Doomguy’s Face, Big HUD - Yay or nay?

I prefer something like this.  Minimal HUD with some icons, original red text, and messages at the top.  The face is optional for me, and I have it here because Eschatology replaces the face and I wanted to see the replacement.  I don't remember the last time I shrunk the screen enough to show the status bar to be honest...

 

hey, that's a really good one. minimalist but still has the face and the weapon stats, which don't take up screen space as they're behind your gun. what add-on is that?

Lol it's not an addon. That's just one way to configure the HUD in K8vavoom ^_^

I used to play with the hud really small, but the more I play Doom the more classic I want things to be, so ever since I have been using the big grey bar. I also like changing the colors on the hud, gives it a nice feel, I always gotta see doomguys face.

1, but also 2. Widescreen takes on the classic status bar are a blessing, and more people should make patches for old/new PWADs with them.

How did you do that answer me already!

I'm still at the point where any different screen aspect ratio feels cursed to me, so I play with the normal hud unless the wad has it's own.
