Visor retains a crack when low on armor

Death sequence: visor display malfunctions, but you can still see through a hole in the glass

Preview video (with Brutal Doom):

(A little outdated, but still works fine for the most part)

Sorry about the crappy name, it was the first think that came to my head when I started working on this, and it stuck around...

Should be fixed now.

Works perfectly! Lots of options too! Would be cool ifni can scale the items on the side of the visor.

I had an issue with the screen being red turns out if had another hud that went on when player dies and screen turned red, conflict solved.

v1.2 released, mainly focused on revamping the stat display and polishing the armor overlay animations.
Changelog:
-Updated armor damage animation
-Armor overlay colors are now entirely handled with code, should reduce file size a bit
-Added an idle animation to the armor overlay
-Updated number glitch effect; now can show any character, with much simpler code
-Berserk icon is now animated to better indicate that it is an indicator
-Redesigned stats panel
-Adjusted grenade indicator with a new, smaller font instead of grossly scaling down the normal small font

[YukesVonFaust]

is there an option to turn off sounds for the helmet btw?

[DaDude001]

no, but I could see about adding it
Added, along with a small handful of other misc. things
