[Pics] My Take On Ui And Hud Inprovements + Some Thoughts.

OK so as all of you know that the current UI for mods and weaponconfig is a pain in the &#!, if you have many mods.

that's why i did some photoshoping to show how the UI could look like and how it would speed mods management up.

bullet points explain my thoughts on the UI and some other aspects.

some parts of my UI were good suggestions posted in these forums, already. they were so good they needed to be in my UI aswell :P.

 

Mods managment page:

 

-filterable by  warframe, rifle, shotgun, pistol, melee, sentinals and all...

-sortable by name, fusion, rank, amount, rarity, recent type....

 (namesorted mods should be further sorted by fusionrank and so on... )

-searchfeld for Name AND effect.

-stack duplicates checkbox (only stacks duplicates with same fusionrank)

-stacked mods display amount at the bottom of the mod.

popup:

- popup for amount of mods you would like to use for fusion.

  (another thing thats annoying. give us the ability to press ENTER or/and SPACE to close popups!!!!!!)

- arrow and typebox to set the amount. and ability to LEFT RIGHT to adjust amount.

 

Modpage:

WarframeConfig page:

 

 

-possibility to fuse into installed mods

-possibility to drop mods between other mods

- statistics of equipped warframe

without,

with installed mods

and changes to statistics by fusion into installed mods.

-quick accesses to other warframe by clicking warframe buttom(see pic 3)

- installed/compatible mods would update accordingly

- as soon as a mod is clicked the Fusion part comes back up.

- "Buy more" opens warframe page of the market.

WeaponConfig page:

 

- mostly the same as for the warframe menu with one addition change:

- arrows near the equipped weapon switch to the other weapon classes. (Main weapon, Sidearm, melee)

 

Weapon-Fusion:

+1. Awesome idea. Definitely an improvement. Would love to see this ingame :)

 

This will also fix the problem for people with low resolution who can't see the mods description on the mods while in config page.

Wow, that's pretty cool, although you kind of forgot the fact the default resolution for UI is 1280x720px and it stays the same with higher resolution and shrinks a bit with lower (even the 800x600px use the default one, just scaled down).

 

And we can't forget about the main menu, which is 48pixels high, so without any padding, that leaves us with 1232x720px for all screen elements - in case we don't want to take advantage of higher resolution, which would require some adjusting.

 

Just sayin - did some research since Im preparing also something like this, but more complex and taking every UI sections into consideration.

Design wise) The location of some elements (buttons and titles) are complety off some reasonable grid. We use vertical and horizontal lines to prevent the UI looking so random... still, relatively good job.

The mod selling system could do with an overhaul.

I just sold nearly 60k worth of mods most of them common and it took maybe 30+ minutes.

 

Everytime you sell a mod it takes you back to the first page. Really annoying when you want to sell another mod from the same page.
