This mod changes the HUD of the game as you change through the various Eras.

It was designed for Fall from Heaven, but these particular interfaces seemed fitting for Vanilla, so I packaged them up to offer to the community.

Discussion Thread is Located Here (I am not sure how often I will check this particular thread, but I will try to keep an eye on it).


The Vanilla version does differ from my FfH mod in that I have gone through and tweaked the precise location and size of each component individually. This greatly improves how they appear in-game, and it won't be long till I make the same changes on the FfH version, but for now... you guys actually get the better version ;)

Ancient (Starting) Screen:

Classical & Medievil Screen:

Rennaisance & Industrial Screen:

For Modern Era you get the normal Civ screen

Future Screen:

I'm kinda surprised I hadn't included The Order screen with this...

Anyway, watch the thread in FfH mostly. The code part doesn't need to be changed too much, but I have cleaned up all of my UIs quite a bit, and added a bit fo transparency to each of them which makes it easier on the eyes.

However, the ones which I made were really meant to be "teasers" from a code-guy to get the art-guys on the forum attracted to designing something that looks better :)

Changing which UI you use is remarkably simple since I kept the file names the same, and only the folder name changes.
 
i like the borders on the pre-modern HUDs but yeah the backgrounds are a bit too busy
the second one is good for ancient and the border of the third one evokes renaissance-ness
i get the feeling that a classical HUD should have greco-roman pillar thingies as borders; to me it feels essential... i cant imagine being happy with anything else tbh :p
