HUD help?

by Zergcow · in Game Design and Creative Issues · 09/12/2007 (6:57 pm) · 1 replies

I dont know if this is the right fourm but I was wanting to make a more traditional mmo style HUD for my virtual world. By traditional I mean you have a mouse on the screen and use "w,a,s,d" and right clicking the mouse to move around. left clicking and moving the mouse would move the camera but once in motion the camera resets to being behind you.

any sugesstions on how i can accomplish this? I am an artist more than anything and to be honest i am an idot when it comes to coding. I can do it but i need all kinds of books and resorces to debug it lol.

So basically i have this awsome HUD in the works with health bar and everything and it will have a menue button that will bring up otions and whatnot. simular to an mmo HUD. I just need to know how to code it :) any help would be great thanks.
