All it does it add the color frames from the Enhanced Player Healthbar playerhudcomponents.gfx to the BetterHUD playerhudcomponents.gfx. Does not touch any other component or file
DOES NOT SUPPORT LARGE FONTS SORRY - It's quite literally double the workload for what's going to be an interim patch until a proper merge patch comes along by people more dedicated to this than me

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
