User interface mods are mods made by the community to change the visual appearance of menus and dialogs in the game. These mods can change anything from the loadout pane to the credits screen, but most focus on your in-game HUD itself.

There are several UI mods made by the community. Their creation process, however, is not trivial. Read this article for more information on the modding process..
