Would the devs consider a similar official HUD overhaul in the future?

I'd keep the compass though, it's still useful sometimes...

Yes. HUD overhaul is being considered. Compass in on the bottom of your screen in Ekiso's HUD.

Would it be possible to get rid of the kill information on the top left corner? I don't think it is very useful and it destroys immersion.

The problematic thing is that the text spreads (chat as well) out as if it's a 4:3 screen, just squeezing it more would help a lot.

Also to add to the guide. Many players have noticed that with X-Fi hardware (as well os the X-Fi MB3 software) some maps have distorted reverb and EAX. This is due to a missing "Sounds.con" ...

1. The level should have this file (for example) "D:\SteamLibrary_Win10\steamapps\common\Battlefield 2\mods\aix2ex_mm\Levels\Dalian_plant\server.zip\Sounds.con". If it does not add it to the level "server.zip".

THIS FILE IS CONFIRMED *MISSING* IN MAPS THAT HAVE DISTORTED EAX.

The file contains ...

Code: [Select]

rem ------------------------------- Global Reverb ------------------------------
rem -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
sound.setReverb "common/sound/levelambients/Openlandscape.eax"
rem -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This file defines the EAX setup.

2. Make sure the all important "Openlandscape.eax" is in "D:\SteamLibrary_Win10\steamapps\common\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\Common_client.zip\Sound\LevelAmbients\". There is also "City.eax" for maps that have a more enclosed city environment.

Some have accused BF2/X-Fi/EAX being "bugged" when it comes to BF2 EAX. However this is not the case as I've seen this problem cleared up in multiple maps now using the above fix. Before, the reverb is distorted with sounds being heard right across the level. After the fix is applied this goes away and EAX is back with environmental reverb and sound occlusion.
