Carturs UI HUD

Cartur's UI — HUD

Just want the HUD from before? Set Panels / newPanels to false in the config and

restart. That keeps the bars, food diamonds, guardian power and edit mode, plus the

inventory, hotbar and equipment panel (they hold the new equipment, quick and shield slots),

and puts every other screen back to vanilla. The slots stay on either way: turning them off

would drop whatever is in them on the ground.

Read before installing:

• Remove Equipment and Quick Slots and Shield Me Bruh first. Their slots are built in

now. If either is still installed, BepInEx skips this mod and starts the game without it.

• Uninstalling drops what is in the equipment, quick and shield slots on the ground where

you log in (the same as removing Equipment and Quick Slots). Take your gear off first, or

pick it back up.

• Made for GUI scale 100 %. Above about 130 % the crafting and equipment panels overlap.
• Not every screen is reskinned yet — see the list below.

What it does

A hand-drawn wood-and-bronze interface: Norse knotwork boards behind the windows, bronze

frames on the bars and food, and every piece placed and sized by you.

• HUD — health, stamina, eitr and adrenaline bars in bronze frames that grow with your

maximum; three food diamonds with countdowns; the guardian power with Ready or cooldown.

• Inventory — bag, hotbar and an equipment panel with your character live in it, plus

equipment, quick (Z / V / B) and shield slots. The quick slots are the food diamonds.

• Crafting, chests, the trader — on painted boards, controls seated on their plates.
• Build menu, skills, compendium, popups, pause and settings menus, loading and sleep

screens — on the same boards.

• Epic Loot's enchanting table and trader windows, when Epic Loot is installed — one

board per enchanting tab.

• Loading HD Valheim Textures without freezing. With HD Valheim Textures installed, its

textures load during the logo screen with a progress bar, instead of the game hanging for

half a minute or more on the main menu.

• A hover effect on every button, and a bronze highlight on the selected row.

Still on vanilla art: the large map and minimap frames, the connecting screen, and some

small dialogs. Controllers work, but the mod is made and tested with mouse and keyboard.

Arranging it

Turn on editMode in the config — a tick box in game with

ConfigurationManager,

or edit the file directly. It applies immediately, no restart.

| | |

|---|---|

| drag | move a piece |

| wheel | size it |

| shift + wheel | a bar's length |

| ctrl + wheel | how far the frame's ornaments stand off the fill |

| ctrl + drag | nudge the frame against the fill |

Your input is held while edit mode is on, so a drag doesn't swing your axe. Turn it off when

you're done; the layout saves either way. resetLayout puts every piece back.

Settings

BepInEx/config/com.jekkle.valheim.carturuihud.cfg.

| Setting | Default | What it does |

| --- | --- | --- |

| Panels / newPanels | true | Off: HUD, slots, inventory, hotbar and equipment panel only. Restart. |

| Layout / editMode | false | Arrange the pieces — see above. |

| Layout / resetLayout | false | Tick to put every piece back. |

| Art / darkMode | false | Keep vanilla's dimmed panel material. |

Compatibility

Declared incompatible, so BepInEx skips this mod if one of these is in the profile:

Auga, AugaLite, Equipment and Quick Slots, Shield Me Bruh.

Works alongside Epic Loot, Jotunn, BetterArchery (its quiver sits in three ammo

cells of the equipment panel), HD Valheim Textures and Cartur's Waste Management

(its trash can and sort button sit in the inventory's side column). Any other mod that

redraws the same windows will fight it.

Install
