About this mod Author’s original text

BetterHudLite

Somewhat inspired by the BetterHud mod of old, by DekuDesu.

Ping me (thetimesweeper) on the ror2 modding discord or the enforcer discord ( if you have any issues/feedback.

Health Bar and Skills Moved to Center:

Config to disable either

(or both, which would make the mod literally do nothing, like why, but you can)

Health bar height and width customizable too!

Health Bar and Skills Movable Wherever:

  • use X and Y configs to move
  • use scale config to shrink
  • use bar height and width configs to shrink
  • badda bing badda boom you macguvyered yourself a racecar hud

Other options:

idk check config

Credits:

DestroyedClone - fixed skills panel

Known Issues:

  • I've accounted for the ExtendedLoadout mod a bit but it's still kinda janky
  • lot of cases untested. don't be shy letting me know

Plans:

  • ~~risk of options~~
  • move buffs to health bar (config)
  • move sprint and inv buttons (config)
  • move level below health bar to give skills more room,
  • and cause it's less important truthfully
  • this was unexpectedly annoying to do and make work with my health bar height config
  • Perhaps a little better compatibility with extendedloadout
  • or other mods with extra ui that I haven't tested at all like nemry or aatrox if that ever happens
  • This will never happen, hence naming this mod "lite" instead of "2":
  • More of the crazy custom features that the old BetterHud mod had, namely moving/hiding the other ui elements
  • Would like the cool little skill cooldowns around the crosshair thingys, little prettier more readable less intrusive and such,
  • would take a bit of work that I won't get around to but I'd love to see it
  • Played doom eternal and dang that shit's great

Calling back to DekuDesu's mods' readmes:

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
