A combination of Heritage UI, Hitman 2016 Menu and Music Replacement, Legacy Intros, and my own edits, aiming to make Hitman 3's UI and HUD look as close to Hitman 2016 as possible.

All objective icons have been rounded.
Selected menu tiles have a white outline around them instead of a bar at the bottom, and the drop shadow has been added back.
Some menu tiles now have barcodes on their right side when selected.
Added a divider line near the bottom of menus.
Added two menu and UI themes: one based on H2016 GOTY, and one based on the original H2016.
The target icon on the HUD, the one on the map, the intel icon, and the escape icon have been replaced with their respective ones from H2016.
Added the dotted square on the minimap for when you're trespassing. (It is a bit translucent, but I don't exactly know how to fix that.)

Replaced the menu tile thumbnails for some things (e.g. the career page, the load game button) with the ones from H2016.
Changed the illegal item/action icon to the one from H2016, and repositioned it to the corner of the interaction circle.
Removed the dot reticle shown when you're holding a gun but not aiming it.
Made subtitles have a transparent background by default, and with the transparency it had in H2016. (Because of the way I did this, the in-game subtitle background option does not change the opacity of the background, and setting it to 100% disables the background.)
(Off by default) Changed a bunch of the items' names to be more consistent with each other.
If you see anything in this changelog that you don't like, there's probably an option to change it or turn it off in the SMF mod config page.
Known issues Both themes:
Mission completion tiles in the statistics page do not have transparent backgrounds.
Difficulty tracker on the 2016-style destination tiles doesn't actually work.
Sidebars of large menu tiles do not have text on the side saying which destination the tile takes you to.
Banners that appear on some tiles when locked (e.g. smuggled item locations) should be black.
Some icons have backgrounds when they shouldn't (e.g. the Elusive Target timer, shown in the "Featured tab" images.)
Contract Lookup dialog still doesn't have the closing animation.
As a side effect of lowering the position of subtitles in-game, the subtitles in videos (e.g. mission briefing) are too low.
Subtitles sometimes still have a drop shadow when loading from a save.
GOTY theme:
Button prompts at the bottom of menus still have white text.
Player level badge is still white (but it looks fine because of its shadow.)
VRAM bar in the graphics settings is still white.
Menu background when you unlock a new mastery item needs to be changed to white.
If you notice anything else that looks out of place, feel free to let me know in the replies.
Credits Burn, The Witch, for making Heritage UI, granting me permission to modify it, and indirectly teaching me so much about modding Hitman. You can really learn a lot by reverse-engineering and modifying someone else's mod.
beneddyguitar, for making the Hitman 2016 Menu and Music mod, and PandoraAlisu for making it work with newer versions.
And all the people in Heritage UI's credits. I literally couldn't have done it without you.
Before you ask, I don't have to credit anyone for Legacy Intros, because that mod was also created by me.
More 2016 mods No Bullet Explosions - Removes the explosion effect that Hitman 2 added to all bullet impacts. Immersive Sound - Removes immersion-breaking sound effects of your choosing, and can change UI sounds to the H2016/H2 ones. No Poison Smoke - Removes colored smoke from poisoned food and drinks. Hitman 2016 Movement - Changes 47's animations to ones from H2016. Silent Cameras - Removes noises that security cameras make, and removes the glare effect that happens when a camera comes into view.
