Okay, I have deiced to use some tags from CMT. My problem is that the ammo meter overlaps my energy-shield bar. What I want to do is move the ammo meter so it doesn't over lap the energy-shield bar. Is there any way to do this?

Open the weapon HUD interface, and manually change the coordinates of the meter. This may take a bit of guess and check, but that's how you'd change it. I'm sure there's a more efficient way to do this using photoshop to determine coordinates, but this method is not known to me.

Okay thanks, I fooled around with it awhile and got it in the center of the screen(that's bad for gameplay). I have tried to get it in the exact same spot as the original ammo meters on the left hand side. However after spending a good hour to get it there it still doesn't look good. Does anyone know the exact coordinates of the original ammo meters? Also I have one more question. Is there any way to change the actual ammo meter itself? Like from that CMT SPV2 ammo meter to halo 1 ammo meter?

There's a dropdown box for the anchor. Put the anchor in the upper right or left corner, which is where I'm assuming you are.

Also, is this a human weapon or covenant weapon?

This is the CMT human sniper rifle. I want to put the original halo 1 sniper ammo meter on it. Also I came up with another idea, lets say I use a different hud like;

That would also fix the overlapping problem too. However the installation directions weren't very specific on how to change it. Or I could rearrange the entire hud. Or I could just keep it in the left hand corner. So many options!
