System Shock 2 HUD Logs v2
November 2023
by ZylonBane

Requires SS2 NewDark patch v2.46 or higher.

This mod:

• Makes incoming emails display a HUD popup with the portrait of the sender, the sender's name, and the message subject.
• Displays the appropriate portrait, sender, and subject when cyber modules are given.
• With AUTO_LOGS true, will automatically play logs when picked up, and display a popup for them (this is the only way to display popups for found logs, due to limitations of the engine). Be aware that with this option enabled it is very easy to miss vital information from incoming emails because they will be interrupted by any logs you pick up. So very NOT recommended for first-time players.

Should be compatible with all fan missions/campaigns and non-English localizations. Note that localization of the cybermodules received message requires the string "FakeCookie" be added to OBJSHORT.STR (FakeCookie:"Cyber modules").

Two versions of the mod are provided:

• HUD Logs shows a HUD portrait and name/subject for incoming emails and cyber modules.
• HUD Logs Autoplay does the above and also automatically plays logs as they're picked up.

Good stuff, thanks! I'd be in favor of putting the base mod into SCP.
