Ah, no, that part was in reply to Cosmophase, although, frankly, I was taking their post a little too literally.

What makes you think I donât know this already? So youâve never changed your mind about anything? The thing is, I donât exactly buy that either, Iâm not sure how adding basic sights would turn the game into CoD but the point is that they didnât do it. What is this nonsense that if we donât like something we go mod it into the game then expect other people to respect your decision to use crutches, all the while complaining how the game is too easy. But fine, Iâm not extremely against that particular thing, I can live with it, itâs very minor and some people canât stand iron sights so adding a basic optic can greatly enhance their experience. How about the ones that can zoom? Yes I think they suck, especially at the difficulty most of the people reading this thread play, but that is not a valid argument. I think they suck, another guy might not think so and can use it effectively at lower difficulties. How about the rest of the mods?
What can possibly justify using sh*t that essentially lets you see through walls? What can justify you knowing when certain elites spawn? Is it really the case that every time you get caught unaware by a trapper it was exclusively because of audio issues? If not, what gives you the right to have an additional visual indicator while you have your back turned? That visual indicator will work regardless if that time the audio played correctly or not. I do not require you to answer these questions, just brood upon them.
Edit: And no, I donât mean that you specifically use the mentioned mods. I canât know that.

You seem to have divided attention where you need one of your ear muffs from your headset off, because you replied while leaving out the part that already addressed this.
I donât expect you to read every last thing I type, but at least read the same sentence you reply to.
With such a small statistic (0.36% of users are using mods for legit purposes) I didnât know if I qualified under legitimate use.
fatshark only cares if the mod itself actively hurts their bottom line or majorly effect gameplay for others.
I know youâre just trolling now (well since before)âŚbut here ya go anyways.
Usage. Hyperbole is often used for emphasis or effect. In casual speech, it functions as an intensifier: saying âthe bag weighed a tonâ simply means that the bag was extremely heavy. The rhetorical device may be used for serious or ironic or comic effects.
If Iâm being honest, if youâre playing distracted or whatever because you have food on the stove, baby crying or whatever, maybe consider not playing in a pug or play pausable single player game. To be clear I donât consider this a legitimate use.
Hearing issues are legit use, thereâs at least 1 other deaf user here and Iâm genuinely happy they get to use the accessibility mod the proper way.

and here i am trying to âfalloutâ my HUD to the lowest common denominator , basic health toughness and my ult and lowest opacity so my oled doesnt burn in eventually.
âcustom hudâ provides some elements(discontinued sadly and ridden with some bugs now) but all in all there´s still to much unimmersive clutter for my taste.
shame fatshark doesnt provide the basic option to turn things âoffâ
speaking of spidey sense, saw it once, gave me a seizure figuratively and made me wonder how in the world does this not distract more than it provides.
then again, i got no problem with sound queues, rarely the silent trapper 2cm behind me, but in that scenario, no disco-ball would warn me efficiently about that either 
Ugh I gotta send my OLED for burn-in replacement, thanks for reminder and mod tweaks/idea: More OLED friendly UIâŚ
What your issues with custom hud? Iâm still using it with NumericUI and havenât noticed any? Maybe I can be of service here.
P.S. LOL, Dammit people, the word is cues dammit, not queues, dammit!

i will give penanceâŚ
to be fair, i understood the problem of the sound being hung up in a queue and due to a large amount of audio bits not getting played in sequence or at all(sometimes all combined in a gibberish âbrrrrttzzzzkkkâ
aka. the bomber conga line or 12 ragers praising my sweet death in canon.
anywaysâŚ
welcome for the reminder, if said replacement offers you a refund, i got myself a
corsair xeneon 27qhd240
and, knock on wood, haven´t seen any issues after roughly 1 1/2 years.
usual game being darktide with the odd fallout new vegas and 4 (with modded visors mind you, meaning part of the screen is a static helmet inlay)
every 8 hours he reminds me of pixel refreshing which i never skipped.
as for the issues:
-
i´d like only the basics of my team displayed on the left without symbols/portrait/bars etc.
all i care about and gets me to act is team mate almost dead = heal or ammo red = shove
some gunpowder up his backdoor.
so 2 numbers about health(red)ammo(blue) would totally suffice. -
turn off the ugly, right below my crosshair, stamina bar. technically i don´t need it at all, get a
good feel of when it drained.
and to be honest if i f´up it´d been right in my face and i didn´t react upon it anyways.
up until recently the mod did allow for turning off certain elements, but nexusmods reports
confirm a)resetting frequently and b)being prone to crash.so all i used it for right now was opacity.
that leads me toâŚ
-
opacity for crosshair down at least 50%, barely visible would still be more than enough.
i play my singleplayer shooters exclusively without and use iron sights when available for
immersions sake.
will try my monitor build in crosshair, but to my knowledge i can´t turn opacity down there
either -
place the symbol of my ult to the far left and get to tweak the opacity as well.
on the bright side, fatshark added an option to deactivate hitmarkes, i loathe those things.
they scream console
considering i´m writing from work after a rough night and lack of sleep, that´d be the most âgnawingâ points i got with the UI right now 
I see that your advice comes from a good place; itâs just not what I was looking for, really. I just wanted to set things straight so that I know where you stand on this matter. I do appreciate that everybody is different and has their opinions. I havenât really been trying to troll or start trouble, but our talks have gone not so positively, not as I wished. Iâm beginning to think that the problem lies perhaps not in the topic but rather in how we communicate about it here. Thanks for the chat; youâve got me thinking.
Are you also using HUD Tweaker? Can get some crashes while editing but perfectly stable after that.

Wait, what? Iâve never heard of such a thing⌠Is that even allowed on the Nexus, because, I mean Jesus⌠I think the weapon customization mod is fun, but something like this feels âgrossâ for lack of a better term.

thx for the tipp, much appreciated.
in fact i havent tried it out yet, mainly to the âcan crashâ part but if its restricted to the configuration part iâll definately give it a shot

Some people, inluding me, donât seek difficulty increase with getting outspecialed out of nowhere by silent trappers and bursters. Iâd rather fight more hoards, elites, bosses, new types of specialls, then missing sounds and broken movement.

Important thing is, that sound cues are actually better then Spidey Sense. Visual side of things is allready heavy loaded in vermintide, there is a lot of stuff that needs to be tracked, and fast at that.
Even though I have this mod, I hear specials first 90% of times, dodgeing trappers and dogs by sound alone in horde.
If only those cues worked everytimes, I wouldnât mind dropping the mod.

Make sure you are in the psykhanium (or a mission lol) to edit the mission hud. Make sure you are in the hub to edit the hub hud.
If you just want to hide stuff look for the âvisibilityâ option in each component. I can usually remember my name, that was the first to go.

Thatâs correct. Spidey sense gives you a visual cue because the sound engine seems overwhelmed with playing all sound cues. It doesnât give you any extra knowledge, just what you get if the sound works as it should.
It helped me a bit, but I deactivated it because thereâs a lot going on visually anyway.

Iâm really curious now.
@pirx and @DiamondNova , what are your software and hardware components? Windows Sound settings like in the old Control Panel Sound applet?
There are also very good free options like HeSuVi.
On-board sound? USB?
Does your headset come with a virtual surround (HRTF, 5.1/7.1) component? Is properly configured? Is it even installed? Logitech for instance now licenses from Sonyâs DTS and some models include licenses to use DTS Sound Unbound. Even many motherboards include licenses, some âlesserâ versions of DTS.
Are you using ânewerâ Win Spatial Sound instead? On? Which?
Windows Sonic is built-in, DTS has a 2 week trial (Dolby too, but I found DTS better).
And lastly whatâs the in-game speaker config, no â7.1â now, but 5.1 is there.
Iâd wager a lot of ppl out there have plain old 2.0 stereo across the board even when they donât need to or out of date SW/FW.
