You should be able to play FEAR higher than that. My system has a weaker graphics card and about the same CPU, I can run it 800x600 or if I push it 1024x786.

Anyway, I'm still putzing about with the ultra-minimalist UI. Given that I can move the command buttons, suggestions on where to put them? The quadrent map has movement options, but I haven't been able to get them to work.

So the status display at the top, the sector list, the quadrent list, and the small buttons at the top of each panel stay where they are.

/me disengages lurking device

I've been lurking heavily the past two days on this thread and others. I figure I'll let the more savvy players poke at it first and see what wiggles.

I am not optimistic ATT.

Move the command buttons to the right - 3 columns of 15 or so sounds about right. Group them by Ship-based, planet-based and misc. Scrap the submenus. Remove the sector(!) view from across the bottom because it's not the best place for it.

I can only move the buttons as is, I can't change their contents. Can't move the sector or quadrent view either (there are options to move the quadrent view, but they don't seem to work)

Moving buttons to the right..

EDIT: Ok, hudsettings.txt isn't fully implimented, this idea won't work. The order buttons can only be moved vertically about 50 pixels, and then they stop.
