what version of the mod are you using? In v1.1.0 there is an option:

##################################### Player Guidance (SH3/4/5 modes) ####################################
PlayerGuidanceEnabled = False

by default it's disabled. Sounds like you're using a later version (like v1.0.0)

Awesome work, as usual.

the X isn't really a big deal. The icon still has a tooltip so if you hover the mouse over it you'll find out what it is. I like the X vice nothing shown. Making it turn a darker color would add too much complexity and work (not to mention making the .dds file bigger).

Can the XO button and Interactive Dialog window be moved slightly to the left of the Text box?

you're using a version of my mod that a) I didn't approve or give permission to use my code and b) doesn't look like was designed correctly. In short, a copy of my work.

Lumat,
For your question there has been already made a mod. Take a look into
the mod section.

He, for some reason, wants the objectives not to be shown either.

It's pretty trivial to remove all ability to see what you're supposed to be doing, but if you remove the yellow ! icon, would that also remove the objective updates as well?

Thank for your answer. I use the v1.1.0 and I've this option (PlayerGuidanceEnabled) to False in the TheDarkWraithUserOptions.py file.

But I've always this icon

Java's revenge,
this mod (Player Guidance Icons Removed v1.02 ?) doesn't work with the Multiple UI.
(Many artefacts appear on the screen)

ok. What mission were you running in this screenshot? I'd like to duplicate this so I can see what I did wrong or missed.

WTF, you told me to try this version(NewUIs_TDC_1_1_0_ByTheDarkWraith).

It is your work!

this screenshot http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...&postcount=229 looks different from my work. Anyways....

my photoshop skills are not the best so it takes me time to do things. Redid the .dds files for the officers and here's what I've come up with:

just the officers and order categories were redone. I made a real thin (1 pixel wide) border around the selected officer. For the order categories a gold colored icon is the currently selected one, grey is unavailable, and white is available. The icon will only turn gold colored is there is an associated order bar to go with it (like in this example). If I had clicked on the reports (the far right icon above the officers) then the page for system would show (no need to color the icon gold because it has no orders bar). If everyone likes this scheme then this is the pattern I'll carry over to the orders bar (the big bar above the order's categories which is currently bright white).

currently selected menu = gold
and active ability (as in Recharging Batteries or Standard Propulsion which are both white in that example, but should be a toggle) are gold too? or remain yellowish? or nothing?

They are changing to a toggle (along with some other items). This way when you interact with the crew they aren't confused anymore

For the Recharging batteries or standard propulsion, only one icon will show depending on which mode you have set. If it is available and being used (not damaged) it'll be gold, if it's available but not being used it'll be white, if it's not available (or damaged) it'll be grey.

Well, that all sounds good, but instead of gold perhaps you should do lime green instead? With a dark gray background and for active abilities just like a big spinning green X shape? Dunno why I just thought of that, but I think it would be hella sweet.
