M Dynamic and simple HUD - FPS friendly

Description
simpleHUD is a clean, lightweight, and customizable HUD for Garry's Mod, built with performance in mind.

This is my first addon — originally made for personal use on a low-end PC with 8GB RAM. I decided to share it in case others want a minimal HUD that activates only when needed and uses almost no resources.

------

🧩 Features

- Only shows when holding a key (default: E)
- Smooth camera movement
- Animated transitions
- Health, armor, stims, armor plates, clock, ammo, and heart icon
- Optional healing and armor sound feedback
- Optional background blur
- Customizable icon positioning
- Configurable activation key
- Customizable hold duration
- Fully client-side and won’t conflict with gamemode HUDs

------

⚙️ Configuration

All configuration options are located under:

Spawnmenu > Utilities > M addons > M Dynamic and simple HUD

------

🧪 Compatibility

For the best experience, use simpleHUD together with:

- MW Stim [VManip]
- Warzone™ Armor System
- S.M.A.R.T | An Intelligent Bracelet

⚠️ By combining these addons and adjusting their configurations, you can achieve the setup shown in the preview image.

------

🙏 Special Thanks

Thanks to Perfopus, a powerful tool that makes it easy to test and monitor performance impact during testing.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE v1.1

Change: Configuration options are now located in Spawnmenu > Utilities > M addons > M Dynamic and simple HUD

Added: New sounds
Added: Nostalgic sound when health and armor are full
Added: Nostalgic intro

Fixed: Having more than 100 armor no longer breaks the armor bar

DYNAMIC HUD:

You can now enable an option for the HUD to automatically activate when taking damage or healing

-----------------------------------------------------------------

And thanks for checking out simpleHUD! If you find any bugs, or have suggestions, feel free to leave a comment!.

Oh, my bad—I thought you commented on M Hand. I'm going to update that one now. But I want to keep improving this addon too
M  [author] 30 May @ 8:20am 
I'm sorry to hear that. I play without a HUD myself. If you check the other mods I've uploaded, they're aimed at improving that kind of experience. Little by little, I'll be adding small updates—for example, I'm about to upload a new feature that's going to be very useful.

I wish this replaced the original hud, I got this entirely to do that and yet the HL2 hud is still there, and I don't wanna disable draw hud cause that gets rid of the weapon selector and the crosshair

Haha, it's all good, I didn't help you because it was better for you to learn how to solve it on your own

can you make it so that if max armor goes over 100, the bar adjusts accordingly? It seems to cap out at 100, but I have my max armor set to 150.
