Known Issue & compatibilty :
You can install this at any time during your playthrough, for MUA 2006 only, it won't affect the gameplay, characters at all.
Don't ALT+Tab though, that might cause the game to crash and waste fullscreen effect (if enabled from video settings, generally MUA don't like when we ALT-Tab), if you encounter this issue, do alt+ctrl+L and force close MUA.

UI RE Custom HUD by UMM - Issue related to the alternate edited png in texs folder :
Hud with thinner healthbar, but with issues, no more background for interaction dialog, which make hard to see what you can pick and no more layer below the hero healthbar (no big deal imo). It's because I removed the shadow part in the png file to make thinner healthbar.

Nice job, the Next-Gen interface is much better when compared to the old one.

2 things though: I think it would look even beter if you managed to add the font from MUA Remastered as well... and I recommend using Fraps for taking screenshots, as the game's default screenshot feature messes up a few parts.

Neat stuff! I agree with Maegawa; you should change the font as well.

Dude, this change is fantastic! The  interface of the menu of play / options slightly hinders the presentation video. Is there any way to keep the old interface just in this start screen?

[BaconWizard17]

This is very nice! The newer interface looks so much sleeker and cleaner

I tried, but did not found any solution unfortunately, the file changing the interface menu of play seems to be somehow linked with the start screen
So putting back the old interface menu also change the start screen
One solution could be changing the texture of the igb, but I can't found the offset.
The file is in ui\models/m_common_frame.igb

Update to this post, I found a dirty workaround to get a clean start screen :
remove m_main_left_frame.igb and m_common_frame.igb in ui/models folders, but the background will be completely transparent. this trick works fine with the original interface though.

Impressive! Now it has improved 100%! I already installed your update and started to enjoy. Thanks!

You're welcome^^
I tweaked a the hud to be similar to Remastered, there is again issues, but playable.
If you want to remove hud of npc without dialog, remove their hud file.
What is changed :
Hud with thinners health bar with transparency, deleted useless hud stuff in health bar, but with issues, no more background for interaction dialog, which make hard to see what you can pick and no more layer below the hero healthbar, also no more timer, credit icon because I'm too lazy to add them lol

It would be cool to do something like this for XML2

You mean in MUA? I was thinking of implementing the XML2 character selection system since I'm not a big fan of mannequins...

That would be cool. I'm not much of a fan of mannequins myself.
