Description:
This is my first mod and it is just a glimpse of the Improved Health Bars mod of Keretus, while trying to fix an issue with that mod where quests were no longer displaying, I encountered a skill-related obstacle (I blame bethesda for using a non longer supported technology for his UI) therefore I settled for just making a visual change.
How to install (Description was also copied from Keretus): (if your are using the game pass version then paths and config file name are differente)
TODO:
How to mod: (This is a summary of my 4hrs travel learning to "mod")

How to install (Description was also copied from Keretus): (if your are using the game pass version then paths and config file name are differente)
- Extract the SegmentedHealthBar.ba2 file to your Fallout 76 Data folder (default: C:\Program Files (x86)\Bethesda.net Launcher\games\Fallout76\Data)
- Navigate to your Fallout 76 settings folder in "My Games" (default: %USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\Fallout 76)
- If this is your first mod, extract the optional "Fallout76Custom.ini" file to the current directory. Otherwise, append the name of the new archive, "SegmentedHealthBar.ba2", to the list, separated by a comma, like so:
[Archive]
sResourceArchive2List = SegmentedHealthBar.ba2
TODO:
Current version has a bug as I didnt only changed the user healtbar but also the enemies one and the current enemy bar is not being displayed properlyAdd the health percentage as Keretus did in his mod- Make it a compatible standalone script instead of an asset modification.
- Create another mod to display current percentage for the next level (This is 100% possible).
- Create another mod to display weight and caps below the health bar (This is 100% possible).
- Better "How to install"
- I have followed the copatibility mod of Bilbo164, this mod is not yet a stand alone script but was tested successfully with Compatible Show Health Redux using the following load order:
[Archive]
sResourceArchive2List=CompatibleShowHealthRedux.ba2,SegmentedHealthBar.ba2How to mod: (This is a summary of my 4hrs travel learning to "mod")
- This video is gold, it showed me how to decompile/compile the fallout 76 files (bae.exe and bakaFileTool.exe).
- After looking and reading I realized that the UI of Skyrim, Fallout 4 and Fallout 76 is made using the same technology so I found this mod listing his tools and realized I would need to use JPEXS.
- Bilbo164 has a very good section hin his mod Compatible Show Health Redux that explain how to make your mod compatible with standalone script mods.
Tools:
- bae.exe -> Decompile fallout 76 files
- bakaFileTool.exe -> Compile fallout 76 files
- JPEXS -> Manage .swf files (pain)
- Figma -> Edit .svg
My mods:
- Segmented Health Bar (first one, is a copy of Compatible Show Health Redux without the quest bug)
- Compatible Weight Indicator
