DESCRIPTION:   
  This mod changes standard SS2 ingame interface into an alternate version.
  It DOES NOT change any buttons' functions or menu locations.
  It only changes the GRAPHICS of the interface. 

  I aimed to create something more detailed and realistically looking than the original virtual-like interface. Hope it assimilates well in the atmosphere of the game.

INSTALLATION:
  1. Load with the ModManager.
  2. That's it! Enjoy!


COMPATABILITY:
  Shnup is fully compatible with any other mod that does not change the ingame interface (i.e. 90% of all mods out there).

DEVELOPMENT OF SHNUP:
Well, it took me approx. 20 hours to finish the work.
And most of the time it was very fun!

  To create the graphics for the Shnup I used some graphic elements from my favorite game S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
  Btw, I did NOT use any menus, buttons etc. from Stalker. So the interface is purely unique. I’ve put a lot of effort to finish this work and hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I do.
  The entire job was done with Photoshop CS2. No other programs were used. 

System Shock 2 (as long as SS1) really deserves to be taken good care of. Especially now, when game industry is in deep s...t.
Almost no more brilliant games And definitely no more System Shock.
So it is our responsibility to enhance the Games as much as possible.
 
Enjoy!

Thank you for your work Densai. I just put up the individual screenshots (instead of an archive). Makes it much easier for people to see what this is about.

I agree that this interface is designed for and really fits in postapo material like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. or Fallout. But SS2 is not postapo, this is sci-fi/cyberpunk maybe and although I love all those styles I see this as a mistake, it just doesn't fit in there. You know why? Because it of course is meant to be virtual-like. Because what Googles sees through his eyes is that virtual interface which IS virtual. He's surgically enhanced and pumped with implants that makes him see such things - virtual.

But this is just my point of view at this mod, I'm sure there are many who'd prefer this interface.

I agree. It’s great for S.T.A.L.K.E.R., but it's not sterile enough for SS2. The interface in SS2 is Goggle’s software. It doesn't make sense for it to look so dirty and ramshackle. The actual UI itself looks great, but it just doesn’t fit in with SS2 in my opinion.
