Can you add an option so that we can customize our HUD colors in-game? Us CMDR's on Xbox are a little sick of everything being orange. Also so that PC users don't have to mess around with their files?
[Suggestions] In-game HUD color customization
- Thread starter ShinyDewott
- Start date
Given how often this has been requested, I think it must be very difficult for FD to do this. My guess, as a software engineer, is that all of their HUD artwork has been drawn in orange and that they think they can't fix it without redrawing all the artwork.
The PC HUD colors are a hack: The worst part is not having to edit configuration files; it's that all the HUD colors change and it becomes very hard to distinguish friend from foe on the radar. (For example, enemies might be blue and friends would be purple.)
Assuming that the all the original artwork is orange, now that FD has indicated that they are looking at fixing long-standing issues, I'll link to my previous possible software-only solution (using a hue filter, so there's no need to redraw the artwork), to make it easy for them to find:
[updated] I've tweaked my code, to better preserve variations of hue.

Seconded. Some HUD Colors DO Work just fine on PC And those should be in the in-game menu so people can pick more than the silly annoying Orange!
Here's another thread. It has been requested countless times for Fdev to add HUD Customization over the last 2 and half years and we still got no confirmation that it's coming.
