Move street/area names on the hud

Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello!

With the change to the hud, I have a couple of suggestions that I would like to see implemented. 

 

1) The area name and the street names should be moved to above the GPS like it previously was before. The names being on the top of the screen (and also really small text for those of us with sight issues) is quite annoying for quite a few situations, specifically when flying and trying to do callouts for PD/SD.

 

2) Increase the size of the text or create a setting for it as it currently is really hard to see and read when flying or driving and doing callouts.

 

This is how it looks right now while flying. We have to focus on the car being driving below us and then look away just to see what the street name is, all while doing callouts on where the car is and what way they're going.

I think there should be introduced hud settings like with the chat.

With things such as font, font size, font color

Overall +1 to the main post

The point of it being at the top is that you see which direction are going while heading that way.
If it's at the bottom, you're looking down the bottom of your screen so you don't see as much what is ahead of you.

@Dakota14 If you are concerned about visibility while in a helicopter, switch the beige desert hue for a grey metropolitan one. It would be easier on your eyeballs as everything looks better in the city, Baron.

The top of the screen lets you see what's in front of you in a car with your peripheral vision while quickly looking up at the compass/road names. I think it being at the top is perfect.

 

I do agree however the text could be bigger though.

 

Also Bala does have a point, you've got a desert backdrop which isn't good with the white text.

It may also be valuable to have a setting to select personal preference in font colour as white does blend in to most backgrounds in the county. In the city not so much, so you could also maybe potentially try and move your RP back down south and see how you get on.

Uhhhhh hhhuuuuhhh suuuuuuureee

 

But in all actuality, having the street names and such be where they used to be would help with doing callouts. And if that's not an option, being able to make the text larger would be the only other solution. I personally don't have great eyesight and reading those small of words is quite difficult at times.
