Description Hi everyone! Do you use HUD Status Bars by TheNiceOne? Well, it's a great mod and it offers many possibilities to customize your HUD. Now TheNiceOne is not modding anymore, so I asked him to keep working on this mod, which has an huge, but still hidden power. He approved. This mod is an addon: this means that you need to download the original mod, install it, then install this one.

I'm working hard to improve this mod and I can offer you many new/improved features:  - Performance! HSBE will not harm your FPS as HSB, thanks to a new optimized code and few new tricks!  - Split the bars update across more frames to reduce stuttering (HSB was updating all bars in a single frame).  - Quick functions: little commands which do many common calculations. Perfect for inexpert players but also a big boost in performance!  - Half optimization: the full optimization (#) in HSB can work with few bars. This one is weaker, but can work with near all other bars.  - Manipulate bars at runtime. Create/change/destroy a bar from scripts! Ok, more useful for modders than for players.  - New values for the bar position: HUDbars2, HUDnoticeLeft, HUDnoticeBelow, ...  - New values to display the text: HUDtxtTime2, HUDtxtPercent1, HUDtxtValueOfMax2, HUDtxtDayOfWeek, HUDtxtMonth...  - New fields: hud_ref_2 and hud_tmp_2. Increase the status bars power!  - New fields: hud_color_half, hud_color_full, hud_color_low, hud_color_high... expand the gradual color system!  - New fields: hud_fade_in and hud_fade_out. Now bars can slowly fade in/out instead of instantly appearing/disappearing!  - New fields: hud_popup_in, hud_popup_out, hud_popup_dirin, hud_popup_dirout. Now bars can appear and disappear from the screen border like popups!  - New field: hud_blink! Now bars can blink, either with or without fade!  - Support ini from specific mods. You won't need to alter HUD Status Bars.ini anymore if you install UV3, DR6 or similar. Just put their in in the HSBE folder, and you're fine.  - Support ini for specific quests. This is a project called "QuestHUD", which you'll find more info in the official threads and in the user guide.
