Summary
A handful of issues occur when turning on the “Use Latest HUD” Setting.
1: Slap Stamina
- Slap effect appearance (orange bar) isn’t applied to the current Stamina bar, and instead causes the old bar to appear on the top-left of the screen.
- To test this, the Slap effect can be achieved by:
- Breaking Slap Barrels
- Using Slap Berry / Slap Juice / Slap Splash / Super Slap Splash / Lawless Slap Jug / Lawless Slap Cannon
- Equipping Heisted Run ‘N’ Gun SMG / Lawless Twinfire Slap Shotgun
2: Control Prompts
- Creative-exclusive Control Prompts appear to be using the old styling.
- The new ones are extremely indented in a weird way (in BR as well), and don’t line up with the Message/Elim Feed, unlike the old ones.
3: Pump & Dump
- Equipping a Pump & Dump (SMG & Shotgun-hybrid weapon) causes the SMG ammo counter to appear in the middle of the screen, with the old appearance.
4: Consumables & Equipped Item Info
- Equipping any Consumable item with charges/uses (Shield Potions / Medkits / Throwable Launch Pads / Port-a-Forts) with the OLD HUD causes a huge gap to appear between the item icon and its counter, in the “Equipped Item Info” element.
- It has been bugged this way since sometime in Ch5S4 (2024), and I’m including this in here in hopes of finally getting it fixed :,)
5: Creative-exclusive HUD Info Box elements
- The Round Timer and AI Eliminations counter still:
- Uses the old Noto Sans font with old drop shadow values and font size
- Displays the icon in a circle instead of a stylized square
- Displays the icon on the left, instead of the right
- This is funny to me because all HUD Info elements except these two got updated all the way back in Season X (2019; 7 years ago).
5: Pickup Info Boxes
- Now these bad boys got updated in BR in Ch2S4 (2020; 6 years ago!), but that change was NEVER brought to Creative.
- Published UEFN Islands do however use the new appearance.
- I was hoping that turning the “Use Latest HUD” option on would FINALLY cause the new Pickup Boxes to appear, but it sadly doesn’t.
- Please, please, please update them.
