I found the original HUD to be a little too arcadish in regards to the colours and it was too cluttered to my taste. So I made this darker, less cluttered HUD-mod.
In V 1.3 I started modding the weapon stats for the sidearms.
The main reason being that I realized how much more challenging it is to draw your scope on a target
that is very close to you without the artificial crosshair aiding me.
I found I started using a unscoped sidearm more often if my primary was scoped.
The handguns were nerfed by GRIN and did'nt really represent their real life counter-parts.
Some may say that the ROE is now through the roof, but really, they aren't.
I have used my personal experience and skills (or lack there of) with my own 92FS and MK23 as a template.
If you dont like what I have done to the secondaries you may delete the WEAPONS-subdir inside this mod.
Now, if someone can make me a HK MarK23 (SOCOM) model with optional sound supressor I'd be a very happy puppy.
This mod is intended for Single-Player and COOP games.
Domination mode is untested and may contain bugs and issues that affect game balance. Use at your own risk.
How to install:
Extract the content to x:\GRAW install-dir\
Start the game like normal.
How to uninstall:
Delete the LOCAL-folder in your GRAW install-dir
i.e. c:\program files\ubisoft\ghost recon advanced warfighter\local

Thanks to Franze for calculating the 45 degree increments on the compass and feedback in general.
Thanks to Clx440 for explaining the basics in positioning the Crosscom and thanks for the MP chatbox-mod.
Thanks to DiGiTALY -TC- for his GR1-style blood-mod.

Just tried this and like what I see. though you really ought to put the crosshair back in... and change the multiplayer minimap's size and color.
Good stuff so far though.
Posted By kiba on 10/06/06 18:43:26
where the crosshair?? T_T

where's the crosshair?? T_T
Posted By Shadow on 11/06/06 09:49:32
The crosshairs have been removed and they ain't coming back. If you want them visible just delete the crosshair_xxxx.xml files.
Posted By C0.Jeryn on 13/06/06 01:18:27
Fair enough Shadow. How about the minimap color? I'd ask in the forums but don't know my isp email addy and can't register. If I were to want to bring the crosshairs back, but with the grey color to match the rest of the UI, how would I?
Posted By moogleii on 01/07/06 23:06:25
I like the lack of crosshairs. I'm not so much of a fan towards the lack of mission waypoints and ranges, though. I disabled markers1.xml though, and it works great to my liking. Good job.
Posted By kveldulv on 22/08/06 12:04:52
What is wrong with you kids. Do you not understand you do NOT have crosshairs in real life? Thats why they but iron sights/scopes on weapons... Kids...
Posted By Anonymous on 12/09/06 03:17:34
Thank god the crosshair is gone. It was damn annoying, I never used the damn things. The hud looks good too.
Posted By gc on 18/11/06 00:18:46
is this right? the filename says v1.2 but the version stated is 1.33
Posted By Rocky on 18/11/06 06:01:40
Correct version is now linked, sorry for that brief error!

Good mod, however, did not see the green square objective box, had to search the map for direction and uninstalling this mod by deleting the local folder also deletes all other mods installed.
