Description
UHUD is a recreating of NFSMW 2005's UI from scratch using mostly vector materials, with original texture proportions to help keep the same look.
Images/Textures with photographic-like details are most likely AI upscaled otherwise.
I have a few examples down below.
And thank you for your attention.

I can see the meter placements bothering anyone if they seem off center or the like. But while I can control the image itself, the game made itself clear that some things are off a little thanks to the way it lays out those images for the hud. I suppose I'll remove the mipmaps and make them sharp again. But note that I added them in the first place to help from the font from becoming too jaggie or alias'd at lower res's (like 720p)

Yeah I can't argue with that, the closer to vanilla the better, I'm glad your intentions are to be as true the original as possible. Overall great work though, great job with the maps, must have been a heavy task. Again, the mod is so close to perfection. Thanks for listening to my criticisms.

Yeah I think a middle ground between the previous and current versions for the icons and NOS/speedbreaker/heat would be good then, I think the thickness of the NOS/S/H bars highlight the imperfections in the shape of them, if you know what I mean, how they don't align perfectly with the circle, but that won't be an issue if you dial them back a bit. Are you considering reverting the font back to its original sharpness? It just looks better sharper, it looks more HD, which is the aim of the mod after all

And the menu splatters, it's likely that I could go back and fill those tiny holes in from being too distracting, but I will not be changing their shape altogether since making them look closer to vanilla was my intention.
