Description
**Confirmed working with Shadow of Kerensky

Introducing "Steam Deck HUD Scale" from Meh Technology - the must-have mod for Battletech enthusiasts playing on the Steam Deck. With Steam Deck HUD Scale, you can scale up your HUD for better readability, no matter where you play.

Specifically designed for the Steam Deck, Steam Deck HUD Scale ensures that your HUD remains clear and legible on the device's small screen. But that's not all - Steam Deck HUD Scale works great on PC too, making it the ultimate solution for Battletech gamers who want a personalized, immersive gaming experience.

Upgrade to Steam Deck HUD Scale today and take your Battletech gaming experience to the next level. With Steam Deck HUD Scale, you can enjoy a comfortable and immersive gameplay experience, without having to strain your eyes to read small text. Whether you're playing on the Steam Deck or PC, Steam Deck HUD Scale ensures that your HUD remains clear and legible, so you can focus on what matters most - the action-packed gameplay.




Larger HUD elements intended for Steam Deck but also works quite well on desktop.

Compatible with all YAML mods i'm aware of.
Compatible with custom reticle mods that only change out the texture. (All of mine work, I can't readily confirm any others currently). The one shown is "Minimalist Chevron V2"


Changes the size of:
*Weapon list (1.4x)
*Target paper doll (1.2x)
*Own paper doll (1.2x and moved in from left)
*Lance Status Widget (1.4x)
*Objective panel (1.2x)

***I wouldn't use this with my "LargerLanceText" mod or my "LargerWeaponText" mod. This just changes the scale of these elements where those mods change the format of the text. THIS WILL NOT SHOW CONFLICT IN THE MOD SELECTOR FOR THESE TWO MODS!
"LargerWeaponText" was not compatible with YAML Weapon so I made this one that would work with the YAML mods.

Yeah, i think a few other hud mods suffered it after the update. It's an odd one as i agree, you're just resizing stuff. I was careful that this mod was the only one enabled on my deck.

Interesting. All this mod is doing is applying a scale to each element. It shouldn't be affecting the text or color itself. Will have to look into it further.

This mod seems to make the text black for mission obective counters (such as kill counters in warzone). Made sure this was the only mod active and issue persisted. Its a minor issue. Just in case anyone else is seeing it. Mod probably needs tweaking.

Gotta have some other hud mod or scale mod affecting something. This still works fine on my deck.

All the stuff when I use it on my steam deck is too big, also the damn paper doll has been moved to the right for reason.

if you're not using YAML then you can use my "larger weapon text" mod. It makes the text larger but not the whole box so its easier to read but YAML messes with the weapon text so its not compatible with it if you are.

i only want to scale lower right HUD can i do that?
BloodshedRomance  [author] 10 Sep, 2023 @ 2:45am 
you can download the MW5 editor, go into the hud asset and then move whatever you want, wherever you want and scale it how you like. Then publish the mod. Thats about the only way to do it.
