Created by nclok1405
Download: SuperUI_for_SR2_v2.9.7z

NOTE: This mod is for the original release (2009) version of Saints Row 2. It probably won't work correctly with the upcoming Saints Row 2 re-release. (You'll likely get a warning dialog if you attempt to run SuperUI with the new SR2)


=== Description ===
SuperUI, formerly known as "nclok1405's Misc Menu Mod", enhances user interface of Saints Row 2 in many ways.
This mod contains the features previously available from "Pause Menu Tweaks", "Fast Cellphone", "Modern HUD", "Random Loading Screen Tips", and "Show Hidden Stats".

=== Features ===

==== General Features ====
* Cancel prompt removed from most menus except Image as Designed.
* Bonus Derby menu now remembers last derby you played, and Vehicle Select is skipped on the derbies that has only one selectable vehicle.
* Ending Credits can now be skipped with Escape key.
* The Activity Level Selector no longer queries which levels are available to the game; it *might* prevent freezes that happen if there are too many triggers.
* When an Occupational Diversion ends the game displays a score card, which shows how much money you earned and how long you played.
* Added an option to disable Fast Weapon Switching (Q key) in Control Options.
* Expanded many menu's maximum height. Many menus, such as Garage and Achievements, now show 13 items in one page instead of 9 items.

==== Features not enabled by default ====
* Added an option to auto-load the latest save when launching the game. This feature is not enabled by default. To enable it, open "vint_lib.lua" and change "SUI_AUTO_CONTINUE = false" to "SUI_AUTO_CONTINUE = true" and recreate the GotR patch.
* Inside "optional" folder there is a "music.xtbl" file. Placing this file to 1-MODDERS_-_PUT_YOUR_OWN_PERSONAL_MODS_HERE folder will mute the Pause Menu music.
* Added "SUI_GARAGE_HORZ_BARS" flag to vint_lib.lua. When set to false, the Garage menu's top and bottom horizontal bars and button hints will disappear and up to 15 vehicles are listed in one page.

==== Loading Screen ====
* Loading screen randomizes the image after you complete Corporate Meltdown mission.
* The loading screen shows a random hint.

==== HUD ====
* Health Bar is moved to bottom-right, like in Saints Row: The Third and IV.
* Various HUD elements will automatically fade out if there are no changes for a few seconds.
* Added HUD-related options to Display Settings. Changes you make here will not persist between reboots, so please edit vint_lib.lua if you want to make permanent changes.
* Play weapon select sound when switching a weapon from 1-8 keys or Mouse Wheel. This feature can be disabled from Audio Options.
* On-screen Vehicle Surfing Timer added.
* Cash HUD will flash in red when you are spending money, and green when money is increasing. (can be disabled with SUI_CASH_TINT_DOWN and SUI_CASH_TINT_UP flags in vint_lib.lua)
* Radio Station logo is now shown on HUD rather than text, except My Radio and Police/FBI which lack logos.
* Added an option to disable all of HUD at Display Settings.
Note, if you disable HUD then re-enable, you will need to open/close the map a few times to restore the HUD.
* Added an option to disable HUD messages at Display Settings.
* Added an option to disable all tutorial popups.
* Added an option to disable the shadows around the four-corners of the screen. (Internally called "vignette")
* You can override Subtitle font size in vint_lib.lua. (SUI_SUBTITLE_SIZE)
* You can change thousands separator (default ',') to a whitespace (' ') by changing "SUI_USE_SPACE_SEPARATOR" to true in vint_lib.lua. Note Stats and Stash messages are unaffected due to technical limitations.

==== Pause Menu ====
* Save/Load, Radio, and Options tabs are now combined to a new unified Options tab.
* You can target an already completed Chop Shop vehicle.
* Added save file count display to Save Game menu.
* Disabled Pause Menu ripple effect. Somewhat improves performance.
** Minor side-effect: When switching between Map and Pause Menus the camera temporarily zooms in and out.
* Added Achievements menu. This menu allows you to check the unlock status and progress of Single Player Achievements from Xbox 360 version of the game. Achievements of Co-op and competitive multiplayer modes are not included. The Soprano achievement is also missing because the game leaves no traces of it.
** Keep in mind that there is no popup for unlocking a new achievement, due to how this system works internally. You will need to periodically check the unlock status manually.
* Added "Stopwatch Test" tool to Display options. This tool can be used to test the game's internal timer speed.
To determine if you're affected by the "game speed too fast bug", follow these instructions:
1. Launch Saints Row 2 with SuperUI for SR2 mod installed.
2. Open the Display options menu.
3. Highlight "Stopwatch Test" then push Enter key. A dialog box for confirmation will appear.
4. Have a stopwatch ready near your hand (use a real life clock or your smartphone's stopwatch app)
5. Select "YES" (push your Enter key) on SR2. A 3-second countdown will appear.
6. When the 3-second countdown ends, start your stopwatch. A 10-second countdown will start in-game.
7. When the 10-second countdown ends, stop your stopwatch.
8. If your stopwatch isn't near 10 seconds, you're affected by the "game speed too fast bug".
If you're affected, either use "bcdedit /set useplatformclock true" from Administrator Command Prompt, or install Powertools.

* The game will automatically unpause itself when using a NPC Morph cheat. (Prevents black screen)
* Added "Cheat Shortcut Keys". You can bind a cheat to "Say" and "Team Say" keys to activate your favorite cheats without going to the Cellphone menu. To bind a cheat, highlight the desired cheat, then push your "Say" (Default: Y) or "Team Say" (Default: T) key. By using this, you can use up to two different cheats in Zombie Uprising. (Unfortunately, NPC Morph Cheats do not work in ZU...)
* On Phone Book only useful phone numbers (that spawns a vehicle) are listed by default. To display all contacts, highlight the Phone Book option on the main cellphone menu and push Spacebar.
** Note: In order to keep the list small enough to fit in 1 screen, Big Willy's Cab (8198415) is the only taxi service listed here. Eye for an Eye (5555966) is a one-time deal so it is not listed.

==== Nag Messages ====
* Disabled "Buy and change your clothes to increase your Style Rank" nag message.

** NOTE: A glitched clothing item "flasher coat with Morphs" (display name: "Flasher Coat") is disabled from Lua code side. This clothing item is not used by any NPCs and not sold in any stores except the crib store. This clothing item quickly crashed the game when previewed and unlike the other Flasher Coat it cannot be used for Flashing diversion.

* Added an ability to load "Mod Missions" (Custom missions without a start navpoint) from Newspaper Clipboard. Please read sui_mission_list.lua for more info. The following mod missions are included:
** "Evil Gat Clones" (mm_evilgat): Kill all evil Gat clones in Sea Roses.
** "Benchmark" (mm_benchmark_sr): This mission will display a predetermined scene at Rebadeaux for 30 seconds and give you performace information.
** "Triangulate" (mm_triangulate): Display player's coordinates. Push the Prev Radio key to show Y position, and push the Next Radio key to add all three position components to the objective list. If you have Powertools installed, pushing the Next Radio key will also record the coordinates in the debug log. Installing the logging version of Powertools is recommended.

==== Weapons Cache at Crib ====
* Added ammo store to Weapons Cache menu.
* Weapons Cache now shows the amount of ammo you currently have.
* Weapons Cache now displays price of the weapons you already own.
* You can now receive maximum of 50 free ammo (amount varies depending on game progress) from Weapons Cache for thrown weapons except Satchel Charge. This feature compensates the limitation of the game that all non-equipped thrown ammo disappear upon loading a saved game. To receive your free ammo, simply highlight a thrown weapon and press your Enter key. This feature does not apply to Satchel because the ammo count always go back to 5.
* Weapons Cache's equipped status is now much more accurate. Previously it sometimes shown no weapons are equipped or a wrong weapon was equipped.

* Added an option to return to main menu (without saving) from pause screen (Tab)
* Buying foods from the mall no longer mess up the HUD.

==== Main Menu ====
* Added Help menu. The help menu is extended to include more detail for a few Activities and Diversions.

==== Multiplayer ====
* Added a warning message if you open the multiplayer menu without loading single player mode first, to prevent naked character bug.
* Removed Spacebar, Shift, and Ctrl button tips from Server Browser because these do absolutely nothing on LAN.

=== Changelog ===
SuperUI for SR2 v2.9 (July 22, 2021)

* Removed the horizontal bars at the top and bottom of Crib Customization menu.

I'm sorry for double post but I've released v0.3.
It now contains improvements to Mission/Activity end screens such as Zombie Uprising final score display:

Check the first post for download.

EDIT August 8, 2018:
v0.6 released. Now contains enhancements to Newspaper Clipboard such as Jane's newscast transcripts as well as Troy and Dex's Wiretaps.
Despite unused in the vanilla game they are translated to other languages. An example screenshot here is Japanese:

I'm sorry for triple post, but I have an important announcement regarding this mod.
nclok1405's Misc Menu Mod has been renamed to SuperUI and it now merges "Pause Menu Tweaks", "Fast Cellphone", "Modern HUD", and "Random Loading Screen Tips" mods.
This merge was required to implement a few new features, such as "Cheat Shortcut Keys" which allow you to bind cheats to Chat and Team Chat keys. (Affected city_load.lua, cellphone.lua, hud.lua, and vint_lib.lua due to global variables being necessary)
I hope you enjoy this mod!

EDIT November 10, 2018:
SuperUI v1.1 released. Now the HUD shows radio station's logos rather than text (except My Radio and Police/FBI):

Sorry for quad post but I released SuperUI v1.6.
SuperUI now has an ability to load a Mod Mission without adding a starting navpoint.

You can select a mission from a Newspaper Clipboard's "MODS" tab. Each mission can have its own description.

An example mission "Evil Gat Clones" is included. It's very short but it works.

Whoa, a fully functional mission loader! I've been looking forward to it for so many years, seriously, it's like a dream come true. ^^
I'll try it out as soon as I finish my supper, it already sounds delightful, though. I've been keeping track of your Saints Row 2 mods for a while now and, to be honest, I'm truly impressed by what you've managed to achieve over the last few months, I didn't think it's even possible to come up with any further improvements to the code at this point. I admire your work, keep it up! It makes me want to start the game from the very beginning once again like it's a whole new experience. UwU
 
SuperUI v1.7 released.

New Feature 1: Achievements! Most achievements except for Soprano, Co-op and Competitive Multiplayer are included.

New Feature 2: You can now disable the shadows seen on four-corners of the screen.

I have two questions for you,
Is this mod compatible with GoTR's Xbox 360 prompts?
and,
With your permission, can I add this mod to the next release of my Saints Row 1 HQ Texture Pack? I'll make sure you're name is mentioned in my credits.

I think SuperUI is still compatible with 360 Button Prompts mod, however you'll have to edit vint_lib.lua using a text editor and set the "SUI_PLATFORM" variable to "XBOX360".

Include SuperUI to HQ Texture Pack? YES! You can do that! Awesome!
 
Thank you!
