Minimap & UI Settings

You can customise how your HUD, minimap, speedometer and CAD overlays appear using:

/uisettings

Changes are applied straight away and are saved to your PC, so you can adjust everything until it feels right for you. HUD Layout

At the top of the menu, you can control the general HUD appearance.

You can change things such as:

  • Status Style — choose between Bars + Boxes, Boxes, or Rings
  • Status Layout — display your statuses underneath the minimap or in a column beside it
  • Stamina Bar — place it at the bottom of the screen or with your other statuses
  • Armour Style — choose whether armour displays as a bar or box

You can also use Show every element while editing to make all HUD elements visible, which makes positioning everything much easier.

If you mess something up, use Reset to restore the default layout.

Minimap Settings

The Minimap section controls where and how your minimap is displayed.

Location You can choose:

  • Above Map
  • Block
  • Inside Map

The Inside Map option makes the radar larger and places the street name and postal information over the edges of the minimap.

Shape You can also choose between:

  • Square
  • Circle

The circular minimap is experimental and may require the correct radar mask to work properly.

Speedometer

The speedometer can also be customised. You can change:

  • Position — Beside Map or Bottom Right
  • Fuel Gauge — Bar or Arc
  • Speed Limit Sign — On or Off
  • Size — use the slider to make the speedometer larger or smaller

This is useful if the default position clashes with your minimap or other HUD elements.

General HUD Scale

Under General, you can adjust the overall HUD Scale.

Move the slider left or right to make the interface smaller or larger.

This is especially useful if you play on a different resolution or want more screen space.

Moving & Resizing the Minimap Frame

The Minimap Frame section gives you much more control over the exact placement of the map. You can adjust:

  • Move Right — moves the frame horizontally
  • Move Up — moves the frame vertically
  • Width — changes how wide the frame is
  • Height — changes how tall the frame is

If you are trying to line the frame up perfectly with the radar, enable Show Frame Outline.

This displays the frame boundaries so you can see exactly what you are moving or resizing.

Once everything is lined up, you can turn the outline back off.

CAD Overlays

The UI Settings menu also lets you reposition certain CAD-related overlays.

These include:

  • Radio Speakers
  • Unit Status
  • Panic Alert

These elements can be moved directly on your screen using their handles.

For example, the Radio Speakers handle marks the bottom edge of the speaker list, with active speakers stacking above it.
