Where are the textures for the HUD stored? I'm planning on maybe modifying them for my upcoming level.

Also, about the numbers on the HUD: do they have their own texture, or are they a font used in other places in DF?

In the textures.gob if you plan on changing the font color or the shield and health bars I can't help you there

Thanks. I'm not sure it's possible to change the numbers, but I'm sure I can find the health and sheild bars somewhere if I do some digging. Has anyone ever tried this before? Hopefully, it'll add a little interest to my level Smile

You can change the numbers too. They're just bitmaps so you can convert them and edit them or adjust the palette and convert them back.

Are these particular numbers only used in the HUD or elsewhere as well?

By the way, are the textures for the "main menu" thingy in the textures.gob too? That would be a good thing to customize . . .

I forget where they are. They're either FONT (LFD) or FNT (GOB) files. Menu fonts might be in one of the LFDs, probably not in DFBRIEF.LFD though.

I'll look for em later . . . do you know what else they modify, besides the numbers on the HUD?

There are different fonts for all the text in the game, apart from static text that never changes (IE: briefing text, UI buttons, textcrawl).

Good, that's what I was hoping, thanks.
