Not my cup of JawaJuice, personally, but I am sure a lot will find it useful.

Yeah, right now I'm using numbered upgrade icons, but if ever I wanted my HUD to look like a bag of Skittles I know where to come. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Hmm, yes, perhaps I should...

Think u can reverse them?
<span style='color:green'>Green </span>- Everything's cool; little sign of danger
<span style='color:yellow'>Yellow </span>- Things are heating up
<span style='color:red'>Red </span>- Apocalypse NOW!
Anyway, here's the 'traffic light' system: <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
<span style='color:red'>Red </span>- Stop (wasting your puny bullets)
<span style='color:yellow'>Yellow </span>- Get ready (to frag some Alien scum)
<span style='color:green'>Green </span>- Go (annihilate everything non-human in a 50-mile radius)

Can i have that jp spr??
nice stuff too, original idea and it works
Credit goes to g0opy for <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=19&t=68529' target='_blank'>the original sprites</a>. I only did the recoloring.
The main HUD was a massive hack. It combined elements from the HL HUD, a TFC HUD, a CS HUD, a CS:CZ HUD, and a little of my own work.
Many of the elements of the HUD were resized and/or moved, so you cannot install only the HUD. You will also need to use the included .txt files.
<b>If you have other customizations that use edited copies of the included .txt files, then you will need to make the changes manually.</b> <span style='font-size:8pt;line-height:100%'><i>(Instructions included in each .txt file)</span></i>
<u>About the Experience Gauge (640experience.spr)</u>
The Marine Experience gauge was edited from the default. I put in a nice smooth gradient, and removed the graduations. No changes were made on the Alien experience gauge.

Great release.
This is fun too.
Hence, it shall be so.
