Is there a HUD mod for overland map

from Elemental Forums

Hi @all,

I found the possibility to mod FE yesterday  :D

Does anybody know if there is a mod for the HUD icons? I disable the icons for quests over quest locations and units, my dream are colors on the ground. Is there a HUD mod or is it easy to create it?

@Primal_Savage: Thank you for your inspirations! I will take a look on the weekend on number 3.

But my biggest "problem" are the units: In the cloth map every unit has a colored base, but not in the 3D map. It needs a color on the ground only, this would be cool.

If I understand what you are wanting correctly, that may be an issue. Seems you are wanting the actual tile to light up with the color of the occupying unit. If so, the problem is multiple units/armies can occupy the same tile from different factions.

@BlackSmokeDMax: Yes, you understand correctly. You mean its not possible. But why it works in the cloth map?

@Primal_Savage: I can try giantic units, but I can't distinguish the units well without fraction colors :(

@Primal_Savage: Thank you very much for your good work! This help me to understand the system of FE and your tip with the delay is very good.  I disable so much UI as possible and play with no faction power window and with the uEye mod... As workaround I have played FE in some hot times on the cloth map only to see clear what is going on.
