HUD Maker Ultra Pro
A downloadable tool for Windows
A tool/plugin for RPG Maker MZ that allows for the creation of map and battle HUDs using an external, custom-built editor. Everything from text and pictures to gauges and faces is provided. Presets for conditions, text, and numbers are also hard-loaded and ready to be configured for RPG Maker projects.
This is the Pro version of HUD Maker Ultra. A paid version that provides additional functionality beyond the normal version of HUD Maker Ultra. If you're interested in giving the software a try before purchasing, be sure to check out the normal version here, available for free!
In addition to the features available in the normal version of HUD Maker Ultra, the Pro version also provides:
- Multi-HUD organization/swapping, allowing for mid-game management using plugin commands.
- The "component template" system that allows for custom component templates.
- The "Custom" component with the ability to replicate similar HUD patterns with parameter variety.
- The "Custom Collection", which automates a collection of templates based on a list.
- The "Attach Collection", attaching a template to game objects in the world.
- More animation options allowing for full control over how they're triggered and eased upon return.
- The "Add-on" system, allowing for configuration over the components' color filters, mouse events, and code extension.
- Additional inputs for dynamic numbers and text based upon dynamic lists and mathematical operations.

I just got the plugin, I'm loving it. I figured out how to use a picture click, but I can't figure out how to make the button show text before clicking on it? like hover text. thanks if anyone knows the solution.
excuse me? $40 for this? for anyone interested, you can get picture common events from visustella for 5%, it doesnt have as much functionality but it's 1/8 of this price
$40 for a plugin with 0 (zero) support from its developer to be precise.
man, too cheap, raise to 69 dollars or I don't buy
(just kidding, please leave current price)
too expensive
There's a free version you know...
i have a question about the option "repeating picture" , what does it do exactly ?
Hey, so I'm trying the free version. I'm trying out making a custom Battle HUD, but how do I disable the default one (actor images and bars)? Carrying on from that, can you make a custom battle menu on this or the paid version?
It seems like this may not be supported anymore, can anyone tell me if it's still worth getting at this date?
is this still being supported?
I'd like to get it but not sure without support
The last update was in 2021. A lot of people report not getting answers, even for well exposed requests.
That sucks alot. Thanks for letting me know!
Fatal bug. I wrote on Twitter. In person. Please answer
Sad that he has bailed. Id be buying this too but for $40 I do expect some sort of customer support.
WAs interested in this but i see this person dont respond to comments so the plugin is probably not updated or has support
anyone have a copy they're willing to give? im broke
I'm having an issue with the Picture Gauge. I finally got everything working and it falls when the enemy takes damage, unfortunately it doesn't sync up with the enemy's hp.
The gauge doesn't fall enough when the enemy has >50% health, once the enemy has exactly 50% health then the gauge is perfectly in sync, but <50% health it starts to become off again.
When an enemy with 20 HP hits 2 remaining HP, the gauge shows empty.
Is this plugin still being updated?
Does this or the free version work on Android?
The free version of HUD maker has a pretty basic text component, and so far as I can tell doesn't have multiline support (say, if you want a paragraph of text in a window). Does the paid version have that?
This might be a long-shot, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask. Do you think it would be possible down the line to add functionality to import HUD data from your HUD Maker MV plugin into HUD Maker Ultra Pro? I'm hoping to move a project that makes heavy use of your HUD Maker from MV into MZ, but the thought of recreating several hundred HUD components is admittedly pretty daunting.
How do I get an image to attach to a specific event?
UI in battle will be bugged if you updated the UI and open an old save.
It can be fixed by using the plugin command -> reset UI
Question before I buy this, anyone knoww if I can make the buttons clickable or hud to go OVER a message text? I plan to buy it next month anyways, but curious
Yes, HUDMaker has animations and events for hovering over buttons or clicking them. There is a lot you can do with this plugin, I use the PRO version to make custom menus. The free version will let you do a lot as well. You should check it out.
HECK yess thank you <3
Ah---I can make the button fully transparent, but Is there a way to make it clickable while a message is happening? I can only click it when the message is over, is there a code or something I can put in?
Did you find a way to get a button you can click or hover while a message is happening? I am hesitating to buy.
I think I ended up making the message box a picture instead but It's been so long I don't remember. I know I couldn't get it to work with hudmaker pro
Hello SRDude! I wanted to ask, if I'll buy the license, is it for one project or for as many as I want? Thanks.
Hi, this is a really good tool. I've been using the free version for a while and I was wondering if the pro one allows you to show status effects like the baseline hud cause so far I've had to configure one icon image for each effect which is kinda of a downside.
After a long time I used this tool again... I didn't used it, because I thought it wouldn't be compatible with android. Now I tested it (new project with only Ultra Base, HUD Maker Ultra & HUD Maker Ultra Pro) and it works for me / on my phone. ^^
I evented some titlescreens, even small menus but with this tool it's so much easier. It can be a little bit difficult, there are many features that the tool offers. So take your time, it's worth it. :)
The tool works well but it has several bugs that you will only find when you really start creating different screens and need several features that don't have. I used it in a project but ended up abandoning it due to the lack of basic features that should be present in the current version. You may not encounter these problems, but unfortunately I did.
can you use this to make custom menu choices on the main map screen? I want to make custom menu choices to do a custom battle system and NOT use rmmz's system.
Yes that's possible. You can add an "add-on" -> "on click" -> activate a common event or do a script-call.
Really useful plug-in, but work it for smartphone devices?
Yes
I paid 40$ for a tool that works well but doesn't have any after sales support. I will contact itch support to claim my refund. If you want to buy this tool, think about it, any problems or questions you have, you are on your own. I will have to redo everything I did in HUD Maker manually because I have a problem that directly affects my project.
Exactly my issue. It's like it was just abandoned after release.
Extremely irresponsible.
It is an excellent tool, there is no other like it. But without support it lost all shine, annoying little bugs and no one to fix.
Truly a shame.
Is the pro/paid version worth it? Are there bugs still or certain limitations I should know about before buying ?
Buy at own risk, developer is gone or "died" and no longer supports this tool. You can use it normally, but you may run into some limitation that harms your project.
Gauge Value:
return $gameParty.members()[0].currentExp() - $gameParty.members()[0].currentLevelExp();
Gauge Max:
return $gameParty.members()[0].nextLevelExp() - $gameParty.members()[0].currentLevelExp();
Thank you very much, it worked perfectly
I know this is odd for me to reply to a post you made 2 years ago but hopefully you will be able to help me, is there a way to setup the hud and add text numbers to it as well the numbers showing current xp with needed total xp?
(102/250) <-- example
Or how i can set the gauge to other members in the party?
Man, your plugins are awesome, I hope someday you make the MZ equivalent for Character Creator
My game will be made for Android only, can you confirm that it works correctly? Is 40USD too high an investment, or is there a refund if it doesn't work?
It works on android devices.
Thanks!
Dear SRDude, can you post a tutorial on Battle GUIs. So far I only see tutorial on maps. The only tutorial that is for battle is for MV only.
Dear SRDude, is the HUD Maker compatible with android builds? Because I can't run my game, it says that "nw is not defined" after compiling game to android. Can you please help me?
close "Auto reload hud data" will fix this
Thank you so much, will try this.
Can you confirm if it works correctly for android? I don't want to buy and regret it.
Hello,
I just purchased the pro version and I love it so far! Just had a few questions about a couple things, first is a title menu shown below. I was wondering how can I get the buttons to be clicked to start a new game/load/Options etc etc also how to go back to this screen if you leave the game.
The other question is a little more complicated. For my battle system all 5 of the characters have their own versions of attack/guard along with their class based skills. I was wondering how would you program those buttons? It would need to track whose turn it is. Any help is appreciated, have a good day.
I just bought this, I really love this tool it makes it so simple. I have one issue, not sure what I'm doing wrong. Or maybe I don't know if it's a feature.
I want to have an area that can be "Scrolled" down, because it has a lot of info in it. How would I go about doing this?
please come back, i want to buy this but with compatibility for android :(
How does picture gauge work? If I insert a picture, it appears weird on the screen :l
