to put the damage numbers my char took right o his head?
This is so annoying that everytime i try to check how much damage I took on that hit but by the time i put my eyes on my Char Icon the number already faded out...And I dont like the combat message window...

As I know cosmos only alters interface, I'm not sure if this goes into a interface issue. Thus I would like to know the answer from you exprienced people.

Thank you in advance

We do not "know" anything about your character (or the 3D world at all) so... it would be possible, but only in a klutzy way.

Well what I meant is this : because we do not know where the "head" of the avatar is, and because we can only approximate it with regards to different zoom factors, we can't really put any numbers there.

What about a "being hit" window, moveable to anywhere on the screen, that just displays the numerical hit value (ie the same that is displayed on your avatar, but smaller font size (user scaleable perhaps?))? Maybe have one window for "being hit" [red font] and another for "hits" [green font]. I wouldn't think it would be too difficult. *shrug

Hmm... I don't see much point in that... but perhaps you could ask the CombatStats guy if he wants to add it in? :)

Well, I was thinking on trying to eliminate the combat stats window (or hide it behind the chat as normal). Instead one would have 2 tiny window that just scrolled hit and being hit numbers that could be easily moved and seen. The more I think about it though, I kinda like seeing what does what during combat in the combat window so....scratch my idea, heh.
